You don't have to play on three straight nights to win the 8th region. The format, unless it has changed, is Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Championship Saturday. My hope, not to knock any other team, is to see Oldham and Shelby play for the trip to Rupp. If that happens the electric atmosphere at Henry County won't be loss on the departure of B. East and Scott Co.

How big is the Henry County gym? I remember passing by their as a youth and it looked large, is it around 4,500 or so?

I believe that is about right. The facility is somewhat unique in that the bleachers are in a horseshoe type of configuration. The stage is on one end and the bleachers go down the side and are on the opposite end. There are no lower bleachers on this opposite end and there is some space between the backboard and where the bleachers begin. Kind of a strange shooting background. Sometimes bothers teams the first couple of times playing there. Overall an excellent facility to host the regional which it has done for at least 35-40 years if not longer.
