One option would be to allow the regional winner and runner-up to attend the tournament. That would increase the field to 32 teams with a draw format. No way that anyone should want to have the format set up like the current football playoffs. There are too many classes in football and should only be the top teams in their districts with the possibility of a wild card for a few teams.

Congratulations Bellevue girls basketball. I wouldn't call this an upset. I believed that Bellevue came to play and was prepared to show that their program has worked hard and earn the "W". NewCath girls are a good team overall so congrats to them on a good season.

I consider this game to be a toss-up. Lloyd's defense last week was all over the offense line of NewCath. NewCath will need to have a solid week of preparing their O-line to be more aggressive up front. Overall should be a good game and come down to the final few minutes of the fourth quarter.

Late 70's and early 80's Newport had a red Cats logo the black Cats logo was mid 80's.

I like that look of two different logos. Newport mid 80's had NHS on one side and Cats on the other. Nice balance look.

Just for fun. Any schools with a new look or staying with traditional look?

Agree 100% - this is an area within the football playoffs that needs to be addressed. But as far as basketball; I like the Sweet 16. I was merely curious as to others thoughts about it and overall it looks like we all agree.

Yeah I understand that and agree 100%. Was just thinking how the Region is setup and the possibility of a runner up reaching the top. But overall I agree I like it how it is now.

Just a thought. Kentucky has had the Sweet 16 for ever it seems. So my question is, what if the runner up in the region was able to attend it. Like I stated just a thought. But curious as to other opinions.

Why not develop a wild card system. Use the RPI to establish wild card teams.

Very sad to hear about the lack of discipline for Newport football. This is a major area of concern for them as a school district that needs to address. Football is suppose to help teach us the values we need to survive in life.

I'm thinking that NewCath was playing their JV in the second half against Bellevue. But as they say, Any given Sunday! Well this case Friday. Lol

Not to discredit Dayton, NewCath is more discipline. Dayton will need to be discipline, not allow themselves to fall apart if NewCath jumps out to a quick lead. NewCath will need to play their normal style of play and not let up if they jump out to a quick lead. Basically leave no doors open for the other for opportunities.

And this in my opinion is the issue with the current playoff system. But that is a thread to explore after the season.

Really surprised with this score. I thought Holmes would have played better.
