BluegrassPreps 10th Region Week 8 Review and Rankings

Week 8 Review & Rankings

              Another week of basketball is in the books. It was a fairly slow week as the only top 5 matchup we saw was between Bracken and Harrison counties. Despite this, many teams in the 10^th were able to find success as only 2 teams were without a win this week. Let’s dive into our week 8 Rankings!

Rankings (record, change in ranking)

1.       George Rogers Clark (17-1, -)

The Cardinals remain one of the few teams who haven’t been beat by a Kentucky team this year. They continue to roll through opponents, with an average win differential of over 27 points per game.

2.       Mason County (16-4, -)

A fairly slow week for the Royals as they didn’t play great against Pendleton, but they were able to win by 18. Only 1 game this week for Mason, they will look to take down Montgomery and Rockcastle County next week.

3.       Bracken County (14-5, -)

Another big win this week for the Polar Bears as they won another close game, this time against Harrison County. Bracken County now has a 10-0 record against regional opponents. They will play in the All-A State Tournament this Thursday against Walton-Verona, and they will do their best to continue this hot streak they’ve been on as of late.

4.       Harrison County (11-6, -)

One close loss and one big win for this Harrison County team. They will look to solidify themselves as the 1 seed in the 38^th district in the next couple of weeks as they have 3 district games on the way.

5.       Campbell County (9-10, -)

One and One on the week, with a loss to Holy Cross and a win against Holmes. If the Camels are going to prove they can make a deep run they need to do it now. They continue to lose tight game after tight game. Obviously this is a highly talented team with a great coaching staff. Will they be able to make the leap from a good to great team before its too late?

6.       Augusta (8-10, -)

7.       Calvary Christian (13-6, -)

8.       Bishop Brossart (7-12, -)

9.       Montgomery County (5-11, -)

10.   Scott High (2-15, +1)

11.   Robertson County (9-7,-1)

12.   Bourbon County (4-12, -)

13.   Pendleton County (3-16, +2)

14.   Nicholas County (6-13, -)

15.   Paris (4-11, -2)

16.   St. Patrick (2-15,-)
