Basically we think of NKY as a 3 county area that has all the schools within 30 miles from each other. The counties are Boone, Kenton and Campbell.

 

Not a school I can't get to in 25 minutes.

I was being generous lol. That is why I said "within" 30 miles.

Sorry, was just a statement supporting your post that we are rather close by each other around here as opposed to the WKY area proposed that allowed for teams hours apart.

You are right.

 

If if we were to use the same driving distances WKY would use, NKY would stretch to and include louisville schools too lol

You could argue that within the Purchase area west of LBL that there's nowhere you can't be within 30 minutes. It's a pretty condensed area, which much fewer people per square mile than Boone/Campbell/Kenton counties.

2 teams in my small town are in. That is more impressive than anything else. Possible new title town. Murray is just down road. I think having the 3 so close with a fraction of the population says volumes. By the NKY IS ALSO IMPRESSIVE

Isn't there 12 semifinal games?

 

Product of too many classes. 24 teams in semis in KY?

Three counties with five teams in the semis. That is one team for every 76,000 people.

 

Graves Co and Calloway Co have a total of 76,000 people with three teams. One team for every 25,333 people.

We are looking at the vicinity of these schools. How close are the 3 schools you are talking about and we are still talking 5 from NKY.

 

Also remember we aren't talking about all those people going to only those 5 schools. There are 27 high schools in that area we are talking about. (about 13k per school) so if my research is correct you have 4 High Schools in those 2 counties compared to 27 in NKY

which means those 4 schools drawfrom an avg of 19k pele which is more than the 13k the NKY schools draw from on avg.

 

Now I will say if those 2 counties have 3 of their 4 High school teams in the semis then that is impressive big time.

There are even more in other states.
