Congrats to Dixie on making it to the 9th Region finals!

Holmes 51 St Henry 37
Congrats to Holmes on the win! Good luck next round. Solid group returns next year for the Cru. Ives, Iloegbunam, Evans, Beetem, Kiepert, Smart, Kiepert and Millay, to name a few. A healthy Millay for a full season would a really good thing, especially with losing Benson.

Northern Kentucky Player of the Year
My guess is that the reason that Jake Walter is not in the conversation is because high school basketball is a guard’s game. Just the way that it is.

I think the ref was wrong
Not trying to thread jack....but this is something that has been bothering me. If you are a middle school ref, you need to understand some stuff. 1. If an 8th grade player is struggling to tie his shoe, it is not your place to say, "You are 14 years old. Why can't you tie your shoe?" 2. The act of tying shoes is a fine motor skill that not all children/students master. 3. AND--There are students who are high functioning, yet on the spectrum who have no other outward signs. 4. The tying of shoes, while others are impatiently waiting, is stressful enough without a ref making comments. 5. And a coach jumping in to tie the shoes sets the child up for more embarrassment. 5. Coaches/parents can try to prepare with double knots and velcro, etc. But no guarantees. 6. Bottom line: Just be nice. Don't judge. Find a way to encourage a kid, instead of putting him/her down. Check yourself at the door. Be the adult. BE THE DIFFERENCE.

St Henry 48 Notre Dame 32
Congrats to the Cru! St Henry was up 22-10 at the half. NDA fought back and got within 3. St Henry kept working and pulled ahead. Chisholm, Ives, and Benson played well. But it really was a fantastic team effort with some great contributions by Cline, Evans, Kosco, Beetem, Rice, and Handorf. And the student section contributed their enthusiasm as well. Fun team to watch!

Referee loses toupee
It is funny. Couple thoughts on this.... 1. Why would you wear a toupee if your job involves so much physical activity and physical contact? 2. I feel bad for the guy. He had a mishap...and now the whole world knows, and it will never go away.

Congrats to Cooper! Looks like it was a good game and a nice showing by the Rebels!

A gift so great.... I never thought it was even possible
That is so cool! I was very, very, young when my dad was a head football coach. I would love to see a video of one of the football games that he coached.

NKY Middle School Basketball 2017/2018
Then it appears that is the reason that 7th grade boys are playing in this league. IHM needs a 7th grade boys team to fulfill the 6 team requirement. Not saying that I agree...just saying that is probably why they are playing in the league.

NKY Middle School Basketball 2017/2018
What is the requirement to participate in the public school league? It used to be that the school had to field 6 teams----6th, 7th and 8th girls and boys. Is that still the case?
