I was up at Hughes HS in Cincy and watch Ballard & Fern Creek go 7-1 between them going against OH high schools. I have no idea how good those teams were relative to this upcoming season, but they were bigger public high schools in the Cincy area. Ballard went 3-1 losing only to Lakota East while Fern Creek had 4 wins coming by large margins.

 

Do not sleep on Ballard this season. They are smaller, but Renner will have another fine season and if they get the transfer(s) that is being mentioned in small circles then watch out.

Agree those 2 kids will help. And if they get Anas' brother then they will have some size also.

Does Ballad have Keita?

 

 

Will Fern Creek be in Casey County tomorrow?

No on Keita that I am aware, yes on FC @ Casey tomorrow.

If true, these transfers will once again start the talk of how being AAU teammates is impacting high school transfers. Since Ballard lost Dow to that potential influence they were due to have it work in their favor this time.

 

In regard to the younger brother of Anas (UofL player from Egypt), he has been rumored for some time to be coming to the US, but until he physically arrives it remains speculation. I feel Trinity will have a dog in that hunt as well should he really make it to the US for this upcoming season.

I'm thinking we are at the beginning of the AAU teammates becoming high school teammates epidemic.

Casey County is EST. I'll see what I can find out.

I heard a group of kids from Owensboro was in Cincy playing over the wkend. Anybody know if they were at this same event?

Which Cincy schools did they play?

Ballard and FC never played each other, but played some common opponents. I can't recall them all, but to name a few teams that either Ballard or FC played....Hughes, Winton Woods, Aiken, Lakota East, King, & Woodward

Games at Hughes during the summer are usually pretty rough...if you don't show up and play with a little toughness, you're in for a long day. No blood, no foul....
