Mustang

As a coach I always wanted to be in a position to WIN or go overtime in that situation. In this case the Cards were in a Lose or Go Overtime situation. It hasn't always worked out for the best for me, but if I were in that situation tomorrow, I would have fouled them, going for a steal, and allowed myself plenty of time 10-15 seconds to respond to the new situation - never just sat back and taken a bullet - but that's me.

Proud of our guys who went down fighting Monday night in Mount Sterling. With 11 days to prepare for our 10th Region Tournament date with Mason County, Coach Ben Franzen devised an effective game plan that put us in a position to win. Brossart led 25-24 just prior to the half when the Royals scored seven points on two 3-Pointers (plus a free-throw), giving them the advantage going into the second half. Both teams put up 11 points in the third period, as the Mustangs continued to trail by five. On a few occasions in the final stanza, we cut it to a one-possession ballgame, but while trailing late, and having to come out and get them, Mason took advantage and drew off to the 8 point win. Brossart closes the book on the 2024-25 season with a 15-16 record after coming off of a 3-26 campaign a year ago. We won the 10th Region "A" Classic earlier in the season, and played in the 10th Region Big Show for the first time since 2022. We will graduate three seniors - our leading scorer Parker Mulberry, along with Dom Hadden and Alex Combs. Ben Franzen has been tabbed the 10th Region Class "A" Coach of the Year for the second time in his three year tenure.

This was GRC's fourth consecutive 10th Region Championship and their 18th overall. Kennedy Stamper, Teigh Yeast, Ciara Byars, and Jallenn Green were all named to the All-Tournament Team from GRC. Brossart was represented on the All-Tournament Team by Hadley Eviston, Kylie Smith, and Zoee Meyers. They will play a formidable Franklin-Simpson team Wednesday night at 6pm in Rupp Arena in the Girls State Tournament. Side Note: I remembered our old BGP favorite member Gold Sunrise (Royetta Stamper) on our broadcast of the game with a photo displaying the two of us, and by drinking an Ale8 in her memory.

This is the fifth year out of the past six that we have played in the 10th Region Final Four, having won it in 2021. Last year we lost in the first round to Scott.

Depends pretty much on whether it is daylight or dark.

I've looked at the video and our guy did make contact and did not leave his feet in doing so, which resulted in Davie going down, so I take back everything that I said previously. Knowing our player who made play he would not have intended to hurt him, and I mean it. He plays hard and my feeling is that he arrived too late to go up and contest the shot, resulting in what took place. Were it intentional I think he would have gotten lower in order to get under him, which is not the case. He hit Davie while in an upright position. I too would have preferred to see him go up and contest the shot, but he would have had to be a step quicker in order to do so, and I am convinced that would have been his first option. The fact that they were coming from opposite directions also contributed to what took place. I'm really sorry to hear that Davie might be injured. It would be a major setback to the Camels going into the regional tournament.

OK, you [r00bably had a better look at it than I did. Is Davie OK? Appeared Gimpy coming out for the second half.

I will have to watch the film, but I saw the play entirely differently, and thought that he was barely touched, and simply went strong and missed it. There was no upper body contact at all.

Not our best showing. Overwhelmed by the Camels who posted periods of 19, 20, 26, and 16 for 81, and put 11 players in the scoring column, led by Garyn Jackson with 26, while winning their 12th consecutive 37th District Championship. The Camels improve to 22-9, and the Mustangs even their season record at 15s. Parker Mulberry was the lone Brossart double-figure scorer with 12 points. as we could only muster 6, 10, 14, and 9 on the night. Mulberry and Carson Hesse were named to the All Tournament Team from Brossart while Austin Davie, Xavier Fancher, and Garyn Jackson were so designated for the Camels.

With Campbell County being the district top dog for the past 11 years, and Calvary Christian normally brining up the rear, that leaves Brossart and Scott to battle it out for the other spot in the championship game and for a 10th Region Tournament berth.

Happy for this group of players, Coach Franzen, and especially our three seniors who have weathered some tough times with us leading to this point.

Unfortunately the prize behind Door Number Two is Lloyd.

Cause for celebration in Villa Hills.

Should Read - and advance to the Northern Kentucky Freshman Tournament Final Four at Covington Catholic

Bishop Brossart avenged an earlier season 61-27 loss to Holy Cross back on December 11th to advance to the Northern Kentucky Freshman Tournament at Covington Catholic. We are very proud of this group of freshman who exemplify the term TEAM. This game came down to the last shot, when Brossart's Brady Rowe found Cohen Trauth going backdoor for the game-winner. Brossart will play Beechwood in the Saturday at 1pm Semi-Finals. Beechwood defeated Lloyd in double-overtime.
