Lyon teams win


three quarters. But Caldwell outscored St. Mary 21-15 in the fi nal frame to pull out the six-point triumph.

Rachel Guess scored 19 points and Alex Durbin had 11 for St. Mary, which lost its fi fth straight con-test.

The game was a late addition to the schedule. Strangely enough, it was the fi rst time Caldwell and St. Mary had met in girls basketball, despite the schools being just about an hour apart.

With six games left in

the regular season, the Lady Tigers are closing in on a winning record. They will continue their quest on Friday when they visit Madisonville-North Hop-kins as part of a boys and girls 7th District double-header.

JV Tigers rollCaldwell’s junior var-

sity squad picked up a lop-

sided win Saturday night, defeating Crittenden County 48-16 at the CAB gym.

The Tigers held the Rockets to no fi eld goals in the fi rst half, leading 15-1 after one quarter and 30-2 at halftime.

Caldwell took a 41-8 lead to the fourth quarter.

Dee Cain led the JV Ti-gers with nine points while Damonta Hopson and Kale Dyer each had eight.

Caldwell also got fi ve points apiece from Jacob Burke and Tabor Cum-mins, Elijah Anderson had four and Jerome Brown three.

Jesse Oliver and Josh Young had two points apiece while Ben Martin and Landon Mitchell each had one point.

The answer to only one of several hundred questions surrounding the Sears BracketBusters slate of games scheduled for mid-February was known prior to Monday’s nat ional ly te levised release of the matchups.

Regardless of the opponent — or time — Murray State fans were ready.

That fact was evi-denced last Friday, when tickets for the Feb. 18 game sold out some 22 days before the game itself.

On Monday evening, players and managers, as well as first-year head coach Steve Prohm and his staff, piled into the Murray State locker room after practice to learn its fate.

As the announcement was made that the Racers would get fellow top-25 foe St. Mary’s, players collectively cheered, loud enough so the noise car-ried into the hallway out-side the locker room.

Steve Prohm’s initial reaction was a little dif-ferent, however.

“I only have one mem-ory of St. Mary’s and it’s not a good one,” Prohm said with a smile after learning of his team’s matchup with the Gaels.

In just his third game as an assistant coach back in 2006, Prohm was on then head coach Billy Kennedy’s bench when St. Mary’s defeated Murray State by a count of 62-44.

Now, Prohm and the Racers will get an oppor-tunity to avenge that loss in front of a national audience, but the first-year head coach of the only undefeated team in the nation said 2006 was too long ago to elicit any type of motivational material.

“That was too long ago,” Prohm said. “But we still have more games to play before then. They guys will probably cele-brate this for about 30 minutes and then forget about it until we get ready to prepare for that game.”

The Racers will need to in order to make it to Feb. 18 blemish-free.

Murray State will host t h e O h i o Va l l e y Conference’s second place team Southeast M i s s o u r i S t a t e o n Thursday before making t h e t r i p t o r i v a l Tennessee-Martin on Saturday.

Junior guard Isaiah Canaan said the Racers are excited about the matchup, but they won’t think about it for very long.

“It’s exciting to be on national television and get more exposure and things like that,” Canaan said. “We are definitely excited about that and about the chance, but we still have to take care of business before then here with SEMO.”

The Racers have enjoyed recent success in the BracketBusters, win-n i n g g a m e s o v e r Evansville and Morgan State the previous two seasons, but suffered a loss in 2009 against Louisiana Tech.

The Racers are joined by every other team in the OVC as participants in this year’s Bracket-

Busters, in a field that features 142 total teams from 16 conferences — the biggest field in the history of the event.

The Racers will take center-stage amongst them all, however.

Murray State vs. St. Mary’s will be the pre-mier game of the event, and the only pitting two top-25 ranked teams against one another.

The game will take place in the prime-time, 5 p.m. timeslot and will either be broadcast on ESPN or ESPN2, the first game the Racers have played on one of those two networks since their Ohio Valley Conference championship victory over Morehead State in 2010.

That same season Murray State faced OVC rival Austin Peay on ESPN2.

The Feb. 18 tilt will serve as one of the Racers’ final contests of the 2011-2012 regular season, and will serve as a spr ingboard into Murray State’s final two games — a road tilt

against Tennessee State followed by the season finale in Cookeville, Tenn. against Tennessee Tech.

Racers move into AP top 10

For the first time in Murray State’s history, the men’s basketball team moved into the top ten of the Associated Press Poll, up one spot from last week’s ranking after a win over Eastern Illinois on Saturday.

The Racers remained at the No. 9 spot in the E S P N / U S A To d a y Coaches Poll.

Murray State head coach Steve Prohm said he didn’t expect to move too much this week because of what the teams ahead of him were able to do.

“The teams right there above us had a good week,” Prohm said. “We didn’t think we would move up too much, and we were able to do that in the AP Poll because Georgetown lost to Rutgers.”
