Calm down Joe. It is tourney time. One and out. Who is HOT? Do you go by the last 2,4,6... games or just district winners? For me it is Gallatin all the way but they are fighting an uphill battle that I hope they are ready for. Coach Jones will have them as ready as possible, this I am sure of and they are tourney tested. Go Cats!!!

The topic said it all "At HOLMES". I think it is a three dog race in the 9th and I'll take the home dog.

Just going by the numbers! Not a team ranked below them in their bracket. I agree, it probably doesn't matter to them and they would play anyone.

Daugherty is a fine player. Hard nosed and just a pleasure to watch. Cody Perkins and Trent Maddox for Gallatin are also fine players and a pleasure to watch. The biggest difference is that Cody and Trent play 3 or 4 different positions, in Cody's case all five, in the same game.

The last Litkenhous Ratings that I could find had: SK at 78.8 Shelby at 78.4 Oldham at 73.9 S. O. at 71.0 Gallatin at 69.9 Anderson at 69.7 Henry at 61.1 W. V. at 58.3 Who got the best draw--- Oldham County Who got the worst draw-- Gallatin County

Thanks Strike 3. It was a hard fought physical game. I will not complain about the officiating because it was just what I've come to expect. (Maybe a new tread on that later). Henry fought the battle worthy of a victor but Gallatin once again got the win. Gallatin is not a one man team, or a two man team. Henry put all their efforts into stopping Perkins and Edmondson. After 3 Quarters of trying to get these two into the mix it became time to let the rest of the team win the game and they did. Note to Coach Jones: Let Cody and Nate draw the best two defenders the other team has to offer. I'm sure the rest of the team would gladly win it for you,

Sad to say but I must agree that Oldham, although they don't impress, they win. One regional loss at the #1 seed (IMO) SK. The only possible problem that I think they have on their side of the bracket is Henry at home.

Nice draw for Carroll and time to regroup.

Thanks Buttels

Time for GC to put on their armor and man up. Although Shelby lost their district they are probably the 2 seed and then there is the #1 seed playing the nightcap. "GO CATS"

Holmes has a-lot to prove next week and being on their home floor I believe that they will do it. All the problems suffered throughout the season will be put to rest.

Who will Coach Jones force into making this draw?

Welcome to the site. I'm sure Buttels will have the draw posted asap.

Holmes on their home court. Sorry CC. Holmes to Rupp.

SK must have looked good, sure thought WV was going to make a tougher stand.

There is nothing more pleasing to me than a good student section for girls or boys, but the student section can be great without being obnoxious and rude. I've seen these great student sections. However some schools allow their kids to be as they call it kids, but as I call it ( rude and obnoxious ). At the game that I was at tonight the student section would chant bull.... on any call they didn't like. Thankfully that would not be tolerated at our school, and taunting individual players as they did is in very poor taste.

Congrats to BB. In the end they did what they do best, WIN.

Move to the 8th Region. That way you get use to that kind of officiating.

Not a good win but a great win for the Cats. Henry is the toughest match-up they have had this year, and Henry was about 9-1 on their floor since Christmas. Congrats Cats. Good luck to both teams in the region. Henry has a classic team.

Congrats, WV. I like your post T and S. Couldn't have said it better myself.

I must agree that Grant is struggling, and that might be an understatement. Walton is playing their best ball right now, even the two loses (against pretty good teams) in the last 6 games could have very well went the other way. Walton by 12.

Davis turned the game completely around with his hard nose defense and rebounding in the second half. Thanks for bringing him up Mack.

Welcome to the fun. It only gets better.

Nate played big tonight, and the rest of the team followed in line. Great effort by all. Most teams DO NOT come back on Owen. Kept the turnovers down in the final minutes and hit free throws. Something that had been absent in other Owen - Gallatin match ups.

It was gut check time for Gallatin, and they left it on the floor. Hadn't played well of late and trailed by 12 in the 3rd. quarter. Best finish of a game that they have had for awhile. Congrats Gallatin for moving on and Congrats to Owen for a great season. Sure would have like to seen them both in the regionals.
