District Tournament

The basketball season starts over this week. The district tournament starts tonight, at Lincoln County High School, with boys basketball action. The Danville Admirals will play Kentucky School for the Deaf in the "play-in" game for the oppurtunity to move on in the 45th district tournament. The winner of this game will play the number one seed, the Lincoln County Patriots. Here is how the boys tournment lays out.

Monday: Danville vs. KSD
Wednesday: Lincoln Co. vs. winner of play-in game
Garrard Co. vs. Boyle Co.
Friday @ 7:30: Boys district championship.

The girls tournament action will get underway Tuesday night. The LadyPats too have the top seed. They will be hosting Garrard County Tuesday night in the opening round. Here is the girls schedule.

Tuesday: Lincoln Co. vs. Garrard Co.
Danville vs. Boyle Co.
Thursday: Girls championship

If you notice, the girls and boys both have their own night to cut down the nets this year.

Everyone needs to get out to the games this week and support the teams. They are having two of the finest seasons in the history of the school. The boys enter the district tournament with a 22-5 record. And are one of the favorites to win the region. http://www.kentucky.com/289/story/327273.html (look at #15)

Even the Advocate Messenger cannot deny the Pats, http://www.amnews.com/public_html/?module=displaystory&story_id=38638&format=html picking them as their favorite too.

The girls enter the district tournament with a record of 21-6, and have a great shot a sweet 16 run. They have the advantage of playing the rest of the season (district and region) on their home court. Hopefully we will be seeing them play a lot more games at home this season.

I hope everyone does come out to the games this week. I know the boys will have great support, but please don't forget our girls, they are a great team, great coaches, great players. They played Casey Co right down to the wire, a couple of breaks and we win the game. They have a great chance to go all the way to state & I'm sure they next few years we will be right back in the hunt again. See everyone at the games.

I feel like the girls are going to be serious contenders for the next couple years (at least). The crowd at the Casey game (for the girls game) was electric the other night.

I guess in the upcoming election we need to not be able to be anonymous who we vote for either.

The girls prevailed 57-39. Sluggish game, but a win and a trip to the district championship game. Not to mention a trip to the region tournament.

BS said...

Great news about McCreary Central, even though i wanted to see LC get them back.

Everyone get out to the game tonight and support the LadyPats. They play the Danville Admirals tonight for the 45th District Championship.
LC has played the Ad's twice this year, both of those matchups were good games.
This is the first time the girls have had their own night to cut down the nets, so get out to the game and watch them do it tonight.
