The second day of the National City Bank/KHSAA Boys Sweet Sixteen Basketball Tournament concluded last night. There were some upsets, some great games overall, and an amazing game to top off the night. Here are the results from yesterday’s games. Click on the bracket to go to the official LIVE bracket that updates throughout the day during the tournament.

I attended both games last night and was especially excited and impressed with Mason County vs Elliot County. Both teams came into the game with excellent records from their regular season this year. Mason County got the lead and kept it by about 4 to 8 points up until half time, with Elliot County right on their tail. Shortly after the second half of the game started, Elliot County was able to make a few crucial plays and overtake Mason County for the lead. After that point, the game went back and worth with no team leading the other by more than about 6 points. Near the end, there was a 2 point difference and a clutch free-throw opportunity that could mean the difference between either team winning, or going into overtime. Both shots were made which put Mason County ahead by two possessions, and led to their victory. Below are a few photos I captured of the fans for both teams and the score board right before the free-throws.

James Crisp, one of our house photographers, was able to attend and capture photos from all the game. There are great photos of each match-up of the day. Take a look at some of the great shots James was able to get from the arena floor.

Stay tuned for for the rest of the tournaments. Each day I will be recapping what went on and likely attending a few of the games. There are also a few side articles/videos that may pop up either today or during the final day of the tournament, tomorrow.
