4 NKY teams in the Top 20......Nice.

Looks solid.

IMO: LexCath a little low, Eastern a little high

Doss ahead of Lincoln County which beat Doss by seven at Mercer County tourney in December.

This one looks much more realistic than the LIT rankings...although I'd have Lafayette higher.

Long overdue credit for Brossart.

What are Brossart's signature wins this season? Who have they played?

What are Brossart's signature wins this season? Who have they played?

 

Brossart is 17-1, with it's lone loss coming to Holmes in Covington.

 

Signature wins include a 20-pt win over Campbell County, and a 28-pt win over Augusta. I know, not signature enough for you all.

Brossart will have an opportunity to earn more respect in the All A Tourney.

I would guess DeSales is probably their signature victory. And I agree with LCD on the Campbell County win. It's not so much that they beat Campbell, but how they beat them that was impressive.

 

Brossart may indeed be a top 20 team in the state, but I don't believe they have the resume for it quite yet. As I've said before, the All "A" will tell us a great deal about the Stangs IMO.

I can't imagine they are good enough wins to warrant top 20. They can be good. We don't know. All we know is they got hammered in their one tough game. Let's be honest. For a team that people want to be recognized they have an unimpressive schedule. The A may help with a game or two. NCC will help. Mason County. Win those and they're top 20. Until then... I'd have Dixie ahead of them if we have to pick a team from NKY (and I don't think Dixie is top 20).

I'd have PRP up in the 3 or 4 range.

I was told over the weekend that Jake Jennings broke his wrist during practice on Friday. This is not good news for Mustang fans when your starting point guard goes down, truly feel bad for the kid.

That sucks. Sad. My youngest broke his arm this year... definitely an emotional roller coaster ride. I hope he has a fast recovery.

It's hard to respect any ranking system that has Henry Clay in the top 15.
