Congrats Big E.
Congrats To Both Teams, Eastern on the Win and To Clark County On A Heck Of A Season!

I Believe The State Title Is going To Eastern Tomorrow Night
Eastern certainly looks like the team to beat from what I've saw. I think they had 5 straight dunks on GRC.
Wow, I expected an Easter win, but not by 15
A showdown between No. 1 Eastern and No. 2 Clark County turned out to be an easy 65-50 victory for Eastern. The Eagles jumped to a big early lead and never let up as they advanced to Saturday morning’s semifinals.

Eastern led 61-42 (their last four baskets coming on dunks) before Coach Jason Couch emptied his bench. Clark County promptly hit back-to-back three-pointers, and Couch sent his starters back into the game.

It does not look like this game was ever close
Nope never was. It was 19-4 at one point.
Dang, I never would have expected a game like this. I think that Eastern will have a good game from Christian Co but man they sound really good today.

I didn't either. Hard to be in a game when you only shoot 14% from the field and 0% from 3 in the first half...bright spot we were only down 13 at the half.

Eastern is that good....they should win it all. They are ranked 19th nationally.

I am telling you, after watching Christian Co the other day, they have the athletes and range to stick with Eastern. I think that they are set for a big upset but they will have to continue their amazing three point shooting. This is going to be a great one!
Eastern's cruising right now!!
