sports fan Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 With 5 of the top 16 (and 3 of the top 7) Lit rated teams in the 7th region, is it a stretch to say that winning the 7th region might be a more difficult/grueling proposition than winning the state tournament? Let me also add that I am not a proponent of the Lit ratings, nor am I trying to say that Jefferson Co. has better teams year in and year out than regions out in the state. But with Ballard, Male & J'Town (and Trinity & Eastern), there may be an arguement here in 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rojas4 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 The 7th and the 11th could both very well be tougher than the Sweet 16. Especially if you take into consideration some of the tougher districts in these regions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two regions will be a battle getting out of. That's one of the reasons tournament time excites me so much. Upsets can happen anywhere, you never know what might happen, especially in the two regions mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
