... the Pfloyd Tour made the 2 hr drive to the Reservation at Peebles High School to see the 8-0 home standing Peebles Indians entertain the 8-0 Eastern Brown Warriors of Coach Rob Beucler ... Scouting reports : Peebles - uptempo, pushes the ball - scores in transition, "see three - shoot three" and more times than not "makes the three" , deep bench, outstanding freshman post player , great mix of youngsters with senior leadership ... Eastern Brown - most comfortable in the half court game, solid defensive team, 3 bigs to make the halfcourt game work with quality high percentage shots on the blocks, PG - off guard that uses his body to get in the paint and scores the ball, wing big who shoots the 3 ball & midrange jumper, PG that can knockdown the open look three ... 8-0 vs 8-0 ... small school division vs big school division ... the only time the 2 schools will face off this season ... full stands during the JV game that Eastern Brown won 65-61 ... not sure how this game could miss being a good game ... it did however ........ IT.WAS.A.GREAT.GAME!!! a classic!!! both teams played 9 deep - EB with 7 adding points to the scoresheet while Peebles had 8 of 9 contribute to the final tally ... we had defense by both teams, offense by both teams with EB putting up a 24 point quarter and Peebles a 29 point quarter ... by 3:15 in the 4th the Warriors had "put this game away" taking a 13 point lead 68-55 ... the Eastern Brown fans I was in the middle of in the Cheap Seats asked if it was STILL worth driving 2 hrs to see this one ... I said, I think Peebles has "a run" in them still ... Coach Arey went to a diamond press ... forced 7 EB turnovers ... at 16.8 on the clock on a drive score "& 1" by Paxton Ryan the Indians had completed a 15-0 , helter skelter, run to take a 70-68 lead ... Eastern Brown with the ball , Kayne Dotson brought the ball up court ... dish to Sam Ramer who dribbled left behind the arc, knocking down a smooth 3 point shot to give EB back the lead 71-70 ... the clock showed 8.0/ the officials gave Peebles 8 + 1.9 ... 9.9 seconds - a lifetime in basketball time - to counter both the score by Ramer and the emotions of taking the lead at 70-68 and then losing the lead on the 3 ball by Ramer 70-71 ... the Indians were able to get the ball into the paint off the dribble but Chase Pinkerton got a hand up, got enough of the ball to have it fall short off the front of the rim ... game to the Eastern Brown Warriors on the road, EB goes to 9-0 ... Eastern Brown 71 Peebles 70 a final ...

