Top Half

East Carter (??, 19-6) vs. Ashland (??, 9-25) at 7:00pm

Boyd County's body of work installs them as the favorite, perhaps a prohibitive one. Raceland, Rowan County, and East Carter will pose various challenges for the Lions. Raceland has won two of the last three region titles, Rowan is a perennial contender, and East is responsible for one of Boyd's three losses.
