Beechwood 2-0 Walton Conner 1-1 NCC Villa 1-0 Holmes SK 2-2 Brossart Some additional results. Please correct if I am wrong.

We’re matches played last night or cancelled due to weather? if played, does anyone have access to score lines?

I know Dean has had interest in the past and has some coaching experience - initial thoughts are he would be a great fit for the program. Like mentioned in other threads, if all the talent comes out for HHS they will have a formidable team. I am not familiar with Nick Breslin, on the other hand. Is he an alumni as well?

SK and Brossart will be a nice night cap for day 1. Campbell will have a good team this year - I like their matchup with CovCath.

To my understanding Collopy took a principal job at a local grade school which is why he stepped down as HC. Ron seemed to be a plug before and after Collopy. Collopy was an assistant for Ron before taking the reins. I know some in the NCC faithful rue the missed opportunity at having Pangallo but I do not think there is any ill-will toward the current coach, Luhn. -

Good to know you were not implying anything. Can you expand on this statement in your original post then? "but I can see how it might have been ignited by NCC" Are you just stating NCC's defensive style leads to higher emotions or dirtier plays? If so, can you describe for me NCC's defensive style you saw Saturday since it was not basketball? I am sure there are others in the NCC faithful that agree with you on the Pangallo statement. -

Are you implying Luhn/NCC's playstyle lead to Caleb being hurt? No style of play should "ignite" the undercutting of a player shooting a layup. I am a little disturbed with this take. -
Newport Central Catholic 98 Williamsburg 82

NCC loses a big piece in Caleb Eaglin. after a steal and breakout, a Williamsburg player speeds up and puts his body/shoulder through the air-borne Eaglin, causing him to have a very ugly landing. Eaglin did not play the rest of the game and appeared to have been seriously injured. The Williamsburg player was not ejected, but a few of NCC parents were, which boggles my mind. This was, unfortunately, the dirtiest play of basketball I have seen in the last 5+ years at the HS level. I hope the play is reviewed by KHSAA and Williamsburg HS. Caleb is a golf stud who, I imagine, has desires to play at the next level. It would be a shame if this play has any impact on his upcoming golf season. -
Final on 10/22. Brice Denigan scores the games only goal to give Ryle the 1-nil win. Ryle advances to play Dunbar on 10/27 at 7:30 in Lexington (Freddy D).

Congratulations to all the players. Great honors making a team/honorable mention.

This appears to be a pretty "fair" draw. I agree with The double deuce, I would have liked to see Cov Cath play NCC as I see them as the 4 & 5 in the Region. I will play "Rock Chalk" in the first round with all district winners advancing. From there, my guess is a Dixie v Highlands final game with the Birds hoisting the Regional trophy. Now to flip a few coins to see which game I attend...

A decent result for BBHS. They have some momentum heading into the weaker 10th region tournament. I can really only see 3 teams, MoCo, GRC, and BBHS, competing for the title. Of the 3, I would say MoCo is the favorite.- 1 reply

Highlands seems to be molding at the right time. Having seen all the teams in the 9th play, they will be my favorite heading into postseason play. -

The Grant County Men's Soccer program really seems to be turning a page. They are playing tougher games and competing harder than I have ever seen. A tip of the cap to head coach Dustin Smith.- 1 reply

Top 5 in the 9th Region Head to Head

Make this a top 4 removing CovCath and I agree with you. Too many inconsistent results for them. I would throw them into Tier II with Conner and NCC. I also believe the Tier II teams have the potential to bring the top 4 teams' season to an end come Regional play. All 3 have proven they can beat/compete with the top 4. I would give the nod to Dixie's staff. -

Great result for Fred Doug. Can Dixie use the loss as a fine-tuning instrument? -
Highlands 4 Newport Central Catholic 2

This is the best I saw Highlands play. I think the coaching staff fielded the correct starting XI. This was, arguably, the best technical game I have seen Highlands play as well. Passes were crisp and accurate. If the Birds play this way for the remainder of the season, it is hard not to consider them the favorites in the 9th. The student section wasn't too bad either. The NCC team that showed up Tuesday night is not a top 5 region team. They seemed a lot slower and more reactive than the previous 2 games I saw them play. Defense seemed undisciplined at all 3 levels of the pitch. I will say, even when playing poorly, the goals conceded are preventable. As dominant as Highlands was in the first half (can throw in the 2nd as well), both goals were scored on restarts. You have to credit Highlands game plan - keep the ball, spread the field, wear down the shallow-benched Thoroughbreds. The good thing for NCC, they get another chance at their rivals in a more meaningful game in October. -

I agree. My "little birds" tell me both Campbell County Fish eating schools handled the Cardinals. It is important to improve, learn, and progress through the regular season. Too much weight is put on W-L-D during the season. Coaching focus should always be improving and preparing for the games that distribute trophies to the winners.
