Clark county manages to slip into the top 16, despite that crazy loss to Rowan?

Those rarings look good to me!:dancingpa

[HOMELESS CAMEL]

Bryan Station hasn't lost a game in forever, #'s 2-4 you could arrange in any order and likely offend someone, so I don't mind that.

 

I continue to have a big problem with Elliott being that high, BUT they will get their chance in Richmond to serve me some crow.

 

Aside from that, looks good to me. :thumb:

Shelby Valley was as high as 11th. They won a couple of games by only ten points or so and have fallen all the way out of the top 25 without losing.

That makes alot of sense :confused:

Way to go DeSales!

They also beat 2 teams in the top 12 & only lost to another J'town by just a few. Very difficult to understand.

IMO Shellby Valley should still be in th top 15 in the state.

They didn't slip in...they were ranked last week before the loss, and to be honest I was shocked. I love the Cards but really feel that we are not a #16 ranked team at this point. Last year we couldn't get a ranking and I knew that we were as good and better than many that were ranked. I don't put alot into rankings....but it does give us something to talk about.

Thanks for posting these Gold :thumb:. I am glad to see Elliot Co. out of the 16th get some recognition like this. A tiny school like Elliot playing like they are imo is what Ky. High School Basketball is all about.

I agree about Elliott how many top 25 teams have they played and what is there record against them?

Manual beat 3 top 20 teams in less than 3 days and yet are ranked 5th in the 7th region alone after winning the LIT title. And now will face two more top 15 teams in their next three games. Wow!

As far as I can tell one (CovCath), and they lost by 14, but as many of the Elliott faithful will tell you (trust me on this), it was their third game in three days and it was only CovCath second game in two days. Elliott County is a good team, a top 15 team, but IMO not anywhere near the fifth best team in the state.
