How about you start the discussion. Why did you choose those teams as winners?

I didn't want to write a dissertation on each game. Happy to answer any specific questions on the game I picked. Really just wanted to see if everyone agreed these are the best games and make sure I didn't miss one. Should be a fun night of basketball state wide.

Picking Collegiate to beat St. X is strong. St. X won 59-52 when they played on January 7, at Collegiate. Tonight's game is at St. X. I don't know who will win, but I can assure you both teams believe they are going to win. Should be a good one.

I would think Greenup and Lewis County could be added to the list given the circumstances.
