Ethan Sellars led a parade of 3-point shooters in an incredible shooting performance. It was 46-27 at the half behind Sellars 26 points. Sheppard 34 points but had 10 turnovers. Ashland 15 of 26 on 3-pointers and Sellars 37 points (14 of 21 from field, 7 of 10 from downtown). Cole Villers 19 points. Colin Porter 14 points and 12 assists. Zander Carter 11 points and six rebounds.

Ashland beats #2 and previously undefeated North Laurel.

That’s not home cooking, that’s home broiling.

Ashland struggling early this year. They just don’t seem to have that great offensive flow they had last year, but I’m sure they’ll get it figured out. They’re too talented not to.

How bout them Tomcats!!!! Defense wins Championships, and Ashland had one heck of a defense all year long. So proud and so happy!!!!

I'm so extremely proud of this Tomcat team and especially my nephew Jack Alley. He has worked so hard the last 4 years, and it's so exciting to see him reap his rewards.

Nice win for Russell. To be honest, this win really surprises me. Isn't Johnson Central on of the favorites to win the 15th?

Yes, the game Tuesday is at Transylvania. Ashland was 9-20 from 3 point range for the game. The Porter kid is something to watch. He had 27 points tonight and just does an amazing job facilitating the offense. Ashland came out sluggish offensively and defensively in the first half, but you just know this team is capable of exploding at anytime. It’s the best, most fundamentally sound team I believe I’ve ever seen. Their Achilles heel will be their lack of depth and lack of size, but I believe they’re capable of beating anyone in the state.

Ashland led 49-20 at the half, and Coach Mays emptied the bench midway through the 3rd quarter. I did find out after the game that Inion County had kicked 3 of their top players off the team this week.

Should be even tougher to defend on a college court.

Ashland is the real deal. They move the ball better than any team I’ve seen around here in my lifetime. And this team can flat out shoot. They struggled in the first half, but shot an amazing 15-21 in the 2nd half.

Ashland improves to 10-0 and will face Warren Central in tomorrow’s AIT semifinals.

You left out Ashland. They also made the Final 8 last year.

Ashland continues to impress as they beat undefeated and 3rd ranked team from West Virginia. The Tomcats improve to 9-0.

I’m not sure about Sellars. George Washington was ranked #3 preseason. They are currently 4-0, and beat East Carter 68-35 last weekend. Ashland will have their hands full today.

Ashland beats Capital for the 2nd time in a week. This time in Charleston, WV in George Washington’s tournament. Ashland will play George Washington tomorrow in the tourney championship.

So I can post a Facebook status update that my Tomcats are the #2 team in the state. :sssh::lol2::lol2:

You’re right Ashland is very young, but they also have some very good seniors in Phillips, Hudson and Bradley.

Ashland played without one of their top players in sophomore Ethan Sellars. Sellars was nursing an ankle injury. So excited about this Tomcat team.

Just an awesome win for this young group of Tomcats.

I thought Ethan Hudson was the leading scorer.

GRC leads 42-40 at the end of the 3rd. Ashland is without one of their top players in sophomore Ethan Sellars. Ethan has some sort of ankle injury.

Not sure, if I had to guess I would go with Mike Flynn.

Ashland takes down the 3rd ranked team from West Virginia. The Tomcats improve to 6-0, and become the 1st school in Kentucky, and only the 6th in the nation to reach the 2,000 win total.
