7th Region Week 8 Review & Rankings

**Tigerpride94** · January 23, 2023

Ballard continues to roll along by winning 9 straight since a close loss to a good Lyon County team. Their only other loss was to a good Butler team way back on December 13th. They have an upcoming tough matchup on the road against Male which will be some of the best guards in the region with Ballard's Gabe Sisk & Miles Franklin against Male's Jack Edelen & Cole Edelen. Trinity was upset by Seneca but Seneca is a team that one night can play great and another bad. Also Trinity was playing without Andrae Vasser according to the stat report. Trinity followed up the loss with a win over Christian Academy of Louisville. Saint Xavier has been playing better of late with a close loss to Ballard and beating Male this week and following that up the next day rolling over North Hardin. Male lost to St. X but will get another matchup with them in the district tournament. Male's only region losses are to Ballard, Trinity, and St. X. Manual checks in at #5 with wins over Eastern and Central. Manual is still playing without top player Damone King and will get a boost when he returns.
