I thought Jacob Bryant's inside play was the difference in this game. Pikeville had no answer for him. He really sealed well on the block, resulting in several baskets. Valley shot 14 of 15 from the free throw line. Jacob had 20 points, Ashley had 15 (in limited playing time off the bench), Logan and Elisha had 8 apiece, and Taylor Newsome came up big with 10 boards and 5 assists. I thought Harmon, Clevinger, and Sword played well for Pikeville.

Pikeville definitely won't play Valley or Paintsville in the first round of the tournament, so that is a plus.
