Class of '66 Old Fart

CORRECTION NHS now says tipoff at 7:30 ET

Last night St. Mary's (5-5) was beaten by Ottawa Glandorf (8-0) 43-32. St. Mary's led 24-20 at the half but could only score 8 more points. It is not a good team and only averages 49 ppg. Very turnover prone due to sloppy passes that often lead to uncontested layups for its opponent. In addition, outside shooting is poor. Parks finished with 9 pts. on 3-6 FG; 3-6 FT; 5 reb; 5 asst; 0 stl; 1 blk; 3 TO. Parks is usually double teamed and has often tried to force his way through defenders. In tonight's game, he did a very good job of passing out of the double team to an open teammate who just couldn't make the open shot.

No apology necessary. Just didn't want you to miss posting in prediction league if that was your intent.

By chance did you intend for this to be in the prediction league thread vs the actual game thread? Just doublechecking.

The Goofers (10-2) (1-2) visit SSAH on Sunday. They've beaten Michigan in Ann Arbor and lost to both Michigan State and Illinois on their home court. Another solid defensive effort from our Hoosiers and we should get the 'W'. Radio Live Stats

Last night Peoria Notre Dame moved to 11-2 on the season with a 64-42 win over Urbana. I had Koch with 16 pts. on 6-10 FG; 4-5 on 3s; 0 FT; 3 reb; 3 asst; 3 stl; 0 blk; 1 TO. To my untrained eye he has a nice shooting stroke and he throws very crisp passes. When he receives a pass, he either makes a move or immediately passes off to a teammate. He's not one to catch it and just hold it or take the single dribble and then have to pass it off. In my neck of the woods we have families with the KOCH surname who pronounce it 'COKE'. Catching a rare PND game that was on YouTube, the PND announcers pronounced it 'KOTCH'.

Chance to watch Gabe Cupps and our latest '25 offer Bryson Tiller in Dayton, OH on Jan. 14-17, along with a number of other high level talent players. https://www.flyintothehoop.com/

Richmond on a historic season starting off 13-0 with a win last night over Union Pines (12-2) 71-65. McNeil had a game high 23 pts. including 9-11 FT. The following is an extract from The Richmond Observer post-game story. ...McNeil hit a jumper coming out of the (1stQ) mask break, which was followed by a triple from Chavis to cap his 7-point first quarter. With under a minute to play, McNeil laid a shot off the glass to give the Raiders an 11-10 lead. Off the inbound to start the second, McNeil splashed home a three-ball, but again the Vikings surged ahead to take a 19-14 lead. That run ended when McNeil drained a triple from the top of the arc, which ignited an 8-0 spurt by the Raiders. McNeil added a drive in that run and Drake finished an old-fashioned three-point play to give Richmond a 22-19 lead.

Pretty good student as well as a pretty good student. @CalebWilson2025 Blessed to have received an 4.0 GPA on my last semesters grades. So happy to have started my academic high school career the right way!

GAME OFF! @MSJ_Basketball Sorry for the inconvenience GAME HAS BEEN CANCELLED TONIGHT ! Will keep you posted for rescheduling

Crosstown rivalry game tonight Bloom. North vs. Bloom. South. Scheduled tipoff 7:30. Game will be streamed at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDMYF7tVZcy7qRt3Y7QE_tQ

MaxPreps reports them as 9-3 but they're actually 10-3 and about to go to 11-3 as they're leading Wasatch Academy by 20 with the 4th quarter just getting underway. In the Wasatch game, Jalen just 2 pts. but he has 4 reb; 8 asst and 1 TO in 22 min. My bad, Bishop Walsh is today's opponent, not Wasatch.

GAME ON!

Mount St. Joseph has canceled school today due to inclement weather but no decision has yet been made about tonight's ball game.

Raby: Trayce Jackson-Davis is the first Power 5 player with 25 points, 10 rebounds and 5 blocked shots in a game this season. And he did it vs. the No. 13 team in the country.

Dammit Woody Wear A Suit 70 Skinny Minny 59

He fit right in with the blue hair crowd! lol

I didn't see this happen but this was a tweet: Coach Woodson crashes the post game conference and says to Galloway, "you come back and you just get all of this TV time?" Love it.

Somebody make sure Woody gets the word -- no casual attire game nights; wear a damn suit.
