Its hard to beat people multiple times in basketball. If Betsy Layne quits letting Pikeville turn them over they would have been in the last two games. Panthers continue to struggle shooting the ball consistently, but the defense is always there. Its interesting the Panthers really didnt press anyone anyone the whole tournament. They broke out the 3/4 court in the final but thats it. The bobcats can play in the half court set they just gotta get it up the floor better. No easy task.

I know the Panthers haven’t shot the 3 ball consistently but I wouldn’t say they struggle shooting since they are either 1 or 2 in the state in team field goal percentage.  Looking at their stats on KHSAA. All 5 starters are over 50% with Hall being the exception and he is at 49.2% (one make away from being 50%).  As for BL goes when they play in the half court they are very good. Yes their Achilles heal is turnovers and a lot of teams see that now.  Curious to see how other teams guard them going forward and how they handle that.
