Final per the scoreboard. 

Panthers lead from wire to wire in this one and completely dominated the game. They head into the sweet 16 with a recorded of 31-2. They have added another one to the trophy case this year and in the 2021-22 season they have captured a 15th region All "A" title, the All "A" State Championship, the 2022 59th District Championship and now the 2022 15th region championship. They will matchup with a tough North Laurel squad but they have played a schedule that has prepared them for this moment. Laithan Hall showed all tournament he can guard and shut down the opposing teams best player and he said he was ready for the challenge of guarding Shepperd so I think it will be a fun game to watch as a spectator.

It’s also cool to note that Pikeville has Sweet 16 royalty as their head coach, Elisha Justice, who lead his Shelby Valley team to being the 2010 Sweet 16 Champs, who also went on to play at Louisville, and ending this college playing career at Pikeville College before becoming the head coach at Pikeville High School. 

That Shelby Valley team had Jason Booher as their head coach who helped to groom that year’s team from grade school on, and led a core unit of childhood friends to reach their dreams. 

If I’m not mistaken, that Shelby Valley team is the last small school team to have won the Sweet 16. Most small schools are happy to win the All ‘A’ Classic, which they also did that season, but they triumphed, and took all of the marbles with a 32-4 record, and beat a strong Ballard team in the finals 73-61. 

Go Panthers!

You are correct, This was also Elisha's 6th regional title I believe and his 3rd as the coach of Pikeville with the other three as player at Shelby Valley. In that time he has made the Elite 8 twice and won a state title in 2010 as the PG of Shelby Valley.
