Everyone gets a trophy

Lloyd can beat Dixie. If Key has scouted them Dixie has been exposed the last 4 games. Don't let Cam shoot and sag in the lane on Bradfield.

The tall coach with hair slicked back I'd guess. Fredricks is his name.

Dixie 1940s style basketball 32. Cooper 70

I'm saying in the tournament I don't think they played a team with a winning record

Very true their side was weak. But it's freshman and it should be more about development. Cov cath has done a nice job with the tournament.

Dixie frosh is a good team but the walk to the ship. I don't think they beat anyone with a winning record

They only lost 2 games and all the rest were blowouts

He didn't score 60 against Conner...I was at the game. He had a very nice 3rd quarter where he hit some deep 3's, but after that he didn't do much more. He is a very athletic player who is physically larger than most kids his age.

I stand corrected it was 57 against camp Ernst The following game was 42

Salter played

He plays aau. And he plays up in aau .He has had games where he scored 60? I believe against Conner last year. Holmes coaching wanted him to play up. His mother chose for him not to play up. Which for her reasons was correct.

If Tez is only 13 then he reached puberty when he was 10. The kid has had defined muscles for 3yrs.. He is a very good player. Hopefully he keeps growing..

I promise he is 13 and birthdate is in late may.

What news was that on? I couldn't find it and I'm intrigued. What grade is he? Has he played on multiple teams at the same time to get to 1000 points? That is a boatload of points for a middle schooler ....

4pm wcpo news it was a short segment. He's 13 year old 8th grader. He should be in 7 grade. Only played at Holmes during middle school. The true point total is almost 1300. Tez is range when he crosses half court. His twin brother may be the better player in the future.

I haven't found the link but it was on at the 5pm news yesterday.

@Basketball12345 I like your post too, but I believe that the Refs authority starts and stops with the horn. When they try to dictate start times and the length of halftimes, then I think I have the right to call them on it. Those types of things fall on the league rules or the host school

I agree. I coach 6th grade my kids get 30 min warm up. If 7 grade game is starting after their start time they get like 5 min. I agree if rule says 3 min overtime that it should be. All that said no one should be on the officials. Let's teach the kids not everything is fair or cut and dry. Play thru the adversities not complain. When u take your mind off just playing hard you stop reaching your potential.

If you can tell me you do not give trophies for finishing in second place, you are my new hero!!

Great post!

There's only one winner. Work harder if you want a trophy. My parents cry over play time. Work harder and earn it.

I have 4 parent ejection 1 season of middle school. My kids are not allowed to talk with refs period. If they ask a question they can answer yes sir no sir period. I never talk with refs I do my job coach with the circumstances I have been dealt. Ref is the boss play by his interpretation of the rule.

I have been coaching middle school and aau for many years. Most coaches and parents have it all wrong. I have never had any issues with officials it's always the parents. As coaches we are trying to teach kids that there is adversities. Some officials are not very good but they are trying their best. No official is trying to screw a team or a certain player. When I get a bad official I preach to the kids play thru it figure it out overcome. When you start saying the officials suck or is screwing us you are starting to make excuses. That's the problem with the youth today instead of figuring out they make excuses. As long as an official is running and in position I'm good with call good or bad for me. Remember we are trying to raise good human beings by using sports as a tool. Your son is not going to the NBA and if happens to go the bad official is not going to lessen his chances. The suburbanite parents is the most major problem with youth sports stop living your dream thru the kid. Don't harp on the official or the kid bad game. Harp on the good attitude or lack of hustle. The official misses calls and your kid misses free throws and layups. I have coached 1000s of games and never has a call cost me a game. After the game I always ask how free throws how many layups how many times did we lack on defense.

Where is the tournament played at this year?

My mistake.

 

It's Lloyd Memorial vs NCC.

What time? Ludlow?

Landmark is the best local ball Go to mid America in Louisville. For real bball

Does St.Pius still play in NKMSL?

Yes

The whole hold back thing is a joke my sone is 10 in the 5th grade going against some kids who are almost 12 years old huge disadvantage.

I agree the kid should play sports from birthday I don't care what grade you are in. Parents way of giving their kid an advantage early on. They all use the academically my child was behind. If you kid is dumb they should spend the time making the grades and catching up. not holding back to be a star for awhile. Delusional parents living their dream thru the kid.

What 7th grade age kid wouldn't be a stud playing 6th grade. CC politics is a joke.

There's lots of hold back kids. What's new

The game wasn't close

OK I have to ask an obvious question.

 

Would this possibly be The Scott Draud's son?

Yes

Was Allen able to stay out of foul trouble tonight?

He finished with 3 fouls. He didn't shoot enuff
