It's Only happened twice...and it won't happen this year

[King of the Bluegrass]

Only two teams in 36 years have won the King of the Bluegrass, the LIT and the State Championship in the same school year. Who? Year?

Eastern in 96/97

I don't think Clay or Ballard won in 87/88

 

I'm going to guess one of the Fairdale years. No clue which one.

Do you believe Clay Co. has never played in the KOB....invited...didn't accept.

Trinity in 2012 or so when they won state? (and since they just lost tonight )

Surprising, especially back when Clay was great and the KOB was the nation's marquee event.

Answer: Remember the KOB is played in December...the LIT and State Tournament the next calendar year.

89 KOB - 90 LIT and State Tournament - FAIRDALE

 

93 KOB - 94 LIT and State Tournament - FAIRDALE

I know Eastern won the KOB and State in 1996/97. Who won the LIT that season?
