Highlands had an opening. Bell said "no thanks". Highlands doesn't duck anyone including the Top Teams in Cincy. It's relevant to last nights game because Bell isn't used to playing good teams. That soft schedule costs Bell in the playoffs every year. I would have like to have seen Bell win last night. However, Boyle is more prepared this time of the year since they play a better schedule.

This is a relevant point for any team who has a goal of winning Titles; not just accumlating winnning records. Knox had 2 teams all year who were any challenge - Bell and JC. We had several games were our starters hopped and skipped their way to a big lead and wore sweatshirts the second half. Clearly shows our dominance over those teams but did little to prep us for the 2nd Bell match. And frankly, we did not help Bell get ready for Boyle by showing up and playing so poorly in the Regional Final.

Nobody puts 45's on the bar and does 3 sets of 10 with 135 all year and expects to get 300 on max day...

Boyle to the man was not better than Bell. But as team they were more prepared to deal with this game - thus, the result.
