Class 1A

With the playoffs starting, the teams in Class 1A had one last opportunity to make a statement or get momentum in their respective season finales. Beechwood made one final statement by crushing 2A Newport Central Catholic and will enter November as the prohibitive favorite. Paintsville, the consensus #2 team, followed suit by hammering 3A Fleming County. Perhaps the hottest team is Paris. The Greyhounds polished off Ludlow, proving they are ready for competition from rival Districts. With numerous teams earning First Round byes, a couple games stand out for this week's slate. Lynn Camp and Phelps have both show vast improvement and will look to continue the magic. Holy Cross finished just outside of the Top 10 and will draw Ludlow in what should be perhaps the most competitive game.

 

1. Beechwood -- BYE

2. Paintsville vs. Nicholas County

3. Kentucky Country Day vs. Dayton

4. Hazard vs. Pineville

5. Raceland vs. Bishop Brossart

6. Paris -- BYE

8. Ludlow vs. Louisville Holy Cross

9. Williamsburg -- BYE

10. Frankfort vs. Bellevue

It still seems like Beechwood and everyone else. It will be interesting to see who comes out of the east bracket.
