They can compete or even beat Great Crossing especially if Boyd about did because this Ashland team is levels above boyd even without their 2 starters out. For anyone to say they are going to lose to Boyd or Hazard hasn’t watched basketball. Hazard didn’t impress me at all but I didn’t see that Evin Eversole play for them. I still didn’t seem impressed with them and I can’t see them being considered a top 25 team in the state. Like i’ve said Ashland AT WORST will start 2-1.
GC will beat APB by 15-20 points easily. APB has no inside presence and doesn’t rebound well. BC killed them in the post. Sperry is very out of shape or was playing sick. He stood bent over majority of the game. If BC was in the 16th. They’d be in the bottom just above 2-3 teams. That was not a good test for a scrimmage. Either was Paintsville. Hazard played Newport who is a very good and athletic team and lost by 8. That’s without Eversole. Who is their guy. The big Hazard has will give APB fits. BC played Adair who is Present #7 returning 7/8 seniors from last years Rupp team. BC tested themselves in both scrimmages with #1 and #7 ranked teams in the state.
APB was not impressive at all. Outside of Carter. They struggled offensively and definitely are not very deep. To make a run at state they are going to have to improve vastly. That’s with Neel who is currently ineligible.
Obviously you’re easier impressed with your team than anyone else outside of APB. Hazard is 10x better the BC and Sperry was either sick or just out of shape and has no help at all. The bigs got to the rim and shots easy bunnies. They just missed and would get their rebounds and put backs. That is how they stayed in the game vs APB. Outside of Carter. No one else made shots consistently vs a very poor defense yesterday. A lot of turnovers from the guards (which is all they have) no inside presence. If Moreno plays (if not injured with his hand) and the other big they have will dominate them in the paint. Hazard with Eversole and the other big will be problems. BC big and guards who play big will give APB problems. You obviously are wearing rose colored glasses. That’s if you do have all 6ft and under guards back. Like I said. 0-3 or best 1-2 if they shoot it well in Hazard.

Zander is taller than Eversole and will play good defense on him. They shoot it too good to be beat by a Hazard Team. Newport wasn’t a good shooting team and was missing their 2 best players that were on the bench sitting, so you can’t take the newport game into account too much. Hazards decent don’t get me wrong but I wasn’t that impressed at all and even with Eversole it don’t make them an amazing team or a good enough team to compete with Ashland. You can run a zone on them if you want and shade their better shooters but Ashlands up in your face defense will cause issues with Hazard. Hazard was sloppy with the ball at times. Come back to this post in April when Ashland is the 2025 State Champs.(12-01-2024, 01:23 PM)billymoore8123 Wrote:Hazards best player is a big who was not in attendance due to an illness.

I agree with those two returning that will help the defense that was lacking yesterday. That will put two guys on the bench that started yesterday. With the return of those two. Who goes to the bench? Lalonde? Smith? Hoskins? Clark?
