Getting things rolling in the offseason in the sixth region.

As always, changes will happen between now and the end of summer. 

Coaching Changes: Iroquois (TBD), Louisville Holy Cross (Norman Ellis, elevated from assistant)

Early contenders in the region for 2025-26:

Jeffersontown - Reigning regional champs, the Chargers used the return of Cam McDaniels to help them down the stretch and ultimately knock out 7th region champ and big Sweet 16 favorite St. Xavier in the first round of the state tournament. McDaniels is gone and so is Prince Kahnplaye. But still was some really good underclassmen talent on that roster including leading scorer Dayvonne Harrison (16.8 PPG). Larron Westmoreland and Damere Clark were top five scorers as a sophomore and junior. Moreland was also a top rebounder on the team.

Butler - Kevin Geary has done a really nice job building this Bears program over the past four seasons. The Bears were impressive last season and gave J-Town all they could in the sixth region final. Forward Michale Jones is the biggest loss to graduation as he was the team's leading rebounder (193, 6.2 pg) and second-leading scorer. Adrian Wilder (14.7 PPG), Henrich Barjolo (11.1 PPG) were both juniors and top three scorers with Wilder leading the squad. Both were solid from behind the arc as well. Should be a lot of talent, some experienced and som not so much, returning for the Bears.

Fairdale - In year one of the Michael Stinnett era, the Bulldogs were very young with three of their top scorers, as well as two of their top rebounders being sophomores. That included Ferlandas Wright who averaged 18 per game and put up over 500 points while shooting 60% on the year. Classmate Michael Ray Stinnett, coach's son, was 43% from downtown. How much can the Bulldogs progress next season?

PRP - The Panthers fell 42-43 to Butler in the sixth region semifinals. Will be a younger team in 25-26 with seven seniors graduating after last year. Neyco Jenkins was very good as a sophomore and could be a leader and the face of PRP next year.

 

Bump.

BGP is looking for someone for the 6th:

Some movement of players from the 7th to the 6th.

JD Flippens from Manual to Fern Creek

Johnny MacFarland from Eastern to Fern Creek.

Should put FC near or at the top of the 6th RIGHT NOW but there is more movement on the horizon!
