Pretty sure the previous Bellevue coach scheduled a two year contract Cricket 91.

Campbell, Brossart & Scott were all once on the 36th.

McCoy was steady under the circumstances. The Defense had their best game of the season. 50 yard field goal by New was the play of the game. Ozzie Sheehan was the best player on the field.

Dixie very well may win all of their remaining regular season games.

Great news for probably the best shooter in the region this season. Will he have a chance for playing time his freshman season?

Bellevue did win a couple of football titles thirty something years ago, and had a little success in basketball over half a century ago....and I guess they won a couple races. But the reality is that Bellevue, Newport and Dayton should be combined. They could probably put together a competetive school. They would have enough students to allow them to stop catering to the kids and their parents. If the kids didn't want to act right, ship them to the Campbell correctional school. That way the teachers could get something done in the classroom and the enabling of these students and parents could be thwarted. I do not think it is a snub of the nose to point out that other cities in just as bad (worse in many cases) socieoeconomic situations are getting it done in the classroom while places like Bellevue and Newport continue to fall behind. Of course it would make too much sense to combine the three...you would save too much money by not paying 3 Principals, 3 Superintendants...etc

should be a good game. It was a good half last year. Perhaps if Pike and a couple others do not have to play both sides of the ball Dixie could put 4 quarters together against the Birds?

Goose is a great kid. He is also a great competitor...just seems to have that extra motivation to give everything he has. Wherever he ends up playing at the next level will be lucky to have him.

If he says yes alot and has been neutered he will be a perfect fit.

It would not be too much of a stretch to suggest Zeke could play basketball too lol.

Neither Doleman or Neltner were prototypical big men like Jake or Jack. And Mustang, Jake has nothing to be embarrassed about. There has already been a poster who has stated he would take Jake defensively. My goal from the get go was to talk about the best centers the area has seen. I think it is the ultimate compliment to be compared with one of the areas best evet. Even if you come in a distant second, third, fourth or fifth. Simply put, the comparison is the best this year vs possibly the best ever. Why not talk about it? If I was a player I would be interested to know how people think I stacked up. The results would certainly not be anything to be embarrassed about.

No disrespect taken here. I agree. I just thought "if" Giesler is the best big man the area has seen since Jennings, how would they stack up? Has there been a better big man since Jennings?? If not, it is remarkable that the best big man the area has seen in 20 years can't be seriously compared to Jack. How about the 20 years before Jennings? Anyone?

Who do you take? Bingo or Big Jake?? Or, has there been a better big man over the past 20 years???

I don't know if it was the Bird's pulling away as much as it was the Wildcat's giving it away in the 3rd quarter.

Championship is at 8:00 Saturday

A point of emphasis was put in place this season to call the hand check foul more closely. Other than the start of a game, or when a coach is heard pointing them out, I have not noticed these calls being made more often than years past. Hand checking gives the defense an unfair advantage. It is more evident to me when a team is pressing. In the 9th, I have witnessed Newport, Holmes and Lloyd even grabbing/holding in the backcourt without being called for fouls. Holy Cross was the one team I saw who pressed without constantly using their hands. Agree? Disagree? Has hand checking been enforced?

I would say Newport would have been in the middle pack a year ago. But anytime you have one of the best players in the region you have a chance. Especially when you have a good supporting cast. I don't think St. Henry, Cooper, Highlands or Newport have anyone close to being the best player in the region this season. In fact last years Newport team even without Foster could probably beat those four teams this season.

St. Henry, Newport, Cooper and Highlands from your list have no chance to win the region. Lloyd, Conner, Holy Cross & Ryle would have to have a ton of luck and good fortune to go all the way. CovCath, Boone & Holmes have a shot...but will need a favorable draw. You have the top two correct. Dixie and NewCath are the favorites.

No doubt about it. Cheetum was the difference maker. I was only pointing out that the game was not "out of hand" up until 2 minutes to go. He had been taken out with about 4 minutes to go in the 4th after Lloyd had pushed their lead over 20. The lead was shrinking fast however and he quickly re-entered the game.

Really? I was there and Bellevue had cut it back to 13 points in the 4th quarter. They had the ball with about 3 minutes to play and a chance to get it back to a 10 point deficit. Coach Key must have had a feeling they were being challenged because he put Cheetum back in the game. Bellevue turned it over their next two trips down the court...then the game was over.

The Colonels are 20 points better on paper.

Guard play will be the difference. Highlands will have an awful tough time with Hatton.

Congrats to the Camels. Do these two play again this season?

Who was the better High School running back. Both took their respective schools to the state championship but came up empty. Alexander was a fantastic defensive player as well.
