For the 845th time there is no classification in basketball. The All-A is for the 125 smallest schools that play basketball. The 1A thru 6A only exists in Football. If you must think classification, think of how Track is classified with only 1A, 2A, and 3A.

 

Thank you

AWESOME, if you have never been to this facility to watch a game you need to. You are right on top of the floor, and NOT ONE BAD SEAT IN THE HOUSE.

 

Well, that's not quite true. I can think of at least 2 bad seats when lawnboy is in attendance.

How is it again NCC is A in hoops and AA in football? Any other schools in NKY in two different classes in different sports?

Football class A is for the smallest 32 schools while the "All A" is for the smallest 120 schools in the state. That would mean most of the schools in "All A" are AA or even larger for football.

Well, that's not quite true. I can think of at least 2 bad seats when lawnboy is in attendance.

 

Don't be mad cause you have to work, and your 5 minutes from this place. :wave:

The defending tournament champions started the boys basketball tournament off with the expected bang.

The Newport Central Catholic Thoroughbreds (18-3) handled the Owensboro Catholic Aces, 60-39 to open the All “A” State Tournament on Thursday. All games are taking place at the Frankfort Convention Center.

The Thoroughbreds see different players lead the way in scoring each night and Thursday was no exception. Zack Pangallo led the way with 19 points making three three-pointers. Teammates Drew McDonald and Tanner Moeves followed with 12 and 10 respectively.

NewCath had seven blocked shots to two for OCath. McDonald and Ben Weyer turned away two each for the Thoroughbreds.

The Aces did not see any player reach double-digits. Ryan Clark led them with nine points.

NewCath faces Green County (11-8) at 6:30 p.m. in the tournament quarterfinals. The winner battles either Lexington Christian (13-7) or Louisville Holy Cross (14-4) at 6 p.m. in the semfinals Saturday.