... such a great game by 2 excellent teams ... the opening quarter was what I expected on paper - Eastern was able to get inside, use it's size with 6-6 Matthew Dick getting a pair of buckets on the blocks - a putback for 2 pts & a feed from out to in & finish in front of the rim 2pts ... tough EB defense forced 3 Peebles turnovers in the period with Sam Ramer taking it coast to coast twice 4 pts ... Carter Cluxton, on the scouting reports he will step out and look to hit the three, true to form the 6-4 jr drained a trey 3pts ... Peebles did it's best impersonation of EB by getting points in the paint in the half court game as 6-0 sr Grady Knechtly scored on an offensive board & stickback 2pts and low in lane for 2 more pts ... 6-1 jr Connor Gross drove into the paint, challenging the 6-6,6-4 interior of EB scoring at the rim 2pts ... sr. Paxton Ryan/jr. Josh McClary each followed Gross getting into the paint for buckets ... everything went by the scouting reports other than Peebles being unable to hit from behind the three point line as the Indians were 0 for 5 from three in the first ... Eastern Brown 14 Peebles 10 after 1 ... the 2nd period saw the Warriors do what was expected - controlled the boards - Sam Ramer getting a pair of putbacks of offensive misses for 4pts ... 6-3 jr Chase Pinkerton did what he does best - backed his defender down into the paint, then worked his way up & finished around the rim 4pts for the jr. in the qtr ... Carter Cluxton followed the script as the 6-4 jr. drained a 12 foot midrange jumper on the baseline before hitting an open 3 and going 2/2 from the FT line 7 pts in the qtr/10 for the half with 2 treys in his pocket ... Peebles and 3 point scoring are synonymous ... teams that shoot the 3 usually don't STOP shooting the three ... in the 2nd , 6-5 fr. Keegan Puckett stepped outside the arc to take the lid off the basket from 3 point land for PHS 3pts ... Paxton Ryan followed with 2 treys on his own ball 6pts ... 5-10 so. Bo Johnson came off the bench to keep the barrage going hitting a pair of 3 pointers 6pts to give Peebles 5 triples in the quarter on 9 attempts ... throw in more bench support in 6-0 fr Braylen Stephens getting a drive & finish 2pts & a lefthanded floater in the paint 2pts ... jr Josh McClary added 3pts on a drive to the rim & 1/2 from the line ... Peebles erased the first deficit of the game to take a 3 point advantage into halftime ... Peebles 32 Eastern Brown 29 at intermission ... coming out of the locker rooms, at some point in the 10 minute break Coach Beucler's troops decided to do it's best impersonation of the Indians of Peebles ... in the 3rd 8 minute quarter EB "out Peebled" Peebles ... the Warriors turned the Indians over 3 times taking all 3 to the rim for easy transition buckets 6pts/ Pinkerton & Cluxton each drained a trey 6pts/ EB used quickness to get into the paint for 5 fgs in the lane/at the rim 10 pts with Dotson/Pinkerton/Braxton Vance/Matthew Dick in front of the rim doing the damage ... when the buzzer sounded Eastern had RUN OUT to a 24 pt quarter & a 12 point lead ... Peebles again found it difficult to get good looks from behind the arc with Ryan getting the only trey of the period for PHS (1/6 in the period) ... only 4 fgs in the qtr by Peebles with Gross/McClary & Ryan getting to the rim for points off the dribble ... the EB team put it all together in the 3rd putting up 24 pts holding the high scoring Indians to under double digits (9pts) ... Eastern Brown 53 Peebles 41 after three ... in the first 4:45 of the final 8 minutes the teams matched buckets - Eastern Brown got 15 pts in the opening 4:45 to increase their lead from 12 to 13 pts ... Ramer scored on a drive & finish 2pts, a strip steal & score for 2 more pts ... Jacye Jennings off the EB bench drained a corner triple 3pts ... the 6-6 Matthew Dick scored on the block 2pts and turned around to get a bucket in transition following a PHS miscue 2pts ... Carter Cluxton scored 2pts off an offensive board and Ramer forced a Peebles timeout after taking 1 of 4 Indians' turnovers to the rim for 2 pts at 3:15 on the clock ... the Indians kept pace with EB as Ryan drained his 4th trey of the game 3pts/Grady Knechtly got the rim with his first points since the opening qtr 2pts/Puckett added 1/2 from the FT line/Connor Gross a triple 3pts & Ryan a drive & score 2pts ... 14 pts thru 4:45 for PHS, the Indians still losing ground ... a few fans the home side started to leave during the Peebles timeout with 3:15 Eastern Brown in control leading 68-55 ... the final 3:15 turned this one from being a good game between two 8-0 rivals to being a classic game between teams that don't know how to spell "quit" - not in their vocabulary ... Peebles put on a diamond fullcourt press ... turned the game into a "helter skelter" game by turning up the pressure, making EB make quick decisions by players who don't usually have to make decisions with the ball ... EB turned the ball over 7 times in the 4th period ... Peebles scored 3 tranistion buckets/ converted on 4 buckets in the paint "and ones"/ went 9 for 10 from the FT line ... held Eastern Brown scoreless for 3:10 seconds and change ... the emotions on the court , in the stands in that last 3:15 IS what boys high school basketball Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line is all about ... the crowd, the players emotions with each point Peebles scored , each turnover taken, each FT made and the Paxton Ryan drive for a 7 ft floater across the lane for 2pts to give Peebles the improbable lead by one 69-68 with 16.8 to play ... Coach Beucler with the timeout to freeze the shooter - Ryan converted the "and one" 70-68 ... the 180 degree swing of emotions by the home crowd & the visitors side when EB's Ramer drained the 3 pointer with 9.9 on the clock... 71-70 Eastern Brown - high school basketball ... nothing like it ... Eastern Brown 71 Peebles 70 a final ...

Well done Pfloyd! In my opinion this was an instant classic! Peebles is going to do some damage in dVI this year! I think both teams got their first MAJOR test of the year. Two huge moments in the last 10 seconds. First one for me was when I saw Ramer pull up to shoot the three. I thought for sure they would go inside to Dick for the potential foul. I was stunned and even shouted ""NO!" At the tv. my jaw dropped as the shot drained. The second moment was when Peebles took the final shot and the shot was tipped and fell short. It was so fast I thought Peebles might have a legit beef on the no call. I went back and did a rewind a bunch of times. I felt like I was Kevin Costner in "JFK" ...( down and to the left...down and to the left). I did freeze frame by frame screen shots. The contact was to the ball and clean. Truly a great game, and i felt exhausted watching it!

Well done Pfloyd Thanks for your always stellar napkin stats. I'm only sorry that I was not there for a chat. I may have jinxed my boys by not being there. haha! I will catch you down the line.I will add one thing to the discussion: Conner Gross getting into foul trouble had a big effect to Peebles Second half. He's the one that sees the floor so well and dishes out the assists for the Indians. He amazes me sometime how he sees the floor so quickly.

[danicalifornia]

Very fun game to get to call from floor level.

Two really good teams with outstanding coaching staffs and each community has some outstanding people that I’ve been able to meet on my trips. Easy to root for both schools.

Both teams needed a game like last night and I’m sure the staffs are going to make each group even better over the next couple of days in practice and in the film room.
