Game over! Wow...never in doubt. The whole team came up big. Owsley was outmatched and could not handle either the offense or defense of Lee. Smith had a good 2nd half for OC but not good enough. Neeley had a defender all over him all night and was a non factor.
Here are the scores
Lee County- Brandenburg 17, Rich 15, Fetters 12, Taulbee 3, Johnson 6, D. Liesegang 4, J Liesegang 3 = 60
Owsley Co- Smith 21, Neeley 9, Congleton 6, Bowling 2, Wright 1, Wilson 1 = 39
Owsley just cant match up with the bobcats...not today, not earlier, and not tomorrow.

The Bobcats are now in the finals of the All A.
Lee's defense was a big factor, but Owsley didn't do themselves any favors either, by missing about 15 shots right under the basket. They rushed shots all night, even the putbacks. And they couldn't hit much from the foul line. To play close to Lee and have a remote chance of beating them, you have to make the bunny shots and hit about every free throw. Even if Owsley had done that, they would have still got beaten, but it would have been more like 6 or 7 points instead of 21.
Owsley wasn't patient enough in the offense and didn't set good screens. Then they would get out of their offense and start playing one on one. These are some things they're going to have to correct to even be in the ball park with teams like Lee and Estill.

I couldnt help but notice ur post....I just dont understand it....How you can diss a OC team that has owned Lee co the past 15 years.....Every team in the region has nothing but respect for the Owls.....This is the first time I can ever remember Lee being a factor in the 14th....The Bulldogs on the other hand has always been great so forgive me if Im not as excited as u!:wenumber1

Smith played real bad tonight. He forced too many shots and didnt even look to run an offense. This was not the same Smith kid i had seen the previous weeks.

I wasnt dogging OC. Sorry if it came across that way. I was just saying that this year OC has a lot of matchup problems. Look at some of my other posts, I respect this Owls team and root for them when they dont play Lee. I hope they do well. I hope they pull it together and make a run district time (assuming they play Estill :D)

I think Owsley's problem is they don't really have an inside scoring and defensive threat like they did last year with Tyson Gross. That allows defenses to come out and put more pressure on the perimeter game, and that's exactly what Lee did last night. And their help defense cut off most drives to the basket and turned them back, or caused a forced shot. Owsley was able to get the ball inside occasionally, but they are young in the post, mostly sophomores, and just couldn't seem to put it away when they had the chance. That means, then, that most of the scoring had to come from outside, and last night it didn't happen. Lee wouldn't let it.

Lee played great and the Owls could not mathc up or handle the defense. Smith forced WAY too many shots and Neeley couldn't connect last night. The 2 of them struggled for leadership on the court and the team suffered. Just what I saw anyway.

Smith wasnt the only player on Owsley FORCING SHOTS my friend! Smith came down in the 3rd quarter and made a three and cut it to an 8 or 9 point ball game and then came down on 'D' and drew an offensive foul on RICH. OWls fans and I both thought this would be the momemtum shifter, but someone other than Smith came down and forced a fade away three pointer. Good Win for Lee though! Good luck tomorrow against Buckhorn!!!

I agree with you, the Owls came out and played a tough game & made Owsley Fans proud, Thursday night against JBS..but they just didnt play like the team I know they can be. . . . . . I was kinda shocked though, beating a team 3 times in one season is impressing, Bobcats showed who wanted it more lastnight..Great Game Guys!

Who runs this team, the players or the coach? Sounds like to me that the coach needs to take control. If a player is forcing shots, then get control of them. Who is the guy that coaches Owsley anyway? The game I saw them early in the year, the coach just sat their the whole game and did not even call a timeout. No wonder there is a struggle over leadership. The coach should be in charge.

(imo)owsley might not of played that well in the game but if lee county didnt have tyler rich i dont think they would be that good he knocks the outher teams players down and gets by with it no wonder lee does so good when all the defense on the other team gets knocked on the floor.

