["LET EM PLAY"]

I agree that Rowan does have the better athletes and if the refs let both teams play this favors Rowan. With that being said, I always want the teams to be able to "fight it out" on the court without the refs controlling the game "too" much. Call the legitimate fouls that affect play, but don't call the ticky-tacky stuff. Basketball is still a contact sport to a point.

With that being said, good luck to both Ashland and Rowan.

I have to agree with your assessment of the match up. Its a shame these two are in the same bracket, they appear to be the only teams capable of putting the ball in the hole. There have been some some really bad offensive performances so far from the rest of the teams. The winner of this one has to be the favorite for the rest of the way. Which group of officials are calling this game? One group seems to let it get a little rougher than the other group.
