Knew this would happen as soon as the draw was released. It's too bad. The 12th is better than this.

Since you brought it up...three of the top teams in the 12th, Wayne, Southwestern and West Jessamine...let's see how they fared against the 11th.

Wayne Co lost by 3 to Lexington Catholic (when they brought their own refs) and got blistered yesterday by Madison Central by 25.

Southwestern beat PLD by 2 (first game of the season and PLD had no Will Gary); lost to Lafayette by 24 and Henry Clay by 26.

West Jessamine beat both Woodford and Franklin (both of which were way down) by 4 and 17; lost to PLD by 6, Madison Central by 20 and Henry Clay by 43.

 

So in those 10 games the 12th went 3-7 with an average margin of loss by 12.4, including 5 of those losses by 20 or more. Therefore, the 12th is not very competitive and it is safe to say another 5-6 teams in the 11th would handle Wayne Co fairly easily. The 12th has some good players and great coaches but facts are facts.

Even if Holmes does advance, which I'm doubtful of, I don't think Bolden would stand a chance against a player as good as Hawkins. Bolden = overrated in my opinion.

Let me rephrase since you didn't understand the point I was trying to make.

 

 

 

Wayne County is a better team that what it seemed yesterday. Yes, against the 11th region the 12th region sucked from top to bottom. As would most regions. The 11th region is at worst the 3rd best region in the state. That is why I said we knew the outcome of this game when we saw the draw. Wayne County could have easily gotten a better draw and made the semis. That's all I was saying before you told us stuff we already knew.
