16thBBall Fan Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 This is premier matchup of the first round and I think many would say this could be the championship game being played on Thursday evening. I'm sure Cooper and Pikeville might disagree in I feel the loaded bottom half of the bracket. GRC comes into the game at (30-4) RPI .68358 take on the juggerknot that is Sacred Heart (27-7) RPI .65057. The Valkyries have 7 loses but have yet to lose to a Kentucky opponent this season and have not lost to a KY team since Feb. of 2022. They will be going for the 4th consecutive state title. The Lady Cardinals are a very good team but I just don't see anyone beating the Valkyries unless they have an off night. These two teams played around a month ago on a neutral court and Sacred Heart won by 12 at 61-49. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say with the talent they have quite well. Coach Graham at GRC does a great job.....does he have enough horses to knock off SHA? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I was amazed checking earlier this morning that they have not lost to an instate opponent since Feb. 2022. They are the Trinity of girls basketball. I watched them play Frederick Douglass girls last month. I think they will have to have an off night for someone to defeat them. Hey that is why they play the games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the NFHS Network is about 5 minutes real time behind. I have it on mute to watch but am getting the live play-by-play off the live stats from the KHSAA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
