John Cahill and his Clyde team watching intently, as West Holmes could also be an opponent of Clyde at the state tournament, if both teams reach that stage.

Rachelle Morrison, a 5'7'' senior for West Holmes nails a 3-pointer, but again, Africentric responds with an easy bucket.

Morrison nails another 3-pointer for Holmes and that's going to lead to an intense timeout from Africentric coach Will McKinney.

After that went shot went down, I must go back to the 85-15 crowd for Holmes. Noise and amount of people are definitely different here. This has the feel of a state tournament game, despite the teams being in two different division.

Two missed free throws by Holmes but an offensive rebound is put back up and in for Synder and she's fouled! It's good and just like that, Holmes is in the lead.

I see Flounder is out and about checking up with some of the college coaches
in attendance.........always the sly one

[Joshua_Morgret]

Beautiful bounce pass down low to Hill and she puts it up and in and she's fouled! Free throw good and Africentric answers with their own 3-point play and the lead.

Man, this crowd is intense with every play occuring. The West Holmes side is nearly sold out minus a small section for college coaches and volunteers here at the wonderful Classic in the Country.

5'9'' sophomore Paiten Strother fouled for Holmes and she makes 1-of-2 free throws. Africentric fouled on the other end but 5'10'' junior Sierra Hartley misses both. Offensive rebound and Hartley is fouled again and she'll shoot two more free throws. This time she makes both and that will end the quarter, as a 3-pointer from halfcourt goes in and out. Great first quarter!!!

Columbus Africentric: 15
West Holmes: 12
END 1ST QUARTER

halftime.........means snacktime!
for Flounder that is.......that 30# wheel of swiss cheese is going to take a hurtin' today!

Flounder is standing guard over that like he was guarding Ft. Knox.....

Africentric steal and a bucket but Morrison nails her third 3-pointer of the game already. 5'3'' sophomore Dayuna Johnson responds for Africentric.

I just want one question answered:

"How does she know so much about girls basketball?"

The Africentric run continues!! They're on a 13-3 run here in the 2nd quarter.

the Lady Knights from West Holmes must get back into this game quickly.....

Flounder is back from the "Wheel of Fortu Cheese" and looks none the worse
(although I will say it looks like Mickey had a few of his friends helping him)

[Joshua_Morgret]

Four quick points for West Holmes to cut it to single digits, as we go under one minute remaining in the first half. Africentric bucket puts it up over 10 points again.

i thought i picked WH? 'cause i was wondering how i'd make a 'heart' and not a 'head' pick in this game.... although, i will continue to wish & hope for WH!

Africentric gets a driving lay-up to put a smackdown on the first half!!

Columbus Africentric: 32

After 2 games Slicer is leading the Weatherman's Contest here at the CITC going 2-0.......
Josh has also said he's perfect.....

W. Holmes is the pick for this one

That pick is the consensus pick in the CITC program by the supposed gurus
Slicer, you went against "conventional wisdom" and followed the RM's advice.......

Here I am.........Rock you like a Hurricane!
Scorpions

It's early morning
The Sun comes out
Last night was shaking
And pretty loud
My cat is purring
And scratches my skin
So what is wrong
With another sin

The b**ch is hungry
She needs to tell
So give her inches
And feed her well
More days to come
New places to go
I've got to leave
It's time for a show

Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
