Drakeford started for Mercer as a freshman as their PG.   Driver and Drakeford are the only two players on Boyle's team that have ever scored a point in the region tourney.    45th is really down with Lincoln under 500 for the year and Boyle barely over 500.  I think DCA is the favorite but wouldn't surprise me if Lincoln, Boyle or even Danville as a Darkhorse to win it.  Lincoln has the best guard in Baird, Reed at Danville might be next best guard.  DCA has best overall player in the district with Ateny with Driver being the next overall best player. 

Don't sleep on the Golden Lions. Looked like the 2nd best team in the district the last month of the season!

I believe in the 48th, it's the team that won head to head in the last meeting. That would put Somerset Christian as the 4 seed no matter what happens between Wayne and McCreary tonight.

 

Then yes, I think we can safely say West Jessamine and Wayne County will make the regional tournament. Everyone else is a toss up.

Garrard could 100% beat Boyle and be playing in the district championship.  They play hard and have good coaching.

Boyle knocked off Collins tonight down Driver, Akers, and Webb. Good game for some other guys to get some PT. Drakeford looked good. Need him to give them a spark come district. 

I agree that Drakeford could really help Boyle in the tourney. If they will keep Driver inside and let him do what he does best, defend and get on the boards. Boyle can beat anyone in district and region on a given night. They also can lose to the same. Need to get everyone well now.

Lincoln plays the toughest schedule in the 12th Region.

DCA played a way tougher schedule.

Plus Lincoln is still the 4 seed in a down 45th district.

I guess I can agree the 45th is slightly down. DCA is probably just slightly down from last year's DCA team; Lincoln and Boyle both took a step back; but Danville and Garrard County are a step forward from last year.

I would agree with GC but Danville has cooled big time since their hot start imo.

Do we have a bracket for the 45th yet with dates and times? It is going to be a fun one ?! 

The meeting was today. I know Danville plays Lincoln and Garrard plays KSD on Monday, then both boys semifinals are on Wednesday and the final is Friday.

Massey strength of schedule:  Lincoln - 41,   DCA - 44,  Wayne - 54,   PC - 62
 

So no they haven’t played a tougher schedule??‍♀️

I don't consider a district being down if the traditional powers aren't performing up to previous years and other teams are having success. You have to give some of those other teams credit. That's also the fun of public schooling.

Every team is below or right at 500 other than DCA. They are all the same team and below average. GC is 11-17. Yes, they are playing better, but that’s still 6 games under 500. Same thing with Danville and Lincoln. If that’s not down idk what is ?‍♂️.

Massey ?‍♂️.

McCreary led Wayne most of the game last night and honestly deserved the win. Wayne ended up pulling it out by 4 points or so. Wade Davis gets every ounce of ability out of his guys and I'm not sure how they haven't won more games this season. I'm not sure Wayne would be able to beat them a 3rd time if they were to meet in the district championship at McCreary.

As a Wayne fan, I wish I were as confident as se7ens but this could be a year where a team like Wayne gets upset in the first round of district and it wouldn't be that crazy. 

Pulaski hammered Lincoln last night.  The 47th is consistently underrated every year, and has 3 of the top 5 teams in the region right now.
