I saw a tweet put out by Kentucky Premier on Monday 1/11 announcing that Justus Martin had committed to Georgetown College. She joins other 8th region top players who have committed to Gtown in Kaci Currens (Anderson County) and Hailey Ison (Walton-Verona) Martin will also join former South Oldham stand out Abbey VanZandt who is the starting PG for the tigers this season. -

Coaches have resigned- believe yesterday. Feel bad for the players. -

Could not agree more Retro! Lack of funds appears to be a factor IMO. Indiana has several big time $$ sponsors. -
Wow! Pretty bad that he did not say her name correct nor is he one that is that familiar with the girls game. Congrats to Maci- something she will remember for the rest of her life.

East / West All Star game
crazy8s replied to gold sunrise's topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School)
Any one have a list of players for each side? Sounds like a high scoring affair. It use to be that all the players shared the minutes equally and mass subs every 5 minutes with 20 minute halves. -
Thanks for info. Am curious as to how/where they got names to invite? Cost is only $10. You would have to get a lot of players to make any money.

Oldham County 62 South Oldham 45

It has been 10 years! Season ended poorly for the Lady Dragons- 6 straight losses. Oldham had a effective, well prepared game plan which they executed perfectly. They did not press and sat back in a zone which South had no offense for- just an ugly game for the dragons all around. Well officiated game. Coach Bryant did a great job for Oldham. His energy on the sidelines was fun to watch. Championship game on Friday will be a good one. Give the edge to Trimble with their overall size and ability to score in the post. -
Sometimes, no matter the talent, teams/players/coaches just do not gel together, especially with girls IMO. Happened with South Oldham as well. Lost in the first round of districts on their home court last night. First time they have not been to region tournament in about 10 years.

Perfectly said!

Interesting- which gets to thought process as to how do some of these coaches even vote for players if they never play against them. Yes I know they talk to each other but in this situation, with first year coaches, South was at a distinct disadvantage IMO, and averages do not always tell the whole story. Wilson leads in scoring then VanZant (both at 13+ ppg) then Jones with 11 ppg. But look at the shot attempts- how many more the top two take as compared to their averages. Jones draws the best defender in most games, especially within the district, which opens up the lane for driving. Kind of the Coach Cal analogy regarding efficiency and productivity and what you do without the basketball never gets tracked. All three of these South seniors are top 15 in the region based on talent and skill but voting will never come out that way. Happy for those that made it and sad for those who were also deserving but were over looked. Go get em' in the district and region tournaments. Success there is more important!

Erin Wilson from South Oldham has had huge performances of late and has numerous good games against region opponents Appears to be ahead of some on the list. Guess reputation may have as much influence as statistics. Does each coach present a list of their nominees for coaches to consider?
