I realize we are a week out, but I heard a rumor from a friend that this game has sold out already before any tickets were available to the public. While it wouldn't surprise me with the season ticket holders, could anyone confirm or deny this?

It is sold out.

Heard Elida offered use of the Fieldhouse, but LCC declined.

I didn't hear that one but I did hear fans are mentioning it.

It's been reported on Facebook by someone from LSH that both school started ticket sales on the same dates. Game was Sold out Wed Night.

At the Lion dome in Detroit, or Indy.

LCC would have to make enough to make this game move from their own gym. I'm sure Elida is wanting a very large percent to have it played there.
They cannot even pass a levy out in Elida so why not try to get some money from other schools in the area?

Well now that both teams are undefeated coming into Tuesday's tilt, let's talk who wins this.....

Nope.... wanted concessions and ability to charge $1 for parking.

LCC has their own gym and has every right to use.

Agree with schrades. Why should LCC give up home court.

I played a lot of basketball in HS and in college. Crowd never affected me, but that's me.
Maybe it helps/hurts some guys more than others.
I don't blame LCC for wanting it in their building by any means, I just think it's unfortunate it wasn't at a larger venue so more could attend.
I think it's great there is going to be a live broadcast...that's awesome.

Pretty exciting to see the hoopla around this game. Don't see it happen very often. I've always felt those closest to the programs should get first crack at tickets. Many of the interest in this game centers around scouts, avid basketball fans from other communites and hangars on. At the end of the day, it's a high school basketball game. Let the true LCC/ Lima Sr fans enjoy it in their home gyms.

The quality of tonight's live broadcast was horrible. It is great that they are trying live broadcasts, but they need to get the bugs worked out. Tonight was unacceptable...

[Outspoken]

That was a helluva high school basketball game tonight......feel privileged to be there to experience it in person!! There is no way LCC should lose their #1 ranking with this loss.....if they do, it's a joke! Props to Lima Senior on a clutch road win without a starter......they continue to take everyone's best punch.

if Wilson plays, this game is not nearly as close...Simpson was carrying the team the entire first half...absolutely no perimeter threat all half

big ups to Q for standing his ground to the suspended player...he could've caved and put his best team on the floor but didn't. that's a coach who understands his responsibility to the young men he leads

[tunnelvision]

Is Q really as big of a jackhole as he portrayed in the post game interview last night?

[Spartan87]

tunnel:

"jackhole".Curious in why you think that? Quincey can come off as cocky sometimes, but if you knew him he's not like that at all. Confident, assertive and runs his ship with an iron fist is what he is. Not only teaches his players basketball but life skills. The man has forgotten more basketball than most people will ever know. Good dude, great coach.
