Walton looks to have one of the youngest coaching staffs around along with some of the youngest talent, exciting times ahead for the Bearcats if they keep on this road.

Bearcats kept a comfortable margin the whole second half to capture the 4th All A championship in school history.

Good call, missed that when I glanced at their schedule.

They played SK about a month ago and I know they have a lot of young sophomores getting their feet wet with varsity. I don't think they have any of the top 4 on their schedule so was wondering if anyone has seen WV recently and has seen the top 4 to see how far the gap is at this point.

Walton Verona will play Gallatin Co in finals of 8th all A on Saturday at WV. Can WV compete with the top 4 in the 8th at this point? Seems like they don't get much talk and just put a running clock on a hot Eminence team in the 3rd quarter.

Williamstown and Gallatin have a couple of the best guards in the region in Stanley and Wilson, Walton Verona has one of the best bigs in Miles. I think those 3 schools would be very competitive with top teams in the 8th. If Walton Verona had a guard like Stanley or Wilson I would put them right there at the top but I think that is their missing piece.

I believe pre season 8th region all A coaches ranking had Gallatin, Williamstown, Eminence and Owen as top 4. Walton Verona has beat Gallatin, Eminence and Owen but has yet to play Williamstown so it seems Walton Verona was overlooked prior to season start.

This should be a great tournament this upcoming week at Walton Verona. Really think you could pick a name from a hat and not go wrong. I think the favorites are Gallatin, Williamstown, Walton Verona (home court). Would not be surprised one bit to see Owen or Eminence knock off Walton Verona (no sure winner over a capable Trimble team) in the 2nd round. Looking forward to results of this tournament, thoughts?

Thank you. I have been looking but have not seen it the past 3-4 weeks.

Was wondering if I am just missing the 8th region recap/rankings or if we do not have anyone covering the 8th? It seems like all other NKY regions are covered pretty well, would like to know what things are looking like in the 8th since we have a lot of teams in the 8th that play teams in the 9th and 10th regularly.

I believe he is a basketball only kid, comes off the bench in JV. Not sure if he even plays on varsity, if so he does not get minutes in normal action.

Why were Hamiltons minutes limited?

3 wins this week for the young Bearcats, one spurt they had 4 sophomores and a junior in the game making a run. Exciting times ahead for WV.

Bearcats shot 16 of 34 from foul line, should not have needed overtime...

If the numbers are correct for Clinkenbeard this is very impressive win, if he gets going WV will be dangerous.

WV has 4 sophomores in their first year of getting significant varsity playing time, this won't be the last surprising score of the year for them in either direction.

WV lead from the start, never got closer than 12 whole second half and stayed around 20 point spread. Miles with 25 for the Bearcats.

Does anyone have information on when Dixie Heights next scrimmage is or the time for the December 23rd SK/Holy Cross scrimmage at Sk?

I have a short clip on email, not sure how to embed it. It is on windows media player. wv game.zip

No way they did not guess, the clocks at Grnat Co are up on the second level but obviously ref would never admit he guessed or estimated. Would love to see film.

I see what you are saying but that was a dead ball, this was a live ball.

For the refs on here. Number 24 for Walton slammed the ball in excitement as time runs out and they assess a technical and put .8 seconds on clock. Is this the right call?

Believe tie goes to the team with highest offensive point total, looks like SK has highest followed bt Grant then WV.

Bearcats grab the lead with under 20 seconds after trailing by 5-10 majority of game. WV gets the clean sweep with big wins at JV and Freshman levels...

Yes ukfan that means wv and sk each have one loss, if wv beats grant this week then all 3 would have 1 loss....
