Smallhoops Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 If the voting for Mr. Basketball took place now, I suspect he would win. However. I believe the voting took place before the postseason began, when fewer people around the state were very familiar with him. Still might happen. He is deserving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure but a good guess would be the 11th region. Both Henry Clay and Lafayette have 6 championships. I know LexCath has won it at least twice. Madison Central once. Dunbar once. Scott County would have has had a title since entering the 11th from the 8th. I’m sure there’s several more schools with titles in the 11th.

16thBBall Fan Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 With Highlands title so much for the argument for the unfairness of finishing the tournament on Saturday night. Highlands played 4 games in 3 days. They played the 8:00pm game on Friday night and the 2:00pm game on Saturday afternoon then the 8:00pm championship (3 games in 24 hours). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
