Record and ability-wise?

16th-Bath Co. hands down

In the 12th Region it would have to be Wayne County. Last season they were 14-18, this season they are 19-9 and are probably playing the best basketball in the region.

PCC, no doubt.

Possibly Campbell. Going from I dont know how many consecutive losing seasons to a team thats very tough to beat is a big turnaround.

In the 7th probably Waggener.

10th- Calvary Christian, Bourbon County, and Campbell County

In the 14th:

 

Perry County Central on the positive side. Turned around about 1 month ago. I think they had won maybe 4 games. Now have won 6 of their last 8 games including wins over JBS and Knott Central.

 

JBS on the negative side. Took a dive in the first round of the All A Classic. Have not recovered since. Were once a top 10 team in the state, now are not a strong bet to get out of their own district, much less the 14th Region.

It's actually Russell, but they turned the wrong way.

I think the 9th region as a whole is stronger this year than last. Last year, Covcath was the only team to finish with single digit losses. This year there are 5 teams who currently have single digit losses and will most likely finish the season that way. Here is a look at last year compared to this year:

 

Highlands- 10-19 last year, 17-8 this year

Holmes- 25-10 last year, 25-2 this year

Boone Co- 18-12 last year, 21-6 this year

Beechwood- 17-12 last year, 18-8 this year (undefeated in conference play for first time ever)

 

CCH (18-7) and Newcath (15-9) also have single digit losses this year as well.

 

Other nice surprises:

 

Villa Madonna who was 5-19 last year is 14-11 this year and most likely going to make their first ever region tournament appearance.

 

Also Ludlow, although not a major improvement was 6-21 last year and is currently 9-12.
