I’m unemployed because my workplace shut down on February 29th. My wife hasn’t worked for almost two years because of a hip replacement gone awry. Tomorrow morning her gall bladder comes out. When we get home we have already decided to stay in for as long as it takes. Very limited trips out of the house. Mail, bank if necessary. Maybe get a couple of cases of water. We don’t have to go out, so we won’t.

Finals on ESPN2 tomorrow night at 7:00. -
The Wildcats knocked 12 points off the lead in 1:02 after trailing 61-48 with 3:21 left. For awhile I thought another miracle comeback was in the cards. 8 years ago they trailed Simon Kenton by 17 entering the fourth quarter and still were behind by 12 with 2:30 to play. A Jordan Morris three at the buzzer gave Gallatin a 56-55 victory.

Looking back at the regular season matchup. Grant led 30-23 at the half and 45-38 after three quarters. The Wildcats trimmed the lead to 50-48 midway through the fourth, but Grant scored the next 8 to essentially put away the 68-56 win. Grant shot 58% from the field and 13 of 19 from the line. Gallatin was 24-67 for 36% and 3 of 8 on free throws. The Braves out rebounded the Wildcats 38-22. Fairly lopsided stats for a one score game with 4:00 to play.

Senior Gage Ashcraft added 14 points including a 3 point play and three pointer in the final 30 seconds of the half to push Gallatin’s from 21-20 to 27-20. Zach Johnson also hit double figures with 10. And kudos to Hayden Dickerson and Logan Riddle for their defensive efforts. Ethan Lankford scored just 2 points while suffering from foul trouble and Trevor Hardin,who also battled foul trouble, was held to 4 points through the first three quarters.

8th Region Technicals

Yes. I was sitting across the aisle from one student section. -
Freshman Chloe Brown scored from 10 feet out with 2 seconds left to give the Wildcats the improbable victory. Gallatin trailed 37-26 after three quarters, but scored 35 in the fourth and forced overtime when 8th grader Whitley Biddle scored on a put back with 8 seconds remaining. Biddle also forced a second overtime by hitting 2 foul shots with 3.3 seconds left. Gallatin played the second overtime without star guard Ellie Oldendick who fouled out with 19 seconds left in the first overtime after scoring 31 points, including her 1500th career point. 8th grader Jada Hughes was brilliant in defeat with 42 points for the Warriors. Gallatin advances to play Owen County in Thursday’s championship game.

BGP QOTD: What movie traumatized you as a kid?
Mack The Knife replied to Colonels_Wear_Blue's topic in BGP Break Room
“The House On Haunted Hill” (1963) Saw it when I was probably 7 or 8. Black and White, Vincent Price, a floating skeleton, a vat of acid, screaming females. It had it all. Also, “The Ghost And Mr. Chicken” Yes, it’s a comedy, but to a 10 year old every scene in the Simmons mansion was frightening as heck.
