Well, Hickman Co. is very tough in their gym with their fans basically standing on the floor. HC will shoot very well, but I do not know what they have in the post area. As long as Wright doesn't get frustrated with HCs very aggressive and physical defense Loretto should be okay, but I thought that Loretto would whoop East and boy was I wrong. But, I think I will take HC by 5, probably in OT, HC usually comes out cold, but as the game goes on they will find their touch.

I think that Loretto is way over due to just come out on fire. Their shooting has really struggled the last few games. I think that if they are shooting well they could contend with anybody. I think that if they stay in transition most of the game it really works to their advantage also. They are not a very deep team off the bench but they are in great shape. They can run the floor with seven players and run with teams subing five at a time. Like I said they just had a terrible night against East Hickman and on the other side, East played a heck of a game. I don't want to take anything away from them. They played very well. But I think that the Loss will Open Loretto's eyes and they will come out very motivated and ready to play at Hickman.

I'm putting the "Statement Game" tag on this one for Loretto. If they win it could give them the chance for at least a four seed later on.

 

With that said, still going HC by double digits. They slowed C. Holt(not Coach Holt's boy) down, don't see Clint Wright getting much going either. It depends on him and what he gets done.

Sure, Loretto lost bye five. The game come down to the last minute but if loretto would have hit free throws they would have won it. They missed 14 free throws. The leading scores for the mustangs were Colin Stout with 21, he had an awesome game, and Clint Wright with 20, including three trays. Zack McDonald had a big night adding 15 with four trays. I think that Loretto showed some hope against Hickman. But as I said It all came down to the free throws.

    • Who’s going to lead the pirates offense this year?
    • Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.
    • I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.
    • Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.
    • Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw
