(2021) SG Colson Montgomery

Recommended Posts

Not picking up that there's any real IU interest but I'll try to keep you updated anyway since he does have his own thread.

Castle 54, Southridge 44: The Raiders (0-1) dropped their first game of the year on Saturday at the University of Southern Indiana. However, junior Colson Montgomery needed 12 points — and got 16 — to eclipse the 1,000 point total in his career. His 16 points were a team-high.

The Southridge boys basketball team didn’t pick up the win Friday night, but you can’t say they didn’t give it all they had. Down as much as 19 at one point, the Raiders (1-2) fought back to make it a three-point game in the final seconds, but couldn’t get the final shots as they fell in their home opener at Huntingburg Memorial Gymnasium to the Washington Hatchets, 48-42.

Colson Montgomery had 21 points.

Colson Montgomery broke his own record Friday night.

The Southridge junior scored 41 points to set a new boys basketball school record, besting his 39-point performance from Jan. 22, 2018 when he was a freshman against Perry Central. He had 22 points at halftime. He made six 3-pointers and was 15-of-16 at the free throw line. His performance led the way to the Raiders (2-4) snapping a three-game losing streak, 88-59, at Huntingburg Memorial Gymnasium.

“I was trying to play aggressive, but I was trying to get to my teammates open, too, because all eyes are on me,” Montgomery said.  Raiders coach Mark Rohrer said the team challenged Montgomery, and that he challenged himself. Rohrer backed up with Montgomery said about playing aggressively and taking what the defense gave him.  “I thought it was his mindset all week in practice of just being ultra-focused, unbelievable leadership and then the points just kind of came,” Rohrer said.

Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.  Did IU/Butler/NotreDame just post in something other than that Brown kid's thread?  :farting_smiley:

Lol ! I know I know ....I suppose I deserve that.  Before you get too proud of me though....I saw the Montgomery kid and learned of his existence because I made the 3 hour drive to north Daviess to watch Blackford.  But I was impressed enough to start researching the kid.

Not sure if hopf is eligible yet for barr Reeve but are you planning to catch the end of that tournament ? Hopf brown and Montgomery make it a bargain  ticket ...thanks for posting the game summaries as they are hard to come by as far north as I am.  I’ll be interested in following his last two years.

Hopf will not play this season unless a judge rules otherwise.  IHSAA has ruled and I believe the Hopfs have exhausted their  IHSAA avenues of appeal.  See page 5 of Hopf's thread for the details of his situation.

PS:  See how easy it is to post in other threads besides that Luke Whatshisname's thread?

I have a new found respect for southern basketball ...so fundamentally sound and oriented.  Effort is expected.  I loved it.  Linton must be for real if they stayed that close to Barr Reeve

For as small as Linton is, they're good in every sport.
