I don't think it's rigged, but maybe the other committee members overlooked her.

Final from All "A" State first round.

This should be a very good tournament this year. While arguably the two best teams in the tourney are in the top half of the bracket, the top half also consists of 6 of the top 9 teams according to the Cantrell Rankings. I think several teams could give LCA and NCC a run for their money before the championship. As most have said, the bottom half is wide open with a lot of very good matchups. The Elliott Co. versus Green Co. game should be as good a first round game as there is. While LCA comes in the favorite, they are a beatable team. I can't wait to watch some good basketball and good luck to all those participating and safe travels to all those who make the trip.

Final from Bishop Brossart. Paris leads wire to wire and holds off a very scrappy St. Pat. Congrats to both teams and good luck to Paris in Richmond. -
Final. Paris advances to play Deming tomorrow night @ 8pm in the semifinals.

Does anyone know what the cost for these games are today? -
St. Patrick dropped from Bourbon Tourneys?

Again, nobody was left off of any schedule. Until a contract is signed by BOTH parties, games are not put on a schedule. -
I agree that to us geography isn't much of an issue since most teams play each other anyway. If you were going to split it up, then I would say put two All "A" schools in each district and then try to even it up without overloading any one disrict. I know every district has its ups and downs, but some are harder on a yearly basis overall. The 40th is brutal as it stands, but the above mentioned idea with Mason, Montgomery, Clark and Harrison would be worse. This is where I wish the KHSAA would do away with district tournaments and implent a larger regional competition with district seeding so tougher districts don't always beat each other up until later in the tournament.

Geographically it doesn't make sense and you leave Nicholas Co. out to dry. Nicholas and Paris are in a tough situation since geographically they are surrounded by much bigger schools. Three quarters of the All "A" teams are from the north part of the 10th, so I'm not sure there is a logical way to balance the districts. It is an interesting discussion though.

St. Patrick dropped from Bourbon Tourneys?

Butterfly, I apologize. I misunderstood what the original poster was talking about. I was refering to the KY Bank Shootout which St. Pat had discussions in playing. I'm pretty sure however that Bourbon nor Paris would've left them off the schedule if they had a contract to attend the tournament after Christmas. I know Coach Sosby and Coach Brooks work hard to secure the other 14 teams to play with about half from the 10th region and half from other regions. I can't imagine that either coach would've left St. Pat out if they really were interested in playing. Also, to Thomasmooredad, all schools are responsible for posting their own schedules with riherd. The schedule listed above is different from evey other team involved in the tournament, so not sure what happened there. Could've been a misunderstanding as well. -

This is not a tournament and St. Pat was not dropped. This game was to be one of the two girls games played on friday night of what is generally a boys showcase. From my understanding it was discussed with St. Pat and never confirmed, therefore no contract was sent by Bourbon Co. or by St. Pat. Nobody is afraid and I'm sure most teams will come to respect St. Pat this year if they don't already, but there are certain administrative tasks to pull something like this showcase off. Unfortunately it didn't work out. -
Franklin up 24 - 15 at the half
