He said something back and then went down the handshake line. Now I don't know who said what first or what was actually said. Both of these coaches were giving the officials a good deal of talk and I thought both were very close to getting technicals. I thought the way Hicks got his was a little fishy. The ref ran past him, and from my angle said something to him. I did not see Hicks body language change or him raise his voice. It did look like he said something but he wasn't looking at the official or in even in his direction. Next thing we hear is the whistle and the T. Hicks asked several times what he said and the officials would not answer. I have seen that official ref several games and he seems to have a little edge to him. I think this is one of those games where it just got away from the refs and they couldn't get it back under control.

They were consistent but bad... I think the one that "T" up Hicks should never ref again for his antics at the end. As he was leaving the court he started back towards Hicks and was yelling at him. Not sure what was said but IMO not the way you end the game as a ref.

She played tonight.

Practice?

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.

Boone County Schools were also unable to practice on Sunday (or any Sunday for that matter) or MLK day.

Conner by 16-20, I believe Johnson is still out.

I did t see fear! I saw frustration. Big difference.

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?

They were only down 8 to start the fourth, but you are correct the trap caused havoc on Conner.

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.

Maybe the hug could be the half time show on Saturday! Maybe it will make the evening news.

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'm still trying to figure out who's throwing a fit?

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.

Noted!

I have read a lot of your posts and a lot of times I disagree but this time your are 150% spot on. As a coach who coaches girls I couldn't agree more!

Why do we look at it any other way than region? That is what counts.
