Ruthsatz is an excellent coach. Having said that, he's 3-5 vs. Holmes.
Yes, 3-5 but the trend is changing....
2011-12 : 0-2
2012-13 : 1-2
2013-14 : 2-1
2014-15 : ??? time will tell.

Yes, CovCath's coaches are out coaching the NewCath & the other teams in NKY.
This is the 4th season for Ruthsatz & company.
Every year they have exceeded the preseason projections & polls.
CCH coaches game plans are excellent, they find the opposing teams strengths, then they take it from them.
They coach their players up, instill confidence in them. Just look at what they've done with payers like Pauley, Tobler, Schult, B.Heppler, Keller, Romes, Theobald.... they find out what strengths a player has , then they use it to their advantage as a team.
Not buying the tradition thing either.
Ruthsatz is the new CCH tradition...hard nosed defense, leave it all on the court or you'll be on the bench, next man up, roll players, no I in team.
CovCath has had good to great high school talent over the years but have never won as consistently in the last 40 years as they are now.
They are becoming known in the state as a contender not a pretender.
Ruthsatz & company are the best in the state, IMHO.

Buying a rifle, especially a first rifle is a difficult choice. All the calibers mentioned will kill a deer with proper bullet placement,
proper placement being the key word. Proper bullet placement comes with practice. People tend to shoot/practice more with a gun that doesn't kick as much. In my opinion you should consider the 7mm-08. It will flat out kill a deer at 300+ yds, it's easy to shoot & it will kill elk size animals at reasonable ranges.

Just to clarify.....
Tennis Courts are currently under construction & will be ready in the spring of 2015.
Academic building is next priority- Will house new Science Technology Engineering Math (S.T.E.M) Program & fine arts.
Football stadium renovation with lights will be done next as monies allow.
NOTE: lights will not come without facility upgrades due to safety & access issues.
Gym renovation & field house will be down the road.

CCH out rebounded in the game 39 to 31[/b]
As a Cov Cath fan .......this worries me moving forward.

Doesn't Joe Fredrick have a nephew coming from Cincy that is supposed to be really good?
Transferred from Moeller to CCH on Wednesday
-
Word out of Park Hills is Scott is staying.
I hope that this is correct.
Scott R, Tony B., Joe F, Otte, Stevens, Sorrell, Elliott are one of, if not the best in the state.
Adding Joe F to the staff this year took it over the top.
What they have accomplished in 3 years is incredible, to say the least.
-
1.+ Sure he doesn't have the resume that a Booher had from Shelby Valley or even Coach R. coming from St. Anthony's but Tony can handle the gig.
Scott Ruthsatz has done a great, awesome, exceptional job at CCH but he was not a slam dunk to succeed as a head coach.
His coaching history was very limited started out as an assistant At Heidelberg College, Head Coach a St Mary's Central(Very Small School) 500-600 kids K-12 & an assistant at St.Anthony's NJ for 3 years. He was not the top or even an upper level assistant for Coach Hurley but obviously he was paying attention & learned how to coach.

[quote name=When is CCH getting a new gym, their prep section takes over half of the bleachers..
Very fun to watch...[/quote]
NEVER!
It's called home court advantage.
-
Who wins & why?
Not familiar with BG what do they have?
What can we expect?
-
CCH win because they're balanced all 5 starters can beat you. Clay co let the shoot 3's ruthsatz & heppler made them pay. Bardstown took the 3 game away from CCH so Mark the shark took care of business down low. They will continue their winning ways tonight!
-
100% sure they stay in the family or coaching tree? Interesting that they went outside last time to get Scott.
For most it wasn't a big surprise that they went outside the "family tree" when they hired Scott.
Bob Rowe wanted the culture of the program to change.
The only way that was going to happen was to start over.
-
Most significant infusion to a 9th Region Program in a long long time IMO. If there is no Ruthsatz family in NKY IMO they dont win the Region or have as much success as they have had the past 3 yrs. Great player and great coach. Whoever went out and found him should be rewarded in a big way.
I hope I get this point across without taking away from Nick's leadership & outstanding play on the court. As good as Nick is, and he is very good. But I believe in the big picture, Scott Ruthsatz & his coaching staff is what has made the biggest difference to the program. The entire culture has changed within the CCH basketball program. They now develop player skills, instilling toughness, play hard nosed defense, players give 110% or they don't play, they play for championships....
this is not your dad's CovCath basketball program! It is far better.

