Covington Catholic vs. Ashland Blazer 3.17.22

We are off in the last game of the evening session for day #2 of the UK Healthcare Boys’ Sweet 16 here at Rupp Arena. Both teams come out the post-game huddles looking ready to go and be the one that punches their ticket into the last spot of the Elite 8. As we near the end of the first half of play looks like Ashland Blazer is starting to pull away in this one; however, as we have saw all week in each game that anything is possible. Under a minute to go before halftime and Covington Catholic cut’s Ashland’s lead to only 8 points, with two seconds left Covington Catholic drills a 3 pointer from behind the arch to make it a 7-point game going into the locker room for halftime. Coming out for this last half of basketball for Day #2 of the Boys’ Sweet 16 both teams are looking to do something here to either keep their lead or in COV Cath’s case cut into Ashland’s lead so that they are able to build one of their own. With 5:14 left to play in the 4th quarter Covington Catholic is up by 5 trying to expand their lead and secure their spot for tomorrow night, 1:20 and now up by 10 points they are holding onto their lead with 41.2 left before the end of the game. During one of the most intense games of the day Covington Catholic is able to pull off the win and move to the Elite 8 to face off for a spot in the Final Four Saturday here in Lexington.
