I'd have flipped 4 and 5.

I'm going to remain in wait-and-see mode on the #2 team.

John Hardin will get a true test this Saturday against Madisonville-NH on a neutral court.

Last night’s Madisonville N Hopkins -Lexington Catholic game was a barn burner at Catholic. I saw the highlights on the 11 o’clock Lexington sports news. Knights won on a last second shot to break a tie and keep it from a second overtime.

I agree, #4 & #5 should be switched. Otherwise, pretty accurate IMO.

Out of the top 5 CCH has been the most impressive team IMO. A tough game in Lexington vs what looks like is gonna be a really good LexCath team. Great game vs Oak Hill Academy that ended in a loss, and then a tough loss to Lasalle who can always play ball. But they have some really good wins and just won The Battle at the Villages against stout competition. One team was coached by 14 year NBA vet Charlie Ward, another made back to back 5A final four in Florida. And Blanch Ely is back to back champs in the state of Florida. I think Ballard winning the KOB and how strong they have been to start is a close second but the Colonels have really impressed me getting it together so quickly!

I have been watching a lot of KY High School Basketball and believe it or not I would flip 5 and 6 and I believe 4 is correct and maybe should be higher.

I also agree with what @4 Quarters said about JH.

LexCath has a legit argument for being #4. I think CovCath does as well.

LexCath has definitely been a small surprise so far this season.

I want to see what LexCath does on the road against quality competition.

Same here.

It might happen in the 2A competition, other than that, forget it.

I hear you and how fair to real 2A sized schools that LexCath is in the 2A Classic. :no:

I agree, but I better not go there, because my comments could get deleted. LOL.

Not much different than John Hardin winning it last year. Calling it a 2A anything is a joke.

Back to the Rankings, I see the Highlands Bluebirds are in at #15 thanks to their cotton soft schedule.

Totally agree with both of your statements.
