All I can say is the boys at Ashland are working hard and will continue to work. I honestly believe that with hard work, comes reward. I know the most talented team usually wins, but I can't count my boys out. Don't put those parachutes on our backs just yet. I believe we are still in the plane.

did not realize losing in the region semi's this year and regin finals the year before meant a freefall to teh bottom of the region. Lots of other teams would like to have that fall.

 

Are they not losing their best two players of a team that had a very subpar season?

I'll give it a shot (of course there is still alot to be determined with new coaches/players, etc.):

 

1. Elliott

2. East Carter

3. Bath County

4. Fairview

5. West Carter

6. Ashland

7. Raceland

8. Morgan Co.

9. Boyd Co.

10. Rowan Co.

11. Lewis County

12. Greenup Co.

13. Fleming Co.

14. Russell

15. Rose Hill

16. Menifee Co.

I think Rose Hill and Greenup will be top ten. I don't know about West Carter being that high. They lose alot. I know the freshman player was really good, but I don't remember any support.

1. Elliott Co

2. Everyone else.

 

I had Rose Hill at 2 a few days ago but with Euton moving there are way back now.

I wasn't sure what West Carter had coming back. I would probably drop them a few spots if that is the case. If Jackson leaves Rose Hill as well, they will be in trouble next season.

Providing everyone stays put.:sssh:

 

That is the key, providing everyone stays put. Euton has already annouced he will be gone, most of expect Jackson to follow, and who knows if all is well in Sandy Hook so it's way to early to be picking for next year.

Plenty of time to change!

Elliott CO

Fairview

Elliott Co. is the obvious #1 pick for preseason. I think that Bath has atleast 3 of the starters back and East will return alot of players. Rose Hill won't be as bad as some think. Granted losing 2 D1 players will make the coaches make some adjustments but I think that Rose Hill should be in the top ten.

West probably isn't top 5 preseason. Returning they have Matt Logan, BA Oney, Taylor Webb, Ace Puckett and Aaron Rayburn all which have started a few games over the course of their careers. They need a consistent go to player to step up from this bunch. It will probably be Rayburn, but his role will change next year after being the 3rd or 4th option this year for the Comets. He hit some nice shots this year, but will have to create more next season as well. Thats it as far as considerable varsity experience. Not a horrible starting 5, but eventually you do have to sub. Unproven players will have to step up if West is to repeat this years successful season.

 

As of today preseason top 5

1. Elliott

2. East

3. Fairview

4. Bath

5. Raceland

 

I would also say Rose Hill won't be the 2nd worst team in the region. They won't be contenders but they won't be horrible either. 16th will be very down next year.

You have Rose Hill basically at the bottom of the barrell??:confused: You have got to be kidding me!!!!:mad: I know that Euton is leaving and maybe Jackson. But they weren't the only players on the team, remember??? :irked: They have got some some mighty fine players on that team plus they have kids up and coming this next season, so you and some others just might be in for a few surprises!!!!

1. Its just my opinion

2. Euton is gone and I'm pretty sure that Jackson won't be far behind

3. Who else does Rose Hill have on their team that can replace those two and their numbers? I have heard of an 8th grader that is going to be a good one, but he won't make that big of a difference next season. I do hope they can remain competitive, but its not going to be easy.
