Fort Frye Cadets

River wins 56 - 39

OVAC final Sat. at OU Eastern at 12:30 Fort Frye vs. Hannibal River.

These two teams split the home-away series with Fort Frye winning 63-36 at Beverly, and River winning 46-42 in overtime at River.
The Cadets play great defense and rotate eight players to keep fresh legs on the floor, and there is little dropoff in skill level when bench players enter the game.
I look for the Cadets to pull away in the second half.
Cadets start 4 Srs. and one Jr. Bench players are one Jr. and 4 Soph's.

FF JV's are all 9th, and 10th graders, with five Frosh. getting lots of playing time.
Not sure, but I think maybe the JV's are unbeaten.

Cadets should be very competitive again next year and down the road.

Great defensive job by FF to hold a 17-4 River team to 22 points. Seven points in the second half.

Cadets also out rebounded River, probably by a large margin.
Starters for FF got lots of rest as Coach Liedtke rotated players in and out the entire game.

Tonights game ball went to Senior Diedra Combs who scored her 1,000th point with her first bucket of the game. Congrats to Diedra on a great career at The Fort.

This is the Third Cadet to go over 1000 points this season, Shon, Talyor, and now Diedra.

Say that's a good class

[rickoshay]

I wonder.....how close is Morgan?

East Dist. Div III semi final at Steubenville tonight.
Cadets win 65-38 over W. Lafayette Ridgewood team that was very tall ( three at 6' 1"), but not much guard play.
Scoring for the Cadets went---15, 14, 14, 12, 8, and 2.
Ridgewood's 6'1" Senior had 19 to lead the way . Heard she's signed to play at the next level, and, she is going to be good at the college level.
Cadets shot 58% from the field, and 7-16 from behind the arc.
The four Cadet srs. left the game with about four minuts left.

[rickoshay]

Tough matchup vs West Muskingum tonight. Their two leading scorers went 6'3", and 6' both were Seniors and had a lot of second chance buckets in the paint.
Cadets made a 17 point comeback to take their first lead with less than one minute to go. Best comeback for the Cadets in many years.
Talk about "refuse to Lose" these girls have that attitude.
Scoring for Cadets went 14, 9, 9, 6, 6, and 3.

BTW, tonights win sends Cadets to face Adena-Ironton winner at Logan next Wed. evening

[rickoshay]

Well its Adena vs FF tomorrow evening at the new Logan high school. Did they move the name"Katie Smith" over from the middle school to the new HS Gym?
