Madisonville-North Hopkins 57 Lincoln County 49 (KHSAA Boys Sweet Sixteen® Round 1

Final from Rupp.

Final

Lincoln County hung in things, but the Maroons were able to hold a ~10 point lead for most of the game.

Congratulations to the Patriots on a great season, and good luck moving forward to the Maroons!

Why did the Maroons have only the North Hopkins name on their uniform and nothing recognizing Madisonville?

Not that it matters but just wondering?

Was very impressed by Lincoln County's Freshman point guard Jaxon Smith. He sure had the poise that you don't ordinarily see at his age. Will be eager to follow his high school career to see him mature. Won't be surprised to see him playing at the next level some day.

Was surprised at that myself, but there is only so much room for lettering. For years, only the word Maroons was displayed on the uni's.

He’s a gamer. Stated last year as an 8th grader. We like to call him a redshirt freshman.

That's surprising to me, as well, since they usually seem to refer to themselves as "Madisonville" more often than "North Hopkins" or "Madisonville-North Hopkins".

Is there any chance that they have a scenario where home unis say "Madisonville" and away unis say "North Hopkins", or vice versa?

It's pretty hard to spell "Madisonville" on a basketball jersey. The two words of "North Hopkins" make it a little easier.

That is precisely what they have. Madisonville on white jerseys, North-Hopkins on black.