Congratulations to the Cov Cath on a great regional tournament!
Interesting the way it played out over the past 2 years.
2013 Holmes beats CCH in the regular season.
CCH beats Holmes in the district finals.
Holmes draws the assumed tougher side of the bracket with Cooper & NCC.
Holmes goes on to be regional champs
2014 CCH beats Holmes in the regular season
Holmes Beats CCH in the district finals
CCH draws the assumed tougher side of the bracket Ryle & NCC
CCH wins regional finals.
Rivalries like this make high school basketball great!
-
CovCath will be ready for the rematch and wins by 8.
-
Not sure NCC had an "off" night as much as the CovCath defense made them work hard for everything.
CovCath made it difficult for NCC to get good looks the entire game.
I think fatigue played a part in NCC missed free throws late in the game.
-
What do you mean by the bolded?
Let me start off by saying Nick Ruthsatz is a very good player that any team would love to have.
He deserves all the accolades that he gets. CCH fans are happy to have him.
But his team mates tend to get over shadowed by him, same thing happens at Dixie with Hatton, NCC with McDonald, Holmes with Bolden....these team are the best of the best in the area because they have high quality players around their stars.
-
He is the brother, I assume, of Billy Schult who played there a few years ago. Is that correct?
You are correct. Mark is Billy's younger brother.
Not surprised that Mark doesn't receive much love. No one seems to understand that CCH has very good players beside Nick R. Same thing happened to the seniors on last years team.
Not surprised
-
If CCH continues to play the way they did last night, they will have a very, very good chance of winning the region.
Team ball, going through offensive rotations, getting the open shot, taking advantage of the open looks & swarming defense.
Tip of the hat to Mark Schult on an outstanding performance. He came ready to play, seized the opportunity & played like a senior leader.
Well done Mark!
I think CVH needs some kudos as well. Ryle's #20(sorry I don't know his name) came out on fire, I believe he had 11 after the first quarter. CCH coaching staff decided enough was enough and gave CVH the task of face guarding him. CVG totally shut him down, sparking the CCH second quarter run, game over.
-
This thread would not even be happening if Mike L would let it go.
He continues to make a fool of himself when Holmes plays CCH somehow trying to prove something to CCH.
There is no reason for him to yell at the CCH coaches & players during the games.
I'm sure he doesn't act like that when Holmes plays other teams.
-
The Breds need to pack their bags, they're headed to Rupp.
-
Had nothing to do with "little Johnny's" playing time.
It was about the head coach loosing the control/respect of the players.
It went on too long, it was time for a change.
When Mike left people still respected him but his action over the past few years towards the CCH coaching staff & players is causing people to reconsider what Mike L is all about.
-
Coach Fredricks is indeed a coach and a very good one at that. Gives a lot of very good insight to the players about the game, how to play it and deal with it mentally. The players look up to him as they understand his background. Coach is very intense and competitive, brings a lot to the program from top to bottom!
Spot on TOG!
Coach Fredrick brings a whole new level to the coaching staff, very positive addition. Having played at the highest level in college basketball ( Notre Dame) he knows what it takes to develop kids. Best thing with coach Fred is he can relate to the kids and provide positive motivation.
Great pickup for the Colonels.

Bishop is another one I like for CCH, plays hard nosed, decent handle, likes to take to the rim.
Gunner Schuh also has impressed, very smooth under control player.
Was Dave Wirth fired, or did he resign?

Does it matter?
It was time for him to move on.
