3 of the top 25 teams in the nation will be in London at South Laurel starting Thursday night for the 1st Annual Bill Keightly Laurel County Hoopfest. Also, some of the top teams in Kentucky will be playing in this tournament.

 

Oak Hill Academy, Findlay Prep and Christ School are all ranked in the USA Today Super 25 Poll.

I believe I saw that FOX 19 is showing the games live on TV, or at least the Holmes game and one more.:confused:

Holmes should take care of Largo. Unless Largo got some transfers in, they lost their two best players from last year. Corbin gave them all they wanted up at Lexington Catholic.

They return two good players from last year's team in 6'4 Martin and 6'5 Thomas. Both are considered D1 prospects.

Do you think you can buy tickects there, or do you have to buy them ahead of time?

Tickets can be purchased at the gate.

You can buy a pass for the entire Hoopfest or pay per day at the door. The girls games are Thursday night and boys games are Friday & Saturday. I think there are 9 games on Saturday and I think 4 on Friday.
