I am not buying this one. With one sophmore starting and 2 more first off the bench, Cam, Brady and others would have most definitely helped. With that said they are not there and SK has to move on without them. They have more than enough talent to compete for the region but they have to pull it together. JC looked better than he did against Cooper and they really need him to continue to get in the flow. SK is long but not overly quick, perimiter defense is a key for this team. If they can limit penetration from smaller quicker guards this will go a long way in their developement.

To me JC looks very frustrated. I have no idea what is going on but SK needs him to be the player he is capable of if they want to make a run at the 8th region title. The kid has a very versatile game and they need him filling the stat sheet in several catagories to make a good run.

I took your not necessary comment the wrong way. Here is my SK take on it. The kid has way to many positive points to his game to let shooting dictate his effort and he did that last night. I believe he will be a better player down the stretch because of these types of moments

What I mean is, how can you judge if it wasn't warrented if you weren't there.

Yeah not necessary moment, glad you could see that from the Finn last night.

Was at the game and as always Cooper played good D. I thought this was the best defensive effort that I have seen this year from SK. Entertaining game, SK got down 11 early and battled back. I don't think it was either team's best offensive game but both played hard. As for Sean and JC, JC was in foul trouble and eventually fouled out. Sean missed some open looks in the first half and when that carried over in the second half Coach Sullivan set him down early in the third and he never saw the floor again. It looked like Sean let his shooting woes carry over to the rest of his game and Sullivan was having none of that. Even with two kids fouling out he still did not go back to him. A true teaching moment.

That's a lot of WRs. Don't they already have Bryce Ashley and another kid playing there?

I heard some very good news for Dillon last week. I am not sure if the family would want it out so I will not repeat it. It is safe to say Dillon has some awesome opportunities both on and off the football field he is weighing. Opportunities his parents have every right to be very proud of.

Cooper at SK is on

A Just curious, is it time to put Bezold from HC into the POY conversation

Agreed, I like this one better than the CJ.

How was this team chosen?

Spring game at SK is free, but we do ask for peanut butter and jelly donations at the end of the year banquet at the end of January.

Very impressive. Congrats to the Bulldogs.

I am pretty sure the NKY Champ gets the Louisville champ next year.

Congrats Coach. I won't call you Sully since everybody knows that's your older brother! 100 grinded out wins for a coach that loves the grind. Cooper could not have picked a better coach to start and run their program. The best is yet to come I am sure.

Congrats to two hardworking young men

He is one of several that did not come back to the team. Some from Football some not.

I am sure that could be said for all of the QBs listed. Half of the games Racke played this year resulted in him being pulled prior to the end of the game, several of which he did not play any of the second half.

Since all of their numbers are very similar I will have to go by the eyeball test and since I did not see Fieger this year I will not comment on him. As for the other 4, if I had to pick a QB to win a HS football game I would take Racke. He was 5-0 against the other 3 this year with big games when going head to head. Admitting I only saw the other 3 against SK so my opinion is a little tainted.

Slusher from Beechwood was selected first team WR and LB so yes you can. I agree Hendrix should have probably been first team. The two glaring omissions for me are Cam Racke and Brian Carter. I could make a better case for both to be the best of NKY at their positions than not be on the list at all.

Congrats to all that made the list.

Didn't they move O'Hara to corner near the end of last year? Was that a temporary move? Him and Cooper Sheer could be the largest set of corners in the state next year.

Good news congratulations Collin.
