Coach Kirk Maska Postgame Interview

Boys: Hays 61, Pratt 27
It took the Indians a couple of minutes in the first quarter to shake off the holiday rust, but once they got rolling Pratt had no answer for the third rated team in class 5A. Pratt led early on a pair of free throws just 30 seconds in the game. Hays would then score the games next 15 points to lead 15-2 after the first quarter. The lead would dwindle only once to 11 points and never be close again as Hays moves to 6-0 with a 61-27 victory in Pratt on Tuesday night.

Hays shot 46% from the floor making 21 of 46 shots. Pratt made just eight field goals, two of which came in the games final 90 seconds.

The Indians put three into double figures led by Jordan Windholz scoring 14, Brady Werth added 12 and Clayton Riedel chipped in 10 off the bench. Pratt drops to 1-4 on the year.

Hays is back in action on Friday to open up Western Athletic Conference play against Liberal.

Girls: Larned 44, TMP 40, OT
For the second straight game the TMP Lady Monarchs went to overtime but the result was not as pretty losing 44-40 to Larned on Tuesday. TMP trailed the entire game until they took the lead at 38-37 late in the fourth quarter. The Lady Monarchs would extend that lead to three points with just under 30 seconds remaining. Larned’s Shaylene Shepherd banked in a three pointer to tie the game with 10 seconds remaining in regulation. TMP was not able to get a shot off late and the game moved to overtime tied at 10.

In the extra period there was very little offense as Larned scored one bucket as well as two free throws. TMP was held scoreless. The Lady Monarchs are now two and five overall, oh and two in Mid Central Activities Association play. TMP will be on the road at Abilene on January 14th.

Boys: Larned 78, TMP 61
The Larned Indians started Tuesday’s league tilt with TMP on a 10 to two run and never looked back. The Indians led by 10 after the first quarter and 13 at the half. The Monarchs were able to get the game to single digits late in the third quarter but Larned responded and took a commanding 22 point lead throughout much of the fourth quarter.

TMP is now three and four overall and one and one in the Mid Central Activities Association. They will travel to Abilene next Tuesday.

No. 25 Kansas State runs win streak to 10

Posted on January 7, 2014January 8, 2014

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) – Thomas Gipson scored 19 points, Marcus Foster added 16 and No. 25 Kansas State ran its winning streak to 10 games with a 65-47 victory over TCU on Tuesday night.

The Wildcats (12-3, 2-0 Big 12), who made their way into the Top 25 for the first time this season on Monday, played their first true road game of the season.

Amric Fields scored 14 points and Kyan Anderson added 12 for TCU (9-5, 0-2), which trailed 31-21 at halftime.

The Horned Frogs used a 10-2 run to get within 36-33 with 13:45 to play, but Kansas State responded with a 9-3 run – keyed by a wide-open 3-pointer by Shane Southwell – and the Wildcats’ lead wouldn’t dip below seven points for the rest of the game.

Foster, the reigning Big 12 newcomer of the week, hit two 3-pointers in a one-minute span late in the second half. The Wildcats hit 7 of 15 3-pointers overall.
