I can assure you the mandate from the board was that there be no school activities on MLK day, sports or otherwise. As for Sunday's Boone County schools are not permitted to practice or play on Sundays throughout the season. There are exceptions in the board bylaws for athletics that allow them to practice/ play in the event of a state championship on Sundays or Holidays like MLK day. My assumption is that Cooper was allowed this exception on Thanksgiving Day as they were preparing for at State Title. Boone I am positive was not given the ok to practice and prepare for the SK game.
I don't think anyone should care about SK they aren't even in our region. This was a good game but in the long run really means nothing. Conner needs to worry more about the district games and tourney first.
How so? Let's do some math.... Won by 6....out scored Conner 21-8 in the fourth so out scored them by 13. 13-6=7. Big lead? Since when is 7 a big lead?
I am not sure who "stan" is but i will assume you are talking about Stamm, I am also not sure what game you were watching if you think they ran out of gas. The difference in this game had nothing to do with depth. I think Highlands went only 8 deep to Conner's 7. The difference in this game was the press by Highlands that Conner had trouble breaking in the second half. To many turnovers and fouls for Conner. To say that Highlands wins this game 70% of the time is stretch, considering Conner controlled 3 quarters of this game convincingly.
The league may frown on this but in cases like Ludlow, St. Pius, etc. it is allowed for numbers. I think there is a process of approval though that some may not follow. I think you find it more on the girls side than boys. I think it would be interesting if the League went to a Varsity, JV, 6th Grade format.
I find it facinating that so many people are trying to build cases and make comments that they do not deserve recognition. Must mean they have a lot of people worried! Keep feeding the fire in these girls and give them the fuel to do what some say they can't.
Then maybe they should have stopped setting the illegal screens and those calls wouldn't have been made. The red that made those calls is probably one if the best if not the best in the area. In fact he worked a few state games. You asked what is the extent of homering, then answered it? I didn't see any if that in the game.
So did you watch live or on I-high? If online you were definitely looking from a different lens. I watched every game SW played and according to that coach he got homered in each. I think he needs to coach more complain less. The Boone game the refs did make a lot of bad calls but not the extent of homering IMO.
I believe the rule is once they take possession of the ball they cannot cross the line. Someone correct me if I am wrong on that.
Secondly, I think this thread is veering off course.
