Well earned by these men.  I know only 3 are allowed to be nominated from each team, but IMO Cade Jones was as great a glue guy as any player. I just felt like he deserved a mention

Another great test for the Patriots as they prepare for the tournament

Simon put on quite a show.  I was impressed with the fight in the Marksmen.  A very well earned outright PAC title for the Patriots

Big game with a lot on the line.  Just the kind I would think both teams are looking for heading into sectional play

nothing is ever simple when breaking down a sectional field.

I planned on doing this throughout the year but with the site crashing I never got a chance.

1. Barr-Reeve (17-2) Unsure how their season would go with a new coach but so far so good. They are the defending sectional champs and until someone beats them they will remain the favorite.  Friday is a big Blue Chip game vs a good South Knox team.

(the next 4 could go in about any order)

2. Loogootee (6-11) I know their record isn't very good but in my opinion they are the only sectional team that can beat BR (but could also lose to any of the other teams besides WC).  Lions are at Mitchell Friday which they should win but don't always play well there.

3. Vincennes Rivet (10-8) I've not seen Rivet play this year but they have beaten Shoals and Orleans already.  I think we'll know more after they play Shoals for the second time on Friday and also BR the following week.

4. Shoals (11-7) I know some are high on Shoals but I'm not sold and that's because they have only beaten one good team early in the year (Southridge) and have lost every other time they have played someone good.  They have a chance to move up with a win against Rivet on Friday.

5. Orleans (7-11) A good win over Loogootee last week and probably have the best coach in the sectional so can't count them out.  Orleans has a tough weekend against Paoli and Edgewood.

6. Washington Catholic (1-14) Same as last year, probably don't stand a chance of beating any of the other sectional teams.  WC will be looking for their second win and should be possible as they play Evansville Christian and Columbus Christian this weekend.

Taps and Smalltown was wondering if any of the other teams have improved enough to make a legit challenge to BR or do any have a high enough ceiling that can get the job done?

Jasper gave HH a new wrinkle defensively and it worked pretty well.  I thought Carson was again a great spark.  A very good win that I think a lot can be learned whne the break down the video.

Rebels all everything Jayce Kelley did not play.  Definitely a factor.  Patriot defense was on point in the first quarter.

Carson came up huge.  the back to back plays of hitting the 3 and then making a great steal and dish for the and one really raised the energy level

Coach Josh Wetzel's Heritage Hills JV team ran their record to 12-1 winning the Forest Park JV Tourney.  They defeated Tell City in the semifinal 43-27.  Cayden Kratzer had 12 points on 4 of 6 shooting from three point range, and Mark Doyle went for 11 points and 7 rebounds.  The Patriots beat Forest Park 60-40 in the championship game.  Kratzer again lead the way with 25 points(7-9 from three) and Logan Krzykowski was also in double figures with 16.

I was really worried about this game especially after I heard from 3 different people this morning that 2 of our 3 leading scorers were sick this past week but since the big 3 combined for 60 points they must have been just fine.

Heritage Hills finally got that statement road win that the program needed so badly. Anyway to the game.

 

Game was tied 16-16 after 1 quarter, At halftime it was Heritage Hills 33 Southridge 26, After 3 Heritage Hills 47 Southridge 40 and final Heritage Hills 64 Southridge 52.
