Observations from the game (in no particular order):
The Ison kid (the center) has improved drastically from earlier this year. He allows Knipp to play his perimeter game, and keep Elliott County on the boards. He may be the second best big man in the region, behind Barnhill.
I don't know how many shots Knipp took tonight, but in all honesty, he didn't seem to force shots that weren't there. He was hitting threes, pull up jumpers, and finishing at the rim when the opportunity was there. Very talented player.
Ashland couldn't throw it in the ocean tonight. Knipp and Ison had an effect on some of their shots, but they missed wide open shots from the block and from the three point line. Some of the players look like they are afraid to miss, or they might be taken out of the game. They need to shoot with confidence, and that is hard to come by when you are afraid to miss.
Knipp was in foul trouble (picked up his second foul with about 3 or 4 minutes gone in the game), and Ashland really never did exploit it. He finished with 4 fouls, and the EC coach did a pretty good job of taking him out from time to time, to help keep him from getting his fifth.
