Kind of forgot about that but yes I do remember that now.

All 9th Region Boys games can be heard on The (859) Sports Radio!

I feel like all the drama is all going to come from the opposite side of CCH's bracket as to who can claim runner up.

Runner up?  I would hope the other seven teams are not shooting for runner up.

Right!! But then again I’m sure there were similar comments last year as well. I’m sure, internally, CCH isn’t taking any team for granted and blocking out all the noise, or as Saban calls it, rat poison, from the outside. All the talk of it would take an “All-Star” team to beat any team is kinda funny to me. Are they the favorite, absolutely, can anything happen, absolutely. It’s kinda why they play the game.

The difference is last season St. Henry beat them during the regular season and Highlands had a great team who played them decently during the regular season.  This season the 9th Region teams that had the guts to play Cov Cath not only didn't win but their closest game was 20 points to Conner.  Can anything happen in the tournament?  Absolutely, but it would be an upset on par with UMBC over Virginia in the NCAA Tournament.

I hear you, but I have never seem such a one team lopsided region. The coaches will have them focused.

Who is good in the 10th and the prohibitive favorite? Surely not Campbell County.

I don't think it was a "guts thing".  i just think they were attempting to call them out.  For me, i wont opine on that decision but am a little impressed for taking the stand.  My stand is to play them 10 times a year - but the teams I like have to.

My gosh, you don't know who the #1 team in the commonwealth is, as well as the only undefeated team?

The answer is George Rogers Clark.