For me this was a horrible game to watch. As much as I love the Owls, they came up short tonight. Anybody who watched the game would have to admit deep down that there was some horrid officiating.
That was one of the worst called games I've ever seen in my entire life.
Though that was not the sole reason Owsley lost.
Poor Shot Selection
Good Defense By Lee
Too Much Drving by Smith and Neeley
Just to name a few.
Neeley's game is from behind the 3 point arch. He strayed away from that way to much this game. Smith is an excellent slasher but when he drove the ball in I never saw any kick outs to the 3 point range.
The Owls have pulled up big in their past couple games. And to be honest, I think it has gotten to their heads. This is just a wake up call for the young Owls. They need to take a few lessons from the Lady Owls. They always come back with a big run near the end of the game. Maybe that would help the Owls some.
And with the June Buchanan game, the owls fans was wild. Same with the game against Lee. Owsley brough two fan busses and many drove to the game. However, from being there and experiencing it, the bad officiating and great defense from Lee kept the crowd out of it.
If the Owls learn from their mistakes, they could be a dangerous force to reckon with.

Give some examples of "bad officiating." The idiotic shot robert put up trying to get fouled and looked stupid doing it? I think that you have lost it. Lee just SPANKED the OWLZ like they have all year and again, you look for a reason why, because, SURELY LEE ISNT BETTER THAN OWSLEY!!!! Nooooo!!! Can't be.
Tek32
01-30-2006, 10:38 PM
No, I may be one of the most truthful you've ever seen. You can't deny that that game was called badly. The refs got on Owsley's case bad near the 2nd Quarter and into the 3rd. Then they eased up a bit. For a while, everytime Lee went down the floor a foul was called on Owsley.
And one call which got extremely upset, is when Trey Congleton went up for the rebound and a Lee County player (don't remember which but Im thinking Tyler Rich) went over his back and knocked him to the floor, in which the referee called out of bounds on Owsley...

Do you forget to look at the other facts in that post? I not only mentioned the bad officiating, no no no... I mentions Lee's great defense, and Owsley's poor shot selection.

Bad officiating or not the bobcats are in richmond, a place were OC fans are very familiar with and when there not there there like what the **** just happened. It's true i'm die hard OC but lee is just flat out better this year. I'm sure that there are ways to keep your team from getting beat by twenty and i have some ideas of how it could be done myself but i'm not getting paid the big bucks to keep them from getting beat. OC will be okay this year is done imo but if i were coach i'd start building toward next season. I have watched a lot of games in my life and I have seen bad officiated games and to me some coaches need to take up for their players this of which I have yet to see out of the OC staff. Lee played terrific "d" through out the tourney and with the exception of jackson city a game in which they only gave up 61 they held their other opponents to 39, 40 and 41 to win the All "A" pretty impressive if you ask me.

i still dont see why owsley lost the way they did. they played a great game against JBS and i figured they had the potential to play great. maybe it was just a bad night for them, they was going into lees territory, which means they were playing in their rival's gym. alot of pressure has to come from that.

As in replying to Tek32...I think that you are a very smart person. I believe that the officiating was terrible towards the means of Owsley County. They did bring 2 fan buses, however with the game not going their way, they weren't near as loud as they were in the JBC game. That game was awesome if you ask me. And OverTheBack...yeahh I dont know what you are talking about, Tek32 is not stupid, he posted a very well-thought out reply. Owsley County just didnt play as good of a game as they could have played. There wasnt the spark that I saw in the JBC game or previous games this season. Also, Owsley has been over Lee for 15 years, this one little win shouldnt get your hopes up. I believe that if Owsley gets their act back together and gets a little better officiating, they will be great in districts!!

Plus Lee will have to play worse defense and play bad offense and Owsley will have to be on their A game. Geesh, give credit to Lee for beating you guys.

Owsley could have and would have beat them if it wasnt for bad officiating and Smith and Neeley forcing themselves into too many shots! Alson, where Lee had already beaten them twice, Owsley choked big time. They should have beaten the bobcats but they came up short! Good luck to the owls in their next game!

I will give credit to lee for beating Owsley because they were simply the best team that night.....However I dont believe u have watched alot of 14ht region ball to say that Lee would have to play bad and the owls would have 2 play great for the Owls to get a W.......There is not a team in the region that has played great all season.... I dont follow the owls every game but every time I watch them play I see alot of improvement..... for the owls to beat a great sf team and a great jbs team then lose like that to Lee....Well something was just not clicking...I caught the last half and from what I seen the smith kid was the only one from owsley that wanted to play... when neeley and smith are playing team ball they are a very good team

Very True Basketball fan, Daniel Neeley and Robert Smith are two great ball players, but when they decide to run a two man game the owls suffer. None the less, Lee played very solid defence and denied the Owls the perimeter shots and forced them to run an inside game, which caused major problems for the owls younger players! Congrats to Lee and it was a tough loss against the Mustang's
