Notes:

Jeffersonville is first indiana team to play

6'9 Brandon Moore from New Orleans has scholarship offers from both UK & UL

6'7 Soph Noel Johnson from Fayette Co. is being recruited by both UK & UL

Seems like a pretty solid lineup to me.

That's surprising that they've never had an Indiana team.

Everyone has been saying that the 8th Region is weak. 2 of the top teams in the 8th are going to see what they are made of!

It will be interesting to have the first Indiana team in this tourney. One question is who will their coach be, and will they play against their former coach???

UHA looks a little out of place.

I could be wrong on this but I think that the high school athletic association in Indiana will only allow teams to play 20 regular season games. With that said, the KOB would take up 4 out of the 20 games that are allowed.

20 games doesn't seem like many when you start looking at tournaments. That is not enough games. I like it that Kentucky allows teams 21 games plus two tournaments (up to 4 games in each tourney).

You are correct and some states, like OH and WV, I believe even also limit to 80 quarters of play.

 

Thus, why it's hard to get out of state, adjacent schools to play in Tournaments, since each goes toward their limit.
