Board of Control Meeting (KHSAA Bylaws 6 and 7)
theguru posted a topic in KY Football (High School),
"The Board has spent the bulk of the last two years reviewing the changing landscape of both school enrollment patterns and transfer restrictions throughout the country and now clearly has its sights set on finalizing a proposal for membership consideration," said Commissioner Julian Tackett. "The Board will finalize that proposal development at its July meeting so a vote can be taken by the membership in September. Clearly, our members and constituencies do not want any form of a one-time, no-criteria, free transfer for every student athlete currently subject to Bylaw 6, so this research has been invaluable in identifying issues to help alleviate concerns about the rule without sacrificing key values around interscholastic athletics.

Sacred Heart 65 George Rogers Clark 60 (Clarkโs Pump-N-Shop Girlsโ Sweet 16ยฎ Championship)
16thBBall Fan posted a topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School),
Sacred Heart earned its fifth consecutive state championship and ninth overall title in school history.
Clark County had a 3 point lead and the ball with about 1:20 left in the game but too many turnovers such as 10 second calls and errant passes allowed Sacred Heart to defeat them in the end.
Zakiyah Johnson made a huge 3 and a driving shot in the lane to help them regain the lead in the closing seconds.

Final NKY Girls Basketball Top 10 (Week of 2/24/25)
The Double Deuce posted a topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School),
The only real "wow" win for NKY this week was Dixie knocking off KY #5 (and likely 11th Region finalist), Franklin County.ย Sounds like a crazy last 7:46 as the Colonels finished the game on a 16-1 run!ย What a win for our 9th Region Coach of the year, Joel Steczynski and his team!ย Way to represent the area!
You'll see the district match-ups below, and in some cases I presume a winner to show match-ups down the road, please know that I mean no offense to those teams that I assume won't win their semi-final.ย Just want to give people a view of what is likely to happen so everyone can plan on which games to attend around the area later this week!ย Thanks again for a great season, and good luck to everyone this week in their District Tournaments, and for our finalists, onto their respective Regions starting as early as this next Sunday at NKU for the 9th.

Statewide Rankings: Week 10
DragonFire posted a topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School),
*St. X still consensus #1 in all polls with all first place votes. Two road games next week at Jeffersontown and North Oldham may present some challenge, but it looks like St. X is going to remain in this position through the end, and may not lose to a Kentucky team this year.
*Great Crossing was back to a consensus #2 and Frederick Douglass a consensus #3 as KSR flip flopped them back. No other team was conensus top 5.
*Danville Christian and Hazard join the above three as consensus top 10 teams. Bryan Station was rated in the top 6 of three polls, but my personal "favorite" Kentucky High School Sports Zone dropped them all the way to 10th. Green County was also denied by KYHSZ, who had them 17th while the other three had them top 10.
*Kentucky High School Sports Zone continues to be the only one to rank Boyd County - though they did drop them to 10th despite no losses, which was... odd.
*There are eight unicorns this week (a team that was rated by only a single outlet). Boyd County continues to be the weirdest of those. As with last week, KSR continues to be the only one to believe in PRP (#14). Additionally, we have South Oldham (NE 19), Trinity (KYHSZ 20), Simon Kenton (NE 21), Henderson County (KSR 21), South Laurel (KYHSZ 24), and Lexington Catholic (KYHSZ 25).
*Nations Elite seemed unusually harsh and overreactive to some results. That Marshall County loss induced them to drop the Marshals from 5th to 14th, the only outlet to have the Marshals out of the top 10. Warren Central was dumped 12 spots from 11th to 23rd after losing to Butler County, and likely would have fallen out altogether if they'd lost to Bowling Green.
*KYHSZ had Adair County up to 4th this week. I'm curious to see how far they drop after losing to Warren Central on Tuesday. No other outlet had Adair above 10th.
*17 teams were consensus rated this week (down from 20 last week)

NKY Girls Basketball Top 10 (Week of 2/10/25)
The Double Deuce posted a topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School),
Notre Dame settled the debate in the 35th, at least for now, and if Sophia stays healthy they look like the best threat to Cooper to win the 9th.ย She is such a difference-maker this year!ย Holy Cross comes off the narrow road win at NewCath yesterday with three BRUTAL games this week, so if nothing else, they'll be "battled tested" as they enter the post-season.ย Dixie dropped two games to Ohio teams before picking up a win yesterday.ย Brossart and NewCath appear to be coming together, Scott appears to be sliding back a little, and Campbell County is impossible to predict from one day to the next (as is often the case with a team is so perimeter-oriented).ย In Ryle's case below, I'm factoring in the sad news that they have lost Jaelyn Jones for a few games.
This week has some interesting games, beyond Holy Cross' gauntlet, with Cooper playing Dixie, SK getting Sacred Heart in Independence, Notre Dame getting state #2 GRC, and Campbell County and Dixie tangling in Edgewood.ย Should make for a great week!

*For the first time this year, the unicorn love is really spread around. Usually, it's KYHSZ that has the majority, as their rankings are frequently inexplicable. We have four unicorns this week (a team that was rated by only a single outlet). Cooper graduates from this status as they are up to four oulets, as does Newport which were rated by Nations Elite in addition to KYHSZ this time. Boyd County (KYHSZ 18) continues to be a team that is only loved by KYHSZ. The others are North Oldham (NE 22), Jeffersontown (KSR 23), and North Bullitt (Media 24), with North Bullitt remaining a unicorn from last week by the same source. Clay County falls out of the ranks entirely this week.
