Borgia 52-----------@Jackson 76

The Knights 15-10 are on a 3-game losing streak to end their regular season ( Vianney, Duchesne and Jackson ). The second season is when the Borgia Knights usually shine but this could be year for someone else to win class 4 district 9 but don't count the Knights out just yet.

metro, please evaluate Borgia

strengths, weakness,etc. Have they been somewhat disappointing to you at this point?

Speaking of Borgia, what's up with Coach Dave Neier? It was mentioned several times on KLPW 's post game that he is not well.

Borgia has lost 10 games this season but look who they played

The Borgia Knights 15-10. Lost 4 out of their last 5 game.The Knights have played a major-major schedule. The competition in class 4 distinct 9 will not overwhelm the Borgia Knights since they have played teams equal to or better then district 9 teams. The Knights are a proud traditional team who have dominated class 4 district 9 teams for years.

The thing that could be a problem for Borgia could be the " Confidence Factor " since the Knights have been lost badly in 4 of their 10 defeats. These 4 teams Class 3 Ritter,Class 4 St. Charles, Class 5 Vianney and Class 5 Jackson put a serve beating on the Borgia Knights. What did Coach Dave Neier say to convince his team that they are " District Ready ".

Here are the teams who have defeated the Borgia Knights this season.

1. CBC
2. Poplar Bluff
3. Ritter
4. St. Charles
5. Columbia Rock Bridge--( Twice )
6. Pacific---( Overtime @ Borgia )
7. Vianney
8. Duchesne--( Won on and lost one )
9. Jackson

The Knight are a uptempo team, pressing team, Zone and man-man half court. The Knight's quickness is average @ best.

Top 3 players:

1. Walter Ecelkamp 6-2" Jr. ( Big outside 3-point shooter--scores in bunches ) 15.7 PPG
2. Luke Deline--------6'3" Jr. ( Luke is coming on strong--Dives to basket and can shoot outside ) 11.5 PPG
3. Alex Mozilla-------6'7" Soph ( Can score inside and appear to be improving )
4. The others are good players as well but Eckelkamp, Deline and Mozilla appears to take a lead role in the offense.

As you can see the Borgia Knights are a very young team with a bright future, the trick here, Is the future now or next year.

Class 4 district 9 appears to be up for grabs. The team who is " District Ready " will advance and play most likely Rolla in the sectionals and will become the underdog.
