One Great Scorer

I’m surprised Bracken didn’t press. Might as well have when they were down 20 and see what happens. When I get him I’ll post how many wins Bracken County has at the Fieldhouse.

Just something about playing at Mason County. I don’t know if it’s the gym, or the fact it’s just the name Mason County that Bracken County cannot get over.

Brooksville.

Pendleton County #4 Robertson County #6 Mason County #11 in the region.

Bracken County the past 3 games: @ Robertson County - 18 Point loss @ Pendleton County - 18 Point loss @ Mason County - 33 point loss Very confused by this.

Final! Ouch.

Sorry meant 3 years ago in 2016. Mason/Augusta in the Region finals and Bracken lost to both by 5.

They didn’t have Turley or Thompson.

Ill take Mason County by 10.

I don’t care if the district is down or either the region as long as it is competitive. Hard to believe that just 4 years ago in 2015 the 39th District was the best in the Region.

1. Campbell County Still at number 1, another solid week for the Camels beating Holy Cross (76-54) and top 9th Region competitor Newport (62-48). Drew Wilson scored 25 and Reid Jolly added 22 in the win over the Indians, while Reid Jolly led with 13 and 10 in their win over the Wildcats. They have games vs. Dixie Heights and Newport Catholic. 2. George Rogers Clark A great rebound this week, beating Madison Central (57-46) where Jordan Graham put up 19, and Pendelton County (78-71) where Jared Wellman led with 22, and Graham following with another 19. The Cardinal defense did a great job holding Dontaie Allen to only 9 points at the half, but ended up with 34 points. 3. Scott The Eagles had a solid win over Mason County (73-41), and a loss to Henry Clay (49-66). No stats on KHSAA. 4. Pendelton County After a tough loss at GRC (71-78), the Wildcats rebounded for a 18 point win over rival Bracken County, where Allen had another stellar night putting up 51 points. The game wasn't close early, and had the Polar Bears down 14-2 to start the game, but they battled back early in 4th to 56-53, but after that it was all Wildcats on a 12-0 run. The host Augusta and play at Robertson this week. 5. Bishop Brossart Good week for Brossart winning a 77-71 overtime game at Lloyd Memorial, following that with an easy win over Ludlow. However, they lost senior forward Allen Jump to an unknown injury. 6. Robertson County The Black Devils beat Bracken County handily after being down by 9 in the 2nd quarter, winning 94-76, where Justin Becker put up 26 points. They then beat Ripley, OH in the Adidas Classic at Robertson County 77-70, led by Alex Schalch's 28 points. 7. Harrison County Without leading scorer Quenton Turley, the Thorobreds took a disheartening loss to Nicholas County in a district seeding game. It is great to see how much more fun a seeded district really is, because this game means something, and puts Nicholas County's foot in the door for a higher seed than the 4 we expected. But Harrison County usually will do this in the regular season, with all the talent they have, they just play... bad. Even without your leading scorer a win over Nicholas County should be expected. 8. Bourbon County A great week for the Colonels, with a nail bitting 59-55 win over Mason County, and a big district win over Paris, for the first time in a long time. 9. Paris A bad week for the Greyhounds losing two games to Bourbon County, and 68-79 to West Jessamine. Jaylen Bryars is averaging 19 points a game. 10. Mason County Still 0-4 for the Royals, losing to Bourbon County and getting blow out by Scott. Still a lot of turnovers for the very inexperienced group. But they could get their first win hosting Bracken County on Tuesday. 11. Montgomery County The Indians still are 0-4, with losses to Paris and West Jessamine this week. They play Bourbon County in a district seeding game next week. 12. Bracken County The Polar Bears dropped to 2-2 on the year after early competitive bouts with Robertson County and Pendleton County that led to late 18 point losses. Their week doesn't get easy as the head to Fieldhouse and try to beat Mason County for the first time in 20 years. They also host MoCo and St. Pat. 13. Calvary Christian The Cougars took a shocking loss to Ludlow 67-71, but beat St Pat by 23 points. Mason Rusch put up 33 points in the winning contest. 14. Augusta The Panthers have lost 3 straight 2 point games. They could easily be 4-2. The head to Falmouth this week, and host Ripley. 15. Nicholas County A solid win for Nicholas County over Harrison, but they still have blowout losses to Augusta and Bracken. 16. Silver Grove The Big Trains dropped 2 games to Bellevue and Villa Madonna. 17. Saint Patrick The young young saints are still winless at 0-4. They should have a good game with Williamstown this week.

Have you seen Mason County play?

I think Mason will win one of the two.

Ouch. Augusta has lost three two point games in a row.

Mason County comes in at 0-4, if they lose I think it will be their worst start ever. @sumoroyal

Bracken County hasn’t beat Mason County since February 2nd, 1999. The Polar Bears are coming off of 2 straight road losses to Robertson and Pendleton.

Yep. His career high was against Scott last week. He scored 53.

Lol just messing with you. It’s very hard to guard him. But when you do double or triple him he’ll just score any way or find the open team mate. I don’t think Bracken doubled him.

“Agree 100%. Dontae will work hard to involve all his teammates in the first half. 2nd half he will hammer down and comfortably salt this game away. PC by 20.” You were right except for comfortably salt this game away. It was a 3 point game in the 4th.

Bracken County did a pretty good job guarding him. Most of his points came from putbacks, and free throws. I think the refs got caught up in the game and called 0 fouls on Allen and some of them were blatant. But can’t really do anything about it because that’s how it will be all year. Bracken started off the game down 2-14, and shot 11/22 on free throws, which cost them a win. Great game from Tad Fisher, guarded Dontaie well in 1 on 1 when he was in that situation. Scored 18 points, 11 rebounds, 3/3 from Three.

Polar Bears lose by 18 after having the lead down to 3 in the 4th Quarter. WILDCATS (79) - Allen 51, Booth 10, Sullivan 8, Monroe 6, Thomas 4, POLAR BEARS (61) - Fisher 18, C. Jefferson 11, Zornes 9, Cummins 7, Hinson 7, N. Jefferson 4, Tucker 3, Bell 3

Mason County with 14 turnovers. Getting better.

This is Pendleton County’s first home game this season. Expect a huge crowd.

Harrison always has these types of seasons. Lost to Scott only 11, and then gets beat by Nicholas County.
