It's called not being mentally prepared for a game, when you beat a team twice in the season, it's very hard to get yourself mentally ready for a game like this

Seminoles should beat Shenandoah, then the winner of Bridgeport/Conotton Valley.
Should see winner of Rosecrans/Steub CC in District semi, then Hiland in final.
Any other scenario I cannot see, but hey, that's tournament basketball and anything can happen.

really wouldn't blow off Rosecrans.. they can play and have a great veteran head coach

And a stud guard in Labishak who can light it up, averaging around 27 PPG.

You're right about Rosecrans. Forgot about their talent. Is coach Rock still in charge of the Bishops?

Yes I believe so

Surprised Shenandoah kept it reasonably close against MC.

MC shot terrible from the field. I don't know the stats but it was easy to see they were just off.

Well we beat Bridgeport earlier in the year. Should be able to repeat but they need to shoot better. Good luck Noles.

MC is better, but if comes down to the last 2 minutes, look out

That was better. 67-16. Tucker Howell got 2 quick fouls in the 1st period and didn’t play the rest of the half. He maybe played a total of 1 period. Good job to the rest of the team for raising their game

Looks like they play Rosecrans at Cambridge

Monroe wins by 15 over Rosecrans


Are you really insinuating that Mason can’t coach if the game is close with 2 mins left? It was 1 game and they beat Ferry 2 nights later bad. Guy is 23-1 in his first year as a head coach. Dude puts in so much time studying the game. Best thing that could have happened was Monroe losing that Ferry game and gaining experience. Monroe returns almost all the production for next season. This program is on the rise.

Wow talk about putting your own spin on something...

Imagine someone thinking a coach who has coached 40 years and won 450 games may have an edge over a 1st year head coach...

Come on man. Try to have perspective before you start banging on the keyboard.

The thing with ‘Crans is if they aren’t 100% healthy, then they are going to be on the ropes from opening tip. The Labishak kid is a strap. They’ve had some injuries in their backcourt, IIRC, so if they’re still banged up then that’s just going to narrow the upset bid.

Rock is legend. Monroe still has a huge talent advantage.

Agreed with both statements. My statement was discussing in the last two minutes, which coach would you rather have? Lang may win a game like that, but you'd probably bet on Rock based on experience and wins if you had to bet.

Just stated my opinion pal. Sorry it didn’t meet your thought process or opinion.

Agree MC by more than 12. The bishops haven’t beaten a good team this year and got worked pretty good by Martins Ferry. Mason does a good job of limiting the teams top scorers. There is no one to stop Howell on this team. They will try and slow down the tempo but will get abused inside. MC is in a different caliber than the MSL teams. If they trap or double Labishak no one else really can match up with the Seminole defenders. I’d take Mason over Rock. Not hating but you don’t have to be old to know how to coach.

Good luck Noles. Safe travels to Cambridge for all. I can't make this game does anybody know if it is going to be streamed anywhere? Or at least a radio broadcast?
