Thoughts

-          The King of the Bluegrass didn’t go very well for the 2 5^th Region Teams. Washington County went 1-2 with their only win coming against regional opponent Taylor County. Meanwhile Taylor County went 0-3

-          With Washington County losing and Adair County surprisingly slipping to Glasgow, there are zero undefeated teams left in the region. Had Adair won that game against Glasgow, they would have been the #1 ranked team this week.

-          Larue County wins its own tournament, the Magnolia Bank Holiday Classic. That tournament featured four 5^th Region teams but by most standards was a pretty weak field.  Regardless, it’s a good momentum builder for the Hawks as they head to the White, Greer & Maggard Holiday Classic at Lexington Catholic this week.

-          Campbellsville wins 3 out of 4 games this week to get them in the win column. They are hosting the only games in the region this week with their post-Christmas tournament, The Campbellsville High School Holiday Classic. That tournament will feature, Campbellsville, Edmonson Co, Bardstown, Cumberland Co, Metcalfe Co, Barren Co, Casey Co, & East Jessamine.

-          There was not a lot of movement in the rankings this week and I don’t expect much after this week either, but once the New Year gets here, teams will be playing a lot more region teams and district play will really start taking shape.

-          Merry Christmas!
