You didn't double Mercy and Sacred Heart, right?  Since they are single-sex institutions.  

Side-note:  I thought Mercer County was bigger than it was.

 

Feels like there are legitimately 3 teams that could win the whole thing, maybe 4, beyond that, I think it would take something very interesting to have occurred.

1.  Sacred Heat

2.  Cooper (plays Mercy in the first round)

3.  Mercy (plays Cooper in the first round)

------

4.  GRC

I expect the Final 4 will be:  SHA vs GRC and McCracken County vs Cooper / Mercy.

Hope they get great crowds all week, the girls from across the state who have earned their way here deserve that!!!

No doubling. Football classification style count.

Mercer is 3A in football which is based on number of males in school.  Are these figures just number of females in the high school?

Yes.

Thanks for posting I am glad you showed female enrollment only.  It is definitely interesting. 

So happy for my Lady Dawgs to make it to Rupp!  However, they have the worst possible draw, but they will NOT go down without a fight!

? Haven't we met before?

✅ Four first round games feature pairings of teams who've played previously this season. 

❓ Any thoughts on reversals of fortune?

I follow the 9th most closely. I respect Mercy, but I think our Lady Jaguars will represent us well in a win.
