Wow if the 9th is the gold standard of officiating that bar is not set very high!!!!!

Ally Johnson had 26 and 27 points in the 2 game Tiger Holiday Tournament.

Hard to run a motion offense into a packed in defense protecting the paint. The Camels seem reluctant to shoot the outside jumper this maybe something they will need to work on as they certainly should see more zone defense the rest of the year..

Proffitt - 53 / Creech - 63 Creech wins the individual battle of these 2 scoring machines.

Some nights you get 1 average official, 2 below average officials and they make this post relevant. The nights you get 2 great officials and 1 average nobody complains..

Newbie to following the 9th, do the officials work in teams? My overall impressions is that they call a different game than the officials in the 10th. They don't seem to be as consistent from game to game. They also seem to favor the traditional power schools in the region when calling games, this is based on games I've seen in person this year.

Grigsby also played before the 3 point line was adopted. Her numbers are incredible for the amount of time she played at the varsity level.

Ally Johnson Beechwood June Buchannon 27 pts, Boone County 26 pts

Congrats Lexie hard work when no one is watching equals success when every one is watching.....

Ryle They handle Conner's pressure and then their size is just to much for the Cougars.

Scott by double digits

I have seen both girls work out and having watched both in person. IMO Igo is bigger, stronger, if they played 1 on 1 I believe Igo wins head to head. Now they both do different things for their current teams and we are talking about 8th graders who are both awesome players with lots of potential. If the question is today who is better head to head 1 on 1 it's Igo.

Igo is bigger stronger faster (2015/2016). Ryles 8th grader is a really good player but not the same physically. Igo is already getting D1 looks I think Ryles is a couple years away from her's ( but she will get them ).

No - CC is not shooting it well from behind the arch. The confidence does not seem to be there like last year as their shooters are passing up looks that they would have taken last year.

Maybe this game shakes the rust out for CC, both teams like to play 94 feet. Should be a good one..

I like the way Ryle is playing so far this year, this team has never really lived up to it's potential in the past. This year they seem to be playing to their talent. I hope this is a great game looking forward to seeing it. Ryle advantage Senior Leadership,Size Holmes advantage Athleticism Ryle weakness................................................. Holmes weakness ............................................ Just keeping with the theme on this thread, wouldn't want to upset any players before tonight's game..

NDA was playing a really solid game executing what appeared to be a sound game plan. The "T" was unfortunate at such a critical time in the game. NDA fought through it though tied the game on a nice out of bounds play hitting a big 3 then Klye K. for CC made a huge shot from the short corner for the win with 2 seconds left.

my top 3-5 in NKY but they are not there yet. I respect your opinion who do you consider the top 3-5 in NKY that they match up with?

Clyde -? When the NDA coach got the T last night CC was on a wide open break away for a layup. Should the official have let the CC player score then hit the coach with a T. Losing the breakaway actually cost CC potentially 2 points in this exchange. layup, T, ball vs t,ball

CC offensive relies on the 3 to open up the passing lanes and back door cuts. NDA did a fantastic job of playing pack line defense inside out and dared CC to shoot the 3. Because of CC success last year defenses are going to game plan around TC,TJ so the open looks they saw last year are not so wide open this year. They don't look the same in the eyes either, shooting less than 20% will shake your confidence and for a shooter confidence is a big deal. Hard fought game Jenna Martin can flat out play no lack of confidence with her give her some space and she is knocking down that 3.

Beechwood doesn't have a freshman team. If anyone has a line on some girls I'm sure Coach Houston would take their call... maybe some of the girls that are being displaced at HC would be interested..

If CC hits shots they win, if they continue to struggle from behind the arch then hard to call a favorite.. CC is more talented than NDA individually, however, talent does not always determine the winner.

Thanks Clyde for the clarification... Another one for you tonight official blew the whistle and signal foul then the horn blew to sound the quarter. He then waved off the call. Should this have been a foul?

I saw the rare double foul called tonight at this game. Why is it rare?? Charge and block called on the same play by the officials. Then the officials gave the ball back to the offensive team who did not have the possession arrow. Pretty much sums up the ugly team basketball played tonight, interrupted by some great individual performances.. Saner - Boone County Clephane - Scott
