Chillicothe 56
Washington CH 26 a final

… Coach Huffer’s Cavs NEEDED to defend the Hat tonight – and DID ! … holding the Blue Lions of Coach Scott to but 26 points for the game – zero FGs in the 4th period of action ONLY 2 points in the quarter … the quarter breaks looked like this :

Qtr ……1 ….2……3……4

Cavs …..6 …20 …37 ….56
Lions…. 6….12 …24 ….26

… Chillicothe more than defended the home court vs Court House as the Cavs defense shutdown the Blue Lions … an anemic 1st quarter offensively by both teams … each had 4 turnovers in the opening period …Brandon Noel netted 2 fgs /Jayvon Maughmer 2 pts for the Cavs while 3 Blue Lions seniors opened the Blue Lion scoring Evan Upthegrove/Blaise Tayese/Omar Porter each 1 fg/2 points in the quarter … Chillicothe 6 Washington CH 6 end of 1 … in the context of tonight’s game the Cavs “blew open” the game with a 14 points quarter while holding WCH to another 6 points as lefty Chris Postage drained 2 triples from the left wing and sub Christian Benson played quality minutes for Coach Huffer off the bench with a nice drive across the lane for 2 pts (3 in the qtr) … Chillicothe 20 Washington CH 12 at the half … the Blue Lions got back into

Warren 59
Alexander 46 a final

… made the trip to the WarriorDome to see if the Alexander Spartans were ready to move into the Elite 8 … my 3rd time to have eyes on the Spartans … a W at Vinton County, a L at Athens and tonight an L vs Warren … the Warriors were very Warren like – disciplined, constant motion offensively, solid defensive game turning the Spartans over 17 times, handled the AHS defensive pressure as Alexander was only able to turn WHS over 6 times for the game … Both teams were effective offensively in the opening quarter as Alexander had all 5 starters dent the scorebook led by Dylan Mecum’s 5 points/JK Kearns a trey (3 pts) and single buckets by Caleb Terry/Kaleb Easley 2 apiece … Warren was paced by senior 2 man Noah NIchols with 9 points in the quarter … Warren 17 Alexander 16 after 1 … period had more defensive pressure by both teams as Warren had

Trimble 49
South Gallia 42 a final

… Earlier in the week I decided that I would make a trip to Glouster tonight to see Coach Caldwell’s 10-2 Trimble Tomcats taking on the 11-5 South Gallia Rebels … both D4 schools … I had hoped to have gotten to see the Tomcats at the Beasts of the Southeast the 2nd week of January BUT Mother Nature didn’t allow either myself or the Tomcats to make the trip to Chesapeake … I wasn’t disappointed – good basketball game ! both teams showed how they got to double digit “W’s” on the season ! South Gallia relied on perimeter scoring (8/18 three points/8 fgs in the paint) while Howie’s troops are undersized, not a particularly good perimeter scoring teams (0/8 from behind the arc… only 1 fg made outside the paint for the game !) …the Tomcats are a true “Blue Collar” team … I was driving back from Glouster digesting the game I watched – the Tomcats are a TEAM that Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs would do a show on ! – 32 minutes of motion offense, picks along the baseline, on the wings, at the elbows … bodies on bodies looking to get separation on cuts to the rim from EVERYWHERE on the court – my kind of offense ! the Tomcats got 12
