2 teams from the 14th Region.

Brossart gets a tough bracket. I can see them likely playing PCC and advancing to play Roger Bacon.

 

Henry Clay should come out of the other side.

Appreciate your confidence in us. Oldham, PCC, and Roger Bacon are Murderers' Row.

 

We signed up for the RBC gig looking for some strong competition. Looks like we've found it.

 

Hoping for the best!!!

WOW. What 3 schools is this that is in Kenton Co?

SK, Scott and Dixie most likely. Lots of rural roads with heavy inclines makes for challenging bus travel even in good weather.

Simon Kenton doesn't play until tomorrow.

Dixie and Scott will be moved to the losers bracket since neither were allowed to travel today.

Henry Clay, 7 other ranked teams in Republic Bank Holiday Classic tournament

 

 

 

Henry Clay, No. 5 in the Herald-Leader's pre-season coaches' poll, is the highest rated team in the Republic Bank Holiday Classic this week, but the Blue Devils will have plenty of competition in the boys' tournament at Lexington Catholic.

The 21-team field also includes the No. 8 host Knights, No. 10 John Hardin, No. 14 Perry Central, No. 16 Johnson Central, No. 19 Knott Central, No. 24 Ohio County and No. 25 Butler.

Two Cincinnati teams — Princeton and Roger Bacon — can't be overlooked.

Trinity won last year's Holiday Classic on its way to the state title. Henry Clay beat the defending champs a couple of weeks ago, and followed that by taking the Woodford County Invitational, beating No. 9 Scott County in the finals.

Ohio County (11-0) has the best record of any team in the tournament. Unbeaten Knott Central (9-0) is led by sophomore star Camron Justice, who is averaging 26 points.
