This is a better bracket. I understand why their original used old rankings but with the data available and with Male and Seneca having to exit, this should make for a more balanced event.

I agree.

Monday (all games at 7:30 p.m.) – Kentucky Country Day or Evangel Christian (26) at Eastern (7)

I didn't read the article but I'm assuming whoever wins tonight's All "A" Classic first round game moves on and the loser of that game goes to the LIT?

Correct!

Could be at St.X/Trinity rematch in 3rd round.

X has struggled in second half of season 3 years in a row. Curious if it happens again. 

Releasing my 6 & 7 region power rankings that use strength of schedule and victory margin. Each game played generates a rating and then the average of those is the current power rating. Games against 6 & 7 region opponents are only games that count since most of teams share some of same opponents to compare against. This year since public schools have fewer games, may not be as accurate for them as would be in normal season. More games get added in each week so by tourney time will have better measure of them.

Quite a log jam from nos. 3-6.

I just read on Face Book that NFHS will not be allowed to stream any of the LIT games. I don't know if that's true, but I wish some arrangement had been made to stream the games so us "old folks" could watch. I'm very disappointed.

Solid night of basketball. Louisville has a terrific crop of teams this season.

Wish that entire  crop could have been playing on January 4!

Semifinals:

Ballard vs. Fern Creek

DeSales vs. St. Xavier

Friday at Valley HS.

Ballard/Fern Creek should be a good one.

I think both games will be good. St X will play DeSales tougher this time around.
