I saw South Laurel play in a tournament at SOS(Florence, KY) this past weekend and they looked pretty darn good. They could be a sleeper in this tournament.

 

South Laurel lost to Tates Creek by 20 points last night.

Watch out for Cumberland. They may be a sleeper. They have one of the best players in the state in my opinion. Desmond Johnson 6'6" can do everything. They may get beat, but they will not get outhustled.

 

Cumberland beat Jackson Co. by five, but lost to Elliott Co. by twelve.

Elliot won its first two games.

 

Tates Creek beat South Laurel by 20

 

Boone beat Boyle Co. by 29 and Cordia by 32. They play Knott Central tonight, who beat Boyle by 14 and Cordia by 22.

 

Scott Co. beat St. Patrick 82-29.

 

June Buchanon won their games yesterday.

Scott Co., Elliott Co., Montgomery Co. and Tates Creek all won their pools. Montgomery Co. beat JBS to win their pool.

Boone County also won their pool. They beat Knox Central by 3 or 4. Boone County plays Pineville tomorrow at 6:30 and if they win, they will probably end up playing Scott County at 9.

Finals:

 

Scott Co. over Tates Creek

 

Scoot Co. looks like the team to beat again. Elliot, Boone, Tates Creek, and Montgomery have all played pretty equally well.

Michael Sparks from Tates Creek broke his finger so I don't know if Tates Creek will advance that far without him.

In that case, I'll take Scott Co. over Montgomery Co. in the final. Looks like more of the stronger teams are in Scott's Co. half of the bracket.

Knox Central beats East Jessamine by 30 and advances to play Scott County. Lexington Christian beats Wayne County by 9 and advances to play Mongomery Co.

How did Boone do today in the tourney?

Thanks, keep us updated. That is a quality team and will contend for the 9th region title over the next few years.

Scott Co has to beat Knox Central to get to the Pineville/Boone Co winner.
