12th region is wild

[region12hoops]

About two weeks ago I did some research on the records of what I thought were the top 7 teams in the 12th, Lincoln, McCreary, Somerset, Wayne, W Jess, Boyle and Mercer. At the time each of the seven teams had beaten at least one of the other teams in the top seven and the top seven had only lost region games to other teams within that group with the exception of Somerset losing to Casey. Since that time though McCreary, W Jessamine, Boyle (twice), Somerset and Mercer have all lost region games to teams other than my top seven teams and Wayne and McCreary were both nearly beaten by 3 win Southwestern.

I was pretty confident that those seven teams would have made the region tournament, now I would say Lincoln is the only pretty sure bet and they're not as solid as they were at the time since they also lost during this time frame. By the way the other teams to beat a top seven team are Casey, E Jessamine, Rockcastle, Burgin, Garrard and Pulaski.

This 12th region is crazy just last night East beat West at West. On any given night anybody can beat anybody in the 12th.

The 12th and 8th Regions seem to be the wildest to predict. By the way they play each other in the first round of the state tournament, so should be a wild game in keeping with the tradition.

You are correct.
