Baskeeett Ball Time in the Commonwealth

The girls and boys teams took to the hardwood tonight in 8th region match-ups with the girls travelling to District 32 foe Grant County while the boys hosted Gallatin County at the Joe.

The Pioneer boys looked good coming out of the gate tonight as they jumped out to a first quarter lead of 20-10. SK would get saddled with foul trouble which allowed Gallatin to creep back in the game. The Wildcats would pull to within one at 28-27 in the second quarter. SK would finish with a flurry after Matt Reilly hit a three point buzzer beater to go up 34-29 at the intermission. The Neers had a huge advantage over Gallatin in the size department but the foul trouble kept SK from taking much of a lead.

SK would slowly pull away from the Wildcats during the course of the second half as the Pioneer depth took a toll on Gallatin. You have to give the Wildcats credit though as the scrappy bunch never gave up.

Senior Matt Reilly was dialed in from three point range as the guard dropped in 7 treys for 21 points to lead all scorers. JR Doss, DJ Rabe 13 and Andrew Sampson pitched in 13 each for the Pioneers.


JR Doss goes up for two. JR was rattled by foul trouble much of the game.
