Week 10 Review and Rankings

Somewhat of a slow week here for the 10^th Region teams this week. The weather took out a large slate of the Friday & Saturday games. Overall, the Region ended with a record of 15-13 for the week. The wins were concentrated heavily within the top 6 teams as the 10^th continues to show it is a very top-heavy region. The rankings this week show somewhat of a large shake up, at least for it being this late in the season. Let’s take a look at the rankings…

Rankings (Record, Change in Ranking)

1.      George Rogers Clark (22-1, -)

The Cardinals continue their dominant run, and it looks like they have a good chance of going undefeated against in-state teams for the regular season.

 

2.      Mason County (18-5, -)

Mason County went 1 and 1 on the week with an out-of-state win and then a loss to a solid Trinity basketball team. They only have 3 games left on the schedule; they have a good chance of passing the 20-win mark before the regular season is over.

 

3.      Bracken County (16-6, -)

Bracken County beat Bishop Brossart by double digits this week. They have somewhat of a weak schedule this upcoming week, and then follow that with what will certainly be there toughest two games of the season as they face Ashland and GRC both in one week.

4.      Harrison County (15-6, -)

Harrison won two games this week and will look to continue winning the rest of the way as they should be the favorite in the remaining 5 games they have on their schedule.

 

5.      Campbell County (12-10, -)

The Camels won their 4^th straight game in a blowout against Calvary this week. The Camels don’t have an easy stretch of games to round out the season, but just like Harrison County they should be the favorite in their remaining games. If the Camels can get 4 out of their next 5 games, they would be riding a hot streak to end the season.

 

Plenty of change from our 6-10 ranked teams. As we continue throughout the season, I still have plenty of difficulty ranking these teams. Augusta seems to be the 6^th best team at least for now, and I believe they have probably proven to have the most upside of these teams. Montgomery finds themselves up 3 spots and that may be a little bit of a jump, but I’m not sure who else deserves it. Scott High picked up their 4^th win of the season but also got beat by 15 by Augusta. It seems like they continue to struggle scoring the ball. Calvary got absolutely blown out by the Camels this week as they lost by 47.  I know Calvary has a great record, but I struggle to find a quality win for this team. They have only faced two of the top 5 teams in the region and both have been blowouts. Calvary has one big game remaining against Bishop Brossart that could lead to a three-way tie for the 2-4 seeds in the 37^th District. Bishop Brossart falls some spots this week after a single loss to Bracken County. Bishop Brossart has certainly faced some tough competition this season, but they’ve lost 5 in a row and due to that they have slid down the rankings this week. They still have an opportunity to pick up a quality win as they play Mason County away.

 

6.      Augusta (11-10, +1)

7.      Montgomery County (7-13, +3)

8.      Scott High (4-17, +1)

9.      Calvary Christian (16-7, -3)

10.   Bishop Brossart (7-14, -2)

11.   Robertson County (10-10, -)

12.   Paris (5-14, +3)

13.   Bourbon County (4-16, -1)

14.   Pendleton County (3-19, -1)

15.   Nicholas County (6-16, -1)

16.   St. Patrick (2-19, -1)

With Brossart beating Calvary, the 3 way tie has occurred.  Do you know what the tiebreaker is?

I am not sure I have heard that last season the 38th district flipped a coin. But I’m not exactly sure how that process works for three different teams

Looks like they must have had a draw.  

Complete seed – Campbell County Number 1, will play Number 4 Calvary.  Scott Number 2 will play Number 3 Brossart.
