Both of these teams have taken a bus 3 hours away from NKY to face off in the AIT. Dixie beat East Carter 47-38 in round 1, but will be without 2 of their bigs... 6'8 starting center Mitch Bolin and 6'4 athletic wing Matt Isbel. Holy Cross needed overtime to defeat winless Ashland 65-59 in round 1. The Indians were hitting 3's like it was their job against Ashland's 2-3 zone. Who wins and why?

Back to the HC / Ashland game... Bezold isn't really big, but he has a high motor crashing the boards. HC lives and dies by the 3... it will be interesting to see how many open looks they get against Dixie's M2M. Ashland played a 2-3 zone for the majority of the game.... which gave HC a lot of open looks from 3.

Yes

Some old guy warned me about you

yes

You and your genius thinking can argue with google... https://www.google.com/maps/dir/3010+Dixie+Hwy,+Edgewood,+KY+41017/1500+Blazer+Blvd,+Ashland,+KY+41102/@38.5499614,-84.8248566,8z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m13!4m12!1m5!1m1!1s0x8841b818b681ff5b:0x8ec96595d40fc721!2m2!1d-84.586225!2d39.023483!1m5!1m1!1s0x8846766f67a323e7:0x8664bd4902249f64!2m2!1d-82.6631005!2d38.4542937

I wish... Dixie is without 2 key players this tourney... Mitch Bolin 6'8 and Matt Isbel 6'4 are both MIA. Dixie gave significant minutes to JV guys yesterday... at one point 3 of them were in the game at the same time. The only time Dixie had everyone, and stuck to their main 8-man rotation was against Taft. Everything else has been potpourri. With that said, after watching HC struggle against Ashland I like Dixie's chances... by a lot.

"bless my heart?" oh yeah, you're one who likes to stir the pot... I don't know how you calculated the driving time, but it's a 2.5 hour drive.

Holy Cross and Dixie sure did drive a long distance to play this one. Would have been nice to have been on different sides of the bracket.
