I guess ppl can stop texting me telling me that both Perry Central's boys and girls were going to win the sweet 16.
Delusions of grandeur. Now reality sets in.

Orangenowblue didn't know you was smart enough to use those BIG words.

They cut the lead to 2 in the closing minutes of the fourth.
These girls can play with anyone in the state but they came up a little short tonight.
We're all proud of them, though.
Free throws and their first quarter killed them. 12-22 from the FT line near the end and only 3 points in the opening quarter. Luckily their defense and rebounding kept Manual from blowing it open.

BOWLING GREEN, KY. — Her team out of sync for much of the second half, LeAsia Wright saved the day — and the season — for the Manual High School girls’ basketball team.
The 5-foot-7 senior scored a team-high 18 points, including a key 3-pointer in the fourth quarter, as the Lady Crimsons beat Perry County Central 50-41 Wednesday in the first round of the Houchens Industries/KHSAA Sweet 16 in E.A. Diddle Arena.
Wright was just 3 of 12 from the field but hit all 11 of her free throws and helped the Lady Crimsons overcome a cold-shooting night (28.6 percent).
“I told the bench, ‘We’re not losing as long as LeAsia is on this team,’ ” Manual coach Stacy Pendleton said. “She played with so much heart, and I’m so proud of her. She’s a gamer, and she’s a stud. My goodness. She made so many big plays when we needed them.”
Manual (34-2), No. 1 in The Courier-Journal’s Litkenhous Ratings, ran its winning streak to 19 and advanced to Friday’s 2:30 p.m. EST quarterfinal against Montgomery County.
Purdue signee April Wilson had nine points, seven steals and four assists for Manual. Kayla Styles and Kara Wright each added seven points.
Kayla Rankin (18 points, 13 rebounds) and Kendall Noble (10 points, 11 rebounds) posted double-doubles for No. 4 Perry County Central (30-3), which lost to Manual for the second time this season. The Lady Commodores won the rebounding battle 43-28 but couldn’t overcome 23 turnovers.
“We didn’t play quite as well as we’re capable, and that’s really disappointing,” coach Randy Napier said. “It’s frustrating, because I love these kids so much.”
Perry County Central fell into a big hole early, missing 14 of its first 15 shots and committing 12 turnovers as Manual jumped to a 17-5 lead early in the second quarter.
Manual had six steals through the first 11 minutes, including three by Wilson.
“We had a lot of ball pressure,” Wilson said. “That’s Coach P’s main focus since the beginning of the year is ball pressure, ball pressure, ball pressure. When you do that, it creates turnovers.”http://saxo.highschoolsports.net/article...le&Avis=B2

Manual 50, Perry County Central 41: Leasia Wright scored 18 points and went a perfect 11-for-11 from the foul line in leading Manual, No.1 in the state in Dave Cantrall's Rating the State.
The Lady Crimsons (34-2) beat a Lady Commodores squad that, as one of six schools to win 30 games coming into the state tournament, was considered a major roadblock. Perry County Central was ranked seventh in the state.
Manual got in front of Perry County Central 24-12 while forcing the Lady Commodores (30-3) into 14 turnovers and 4-of-23 shooting from the field.
Perry County Central clawed back, thanks to double-double performances from Kayla Rankin (18 points, 13 rebounds) and Kendall Noble (10 points, 11 rebounds), but the Lady Commodores never came closer than two points in the second half.
