BluegrassPreps.com 6th Region Boys week 10 review

The 6th region tournament is shaping up to be one to remember - let's see what's shaking this week in the 6th!!

1.  Jeffersontown (16-6) The Chargers, based off another 2-0 week, keep the top spot in the rankings.  The Vasser brothers (sr. Will 13.6ppg and so. Dre 13.4ppg) have been leading the way for the Chargers, but F Lavonte Harris, G Terrall Cleaves and W Xavier Price all chip-in, averaging around 10ppg.   They next play Moore on 2/8, but have an intriguing match up with old rival Ballard this weekend.

2. PRP (17-4)  The Panthers have rebounded nicely from their LIT disappointment with some nice wins.  PRP has an impressive 3-man attack with jr. PG Zee McCown (18.5ppg), jr. F Keith Robinson (18.1ppg), and sr. C Vic Lado (14.6ppg).  Jr. G Greg Cole has also asserted himself lately, contributing at 10pg and taking pressure off of McCown at the point. PRP host HFC on Wed 2/9

3. Western (19-4)  The Warriors bounced back this week with some nice wins, including a big district win over Butler (locks them in the 1 seed for the district tourney).  Jr. G Trent Hinkle leads the team in scoring at 14.8ppg, and is starting to earn some Region POY buzz. Julius Edmonds and fr. Kaden Magwood are also main contributors (both 12ppg) on this deep and very athletic team.  Next up for Western is Southern on 2/8.

 4. Iroquois (18-3)  The  Raiders hold at #4 with a 2-0 week.  The Q is  paced by sr. Davion Burton (13.2ppg), but jr. Jordan Williamson (12.2ppg) is among FOUR starters that average double digits. They next host Thomas Nelson on 2/8

5. Doss (16-7)   The Dragons are lead by the strong duo of sr.'s Inslee Carroll (18.7ppg), Tony Moss (16ppg).  They next host Moore on 2/11

6. Butler  (14-10)   I guarantee there isn't a better 10 loss team in the state than Butler. Mershon Dickerson (17.4ppg), Julion Beard (11.8ppg), and Chavez Woods (12.3ppg) lead Butler in scoring.  The Bears play Valley on 2/8.

7. Evangel  (13-8)  WATCH OUT - the Eagles are now full-strength and might be rounding into form (nice win over KY top-20 Woodford Co.).  Guards Christian Spalding (13ppg) and Kyran Tilley (10.1ppg) are pacing Evangel so far, w/ jr. C Cyr Malonga controlling the middle.  The Eagles next host Madison Central on 2/7

8. Southern  (11-9) The Trojans have lost their last 2 games, but played J-town and Doss very tough.  The Trojans are led by sr. G Cam Pfiester (19.1ppg)- who I think is one of the most underrated players in the region- and jr.  Xavier Shobe (12.0ppg).  Next up for the Trojans is a date with Western on 2/8.

9. Fern Creek (8-12)   Sr. Darian Lewis is pacing FC at 16.1ppg, and fellow sr. G Jaden Schooler is at 13.7ppg.  They next host Fairdale on 2/8

10. DeSales (10-10)    The Colts currently have a balanced attack, with 4 players averaging double figures (Carter Bischoff leads team at 16.2ppg)  They next host Fern Creek on 2/9

11. Fairdale (11-12)   So.'s Dalton Hicks(19ppg) and Jacob Tucker (18.7ppg) give Fairdale a solid 1-2 punch.  

12.  Bullitt East  (11-10)  Sr. Tucker Blandford is the leader of BE (15.9ppg)

13. Bullitt Central  (17-7)  Senior Hunter Coleman is leading BC at 22.8ppg. 

14. Beth Haven (18-5) Sr. F Luka Mateski is averaging a team high 24.3ppg (leads the region).  

15. Holy Cross  (11-11) so. F Jacob Hand is leading HC is scoring at 20ppg. 

16. North Bullitt (8-14)

17. Valley (3-20) 

18.  Moore (4-16)

19. Whitefield Academy (6-14)
