With 2 players now being hurt.. Starting to look alot like 2000 with Super getting hurt as well???!! Hopefully a different outcome thou tonight.

Did you not play any sports? I thought every athlete or person who played sports did believe in it. LTW Yes I DO!! ha-ha.... Sitting here at work watching the UK game on a little Tv we brought in.. ha-ha

Just a bit of history. The last time SW was in the final four of the region was in 2000 and it was on March 10th at 530 CNT time 630 EST time!! The game this year is March 10th at 6:30est. VERY WEIRD!! Only reason I remember this is because I was playing in the 2000 game against H-Burg.

Playing Harrodsburg for the right to go the 2000 12th Region Championship game. Lost by 4 to them. I fouled out with 1:45 left from a crap call when going for a loose ball. (Officiating was bad on both ends that game). 6 seniors on the team with a JR who could fill it up. 2 days before the game Isaiah Super tore his ACL in Practice. If we would have had him and his aver of 12 points a game we win and would have played Mercer Co in the championship game. Super tried to play in the game but just couldn't move and it was gutsy effort by him to even try. Even without him we had chanced to win just didn’t hit our FT's. Of course that is the same team (SW) that won the 48th district title that year out of the blue. We were loaded athletically but only had played as a full team that senior year after a couple people quit then rejoined their Senior year. 3 guys who had played all basketball and then 2 that came on from the football team that hadn't played since their freshman/soph years. Loaded SR class. (Blair, Boon, Merrick, Tingle, Maybrier, Skaggs, Gregory and one outstanding JR in Super) Those were the day’s Super stays healthy I still think we play in RUPP.

I was at one of the Holiday tourneys in Lexington and They where locked into a 1/2 court style game and got crushed. So I wouldn't say that. Come tourney time you need to be able to run 1/2 court sets.

Southwestern had 6 on the 1999 team. Lead by 2 Ky Allstar players Blair, and Boon.

Congrats Matt and to James. :ylsuper: I take great pride in knowing I helped get you there! ha-ha

I always like playing at Danville b/c of the Tradition there. Bell Co was fun if you wanted to play a football game then fight the refs after the game. Boyle Co great field and awesome fans it made for a great atmosphere. Enjoyed playing at South Laurel but only because there was great Scenery to look at and I am not talking about the Hills or country side!! :thumb: Of course no place like home SW!

Agree 100% Bucknut!!! Every Team has some curse they can't shake. Red sox finally got their curse off, the Bills never did. In sports it's all about match-ups, who plays the best that night. The Warriors needed to play their best game to beat BE, and probably played the worse game they could. The defense kept them in it the 1st qtr, but you can't ask them to do it as often as they had too. You can't have TO's like SW did against a 11-0 team and win. Just won't happen.

If you are going to count Rockcastle as East ky. Then you have to throw in Southwestern and SW's Scott Blair of 1999.

Not Enough in my Opinion. I am a big believer in guys playing 2-3 sports. I wish i would have played basketball all 4 years instead of just my Fr, and SR years.
