10th Region: Week 9

This week, we got part deux of GRC-MoCo, but mostly a light smattering of games as winter weather played havoc on the schedules. The biggest result of the week could be the Brossart/Scott game, as it had major seeding implications. Snow and weather left a lot of teams at home on the couch all week-- this week has everyone playing catch-up. Lots to still shake out.

1.) George Rogers Clark ?||  (16-3)   The only game on the Cardinals' schedule this week was the one they wanted to the most. And they got it. 71-70. A battle in every sense of the word. Beating a team twice is possible, but it’s entirely within the realm of possibility that they will have to beat MoCo 2 more times. The next one is for district, but the big one for a trip to Rupp.

2.) Montgomery County ?|| (10-9)  Austin Sears’ eligibility was much awaited, but he is 0-2 in red white and blue. The GRC loss was close, the Ashland loss can probably be explained away with exhaustion 24 hours after an emotional loss. Curious to see how the older Sears fits in and leads the team forward. Nicholas County is the only team on their schedule this week 

3.) Campbell County ?|| (15-6)  The Camels lost to CovCath, beat Community Christian, and as of this writing haven't yet finalized the game with Highlands. They're playing well. Davie is a force at 23PPG. You can never count out the Camels.

4.) Nicholas County ? || (15-6)  The only game the Bluejackets played this week was against Cellar Dweller Robertson County and they handled business well. This week they’ve got a much tougher slate. Western Hills, a seeding game against Pendleton and then Montgomery County. We’ll learn a few things this week.

5.) Bishop Brossart  ? || (9-9)  Bishop Brossart is in the drivers seat for the 37^th. After defeating the Camels, they have now defeated the Eagles and I believe hold the #1 seed. This week Calvary, Boone, Eminence and St Henry come calling. The Mustangs are peaking down the stretch. Look out!

6.) Bourbon County ?(?1)|| (14-7) The Colonels climbed a spot simply by virtue of not losing any games. They didn’t win any either, but hey— take what you can get. This week they Take on Wolfe County and then two major seeding games with GRC and Paris. Hopefully they rested well this week. 

7.) Calvary Christian  ?(?1)|| (15-6)  2-0 any week is a good week! The Cougars are playing well, and could surprise someone somewhere. Holmes, Brossart, Bellevue and Bracken this week. A 4-0 week is possible, and then we’re staring at almost 20 wins. They last hit that mark in 2022.

8.) Scott ?(?2) || (11-9)  A tough week for the Eagles. A 9 point loss to Brossart immediately followed by a buzzer beater loss to Holmes. The schedule doesn’t get any easier. Holy Cross and St Henry followed by Grant County. Definitely digging deep in Eagle-land. 

9.) Pendleton County ?|| (9-9) No action in Falmouth this week. Robertson County, Campbell County, Nicholas County, Harrison County all on the schedule for this week. We’ll know a whole lot more about the Wildcats come next week. 

10.) Bracken County ?‍❄️ || (11-9) Bracken finds themselves somewhere they have never been: The 1 seed for district. After wins over St Pat and Mason they are the likely top dog. This week RULH Augusta, Fleming, Lloyd and Calvary all want a piece of the glacier. 

11.)  Harrison County ?|| (5-15)  The only result this week for the ‘Breds was a win over Robertson County. Paris and Pendleton this week. Hopefully the rest has refreshed their legs.. 

12.) Paris ? || (2-14)  Things were quiet in Paris this week. No games. Henry Clay, Harrison and Bourbon this week. I see a win coming near the Eiffel Tower. 

13.) St Pat ?||  (7-8) Almost having the 1 seed would have been a story book moment for St Pat. Bracken held on though. This week, Augusta, Robertson and Mason loom large. 

14.) Mason County ?|| (2-14) No one was happier for the weather causing scheduling issues than the Royals. No games last week. This week they see Beechwood, a revenge game at St Pat and then Lloyd. 

15.)  Augusta ?|| (5-11) Ice and Snow do not equate to Panther weather. This week it’s St Pat, Bracken County, Huntington Expression Prep and Holmes. 

16.) Robertson County  ?|| (1-19) Not a fun time to be a Black Devil. Perhaps another W is coming when Williamstown hosts them Friday.
