Rebels' win caps night for Fookes

http://nky.cincinnati.com/apps/pbcs.dll/...112100316/

Boone County dedicated its basketball court to longtime girls' coach Nell Fookes on Friday, so the last thing the Rebels wanted to do against Holy Cross was lose.

Sydney Moss ensured that Boone County, ranked No. 1 in the Enquirer Northern Kentucky coaches' poll, would come out on top against the No. 10 Indians. The senior forward scored 20 points in the first 10 minutes on the way to a game-high 32, propelling the Rebels to a 55-37 victory.

Boone (3-1) raced to a 20-10 first quarter lead with Moss contributing 12 points. DeAsia Beal led Holy Cross (0-3) with 13.

"We knew the court was going to be dedicated tonight," said Moss, who has scored 70 points in the last two games. "We definitely wanted to win for coach."

Friday offered vintage Fookes in action on the sideline, where she is accompanied by husband Dean Fookes, an assistant. She yelled instructions to her players. She squealed at the officials. She jumped up and down. She stomped in frustration. She won, for the 607th time.

"I could not have done this without the players," Fookes said.

Fookes, Northern Kentucky's all-time winningest basketball coach - male or female, has been at Boone since 1985.

With family, friends, 27 former players and the man who hired her, former Boone County principal Bill Baker, in attendance, Fookes was given a bouquet of roses and introduced by assistant Boone principal Tim Schlotman.

Sydney Moss, had she not drawn her 2nd foul with 4:58 to go in the half, was headed for an epic night. Her jumper, which has been off so far, returned and she was scoring at will and from all angles. When she sat she had actually played a few seconds more than 9 minutes in the first half and had run up 20 points. In the second half, with a comfortable lead, Moss was content to not attack on offense and in fact played the point for a significant stretch when starter Jessica Jones tweeked an ankle. I think we'll see one of those epic nights from her before this season is over.
