Master of the Hardwood Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Just thought I would get started a couple weeks early. Here are my picks on who will make the Regional tourney and how it could be drawn out. 53rd #4 Seed Letcher upsets JBS #2 Seed Knott beats #3 Cordia Letcher/Knott rematch in the finals with Letcher being the winner of the district. Letcher has had JBS down both games they played by 10+ late in the game and blew the lead both times, but I think the 3rd time will be the charm. Also the Cordia/Knott game next week could have some impact on how the seeding may change. If Cordia wins, I think them and Knott still stay #2 and #3, but if Knott wins it may move Letcher up to #3 and put Cordia to #4. That would change things a lot. Then I would have to say JBS/Letcher out of this District. 54th Perry Central/Hazard with Hazard being the winner of the district Perry will play Leslie and Hazard will play Buckhorn, should be 2 good games, but the Commodores and Bulldogs will play in the region for this district. 55th Breathitt draws Wolfe, again 2 best teams playing first round. Jackson city plays Riverside. Wolfe as the winner and Jackson city as loser in this district 56th Estill/Powell should go to the region with Estill being the winner Estill will play Owsley as the #1 and #4 seeds and Powell and Lee will play as the #3 and #2 teams. Since this district is at Powell, I'm going with the upset in this one. Both the games they have played this year were buzzer beaters and each won on their home floors, giving the advanatage to the Pirates. Lee also does not play very well away from home. Regional tourney possible draw for first round Hazard-winner 54th Powell-Loser 56th Letcher-winner 53rd Jackson City-Loser 55th Estill- winner 56th Perry- Loser 54th Wolfe-winner 55th Knott-Loser 53rd Possible semi's Hazard/Letcher Perry/Knott Possible finals Hazard/Knott Heck of a lot of tournament possiblilities, this is just one of them! Never know what will happen during tournament time. Good luck to all teams in the region and good luck in your districts.
trent2224 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I wouldnt be so quick to count out JBS. You have to remember they are bringing back the same team they cut the nets down with last year. No excuse for the loss to PCC, but this gives them the opportunity to get refocused. My Theory on the 14th region tourney 53rd JBS rolls by Cordia Knott beats Letcher in a close one. 54th Hazard and Perry Central Hazard may need to lose a game before the region starts or they may go in overconfident. 55th Wolfe and Jackson City 56th Estill and Lee 1st round region tourney Wolfe(winner 55th) vs Lee (loser 56th) Wolfe wins in a close one. JBS (winner 53rd) vs Perry(loser 54th) JBS gets their revenge and wins big. Hazard(winner 54th) vs Jackson City(loser 55th) Hazard rolls!! Estill (winner 56th) vs Knott (loser 53rd) Knott wins a close one! Semis - Region JBS vs Wolfe JBS Rolls past them. Hazard vs Knott Knott wins a close one and the favorite goes down. This is the game Hazard needed to lose before the region started. They came in way too confident and Knott sent them packing. Finals JBS vs Knott ALL county matchup. JBS cuts the nets down in a much closer game than expected. JBS 67 - 63. 1st round state tourney JBS rolls by Pineville 2nd round state tourney JBS wins a close one against Anderson Co Semis state tourney JBS avenges an early season loss and knocks off one of the favorites Mason Co 68-65 State Finals JBS loses a tough game to a very talented and smart team in Lexington Catholic 63-69. I told you not to count JBS out!!!!
trent2224 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Just a thought! Remember what Buckhorn did to PCC last year 1st game of the districts!!!
3 Point Play Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 53- JBS and Knott 54- Hazard and Perry 55- Breathitt and Jackson 56- Estill and Lee
