Before the Joe Machens Great 8 Classic began, Blair Oaks coach Ryan Fick just wanted his Falcons to advance to the winner’s bracket side in the tournament. Well, Fick got a lot more than he bargained for, and he’s quite OK with that.
The Capital City Cavaliers had plenty of quickness Monday night, but the Tulsa Union (Okla.) Redhawks had plenty of height.
“I thought our guys played as hard as they could,” Capital City coach Darrin Young said after the Cavaliers’ 67-31 first-round loss to the Redhawks in the Joe Machens Great 8 Classic at Fleming Fieldhouse.
