Now that we have the 8 teams set for the 9th Region tournament, I noticed that it is the same 8 teams that made it last year!

 

Conner

Cooper

Dixie

St. Henry

Beechwood

Covington Catholic

Newport

Highlands

 

I wondered if it had ever happened before and looked back all the way to 1937 and have never seen the exact same 8 teams in consecutive seasons!

 

Thought that was a fun fact to share with everyone!

Since the advent of 16 regions in 1932, this is true; however, our local teams (Boone, Campbell, Kenton) were in the 10th Region from 1932-1936, but again, no repeats.

In 1946, only 4 teams were in the Region Tournament.

That is interesting. These teams have battled multiple times in a short period of time and it continues tonight and next week. Thanks for checking it out and posting this.
