Cuban Missile

No sir, just a friendly crosstown rivalry.

I too was puzzled by some of Beigers decisions. Thompson didn't start in the field and then comes into pitch? neither team had there top 9 out there..Roberts, Conner's senior ss, wasn't there. Dunn pitched excellent. The ump behind the plate for this game was pathetic imo. Both ways, his strikezone was an absolute joke. But I guess that's just part of it.:popcorn:

Final from Hebron. Albrecht goes 6 innings for the Cougars, Blake Maines closed it out.. Hunter Dunn started for Cooper and then Thompson finished it out. Both of Conner's runs were scored off Thompson in the 4th. Liechty led off with a single, Ryle hit a RBI double and would later score. Well pitched and solid defensive game for both teams. Conner is now 2-0 on the year after defeating Highlands 16 to 9 on Friday.

I personally saw Goe throw at a WKU showcase early last fall and the stadium radar gun was in use while he was pitching. He topped out at 86-87 and was consistenly around 84... He has a sharp breaking ball and above average control. Great Kid.

Yes, the only technical called was against Robinson in the third quarter. The NCC defense was focused in on him and he wasnt having his way like he did early. He is a great player... HM is correct, I vividly remember an instance when Flesch got to the rim, double clutched to avoid Giesler's block attempt and got nailed across the head and hit the ground.. No call. Only Flesch and Robinson came to play last night, the result clearly shows it...

I would have to agree with you HM. Problem is, usually it's only one (maybe two) that are on each night. The others tend to just "disappear" on the court at times. I think Liechty has been playing better as of late, he needs to continue his current ways if this team want to be a threat in 33rd...

I'm guessing that something that we don't know may have sparked this whole situation. I wish Vance the best of luck at NCC, he's a good kid and a talented player.

Maybe with a little luck, they will find their way... :banana:

Congrats to the Cougars!

I agree that Conner has a bright future on the hardwood... Unfortunately, their present team has been unable to beat Boone for quite some time. I see the Rebels and Brown being too much for the Cougars tonight. But who knows, maybe Coach Hicks has his team playing like they are capable of and if that's the case, Conner can beat anyone in NKY.

This one is gonna be a toss-up. Cooper, having recently picked up their 1st district win over Ryle, is clearly the hotter team. However, the boys in Hebron have stepped their game up a little bit as of late. This game is a must-win for both and I ultimately feel that the Cougars, playing at home, will come out on top..

Who's starting in his place?

Final from Hebron. Sounds like the Cougars showed up for this one, something they have failed to do many times so far this season...

The Cougars turned the ball over way too many times and shot the ball poorly from the free-throw line. Furthermore, the officiating out there was poor for both sides throughout the game, especially late in the 4th when Conner was up by a few points and trying to run the clock..

7 - Dixie 5 - Montgomery County 3 - Dayton 2 - Conner 1 - Highlands TB - Montgomery County

This one will be well worth the price of admission. I look for Thelan to have a impressive showing down low, the Cougars won't be able to handle him. However like Manny said, Conner's guards will decide the outcome of this one.. Conner 53 CovCath 50

7-Mason County 5-Augusta 3-Campbell County 2-Ryle 1-Conner TB- Mason Co.

Conner as a whole is going through major renovations and the gym portion of that project is complete. However, in my opinion, little was done to improve it. They added walkways on the second-level and also added new bleachers to the second-level. Conner's lockerroom is now new and from what I hear, very nice. Thats about it..

Sounds like he is pretty big... He may pose some trouble for Hodges & Robinson in the paint. However, I believe the Cougars have too much overall talent for SK to handle.

Just out of curiosity, how big is Doss?

I think I agree with Manny on this one. Early season matchup between two fierce rivals, both teams will be ready to play tommorrow night. Yet, Conner will be too much for the Jaguars in the end... Conner 62 Cooper 49

Who do you have in this 33rd district rivalry?

Pike did indeed play. Well fought game on both sides. Conner turned the ball over a few too many times but continued to battle back and keep it close. Dixie is a very well rounded team that will be near the top of the 9th all year. Will these two teams meet again later in the season?

Yes, Pike played.

Dixie wins by four.. great game on both sides.
