Walton is in a conference with Gallatin, Owen, Carroll, Trimble, Williamstown and Henry County. I believe the letters are NCKC.

You are correct as stated in previous posts.

But it is to there benefit to play other NKCA members in order for their players to have a better chance for recognition.

 

Why do you think they play so many 9th Region teams?

 

Madman beat me to it again, but proximity more than anything else. They have a slew of quality ninth region opponents closer than their non-district eighth region opponents.

Waltons schedule was just not very strong a season ago. They obviously have a nice group of talented young ladies, Hopefully they have significantly beefed up their schedule. If not, that could really hurt them come tournament time.

Is it also possible that coach Miller thinks that playing a tough 9th region schedule will better prepare his team to play in the Regional All A and District Tournaments?

Looks a little bit tougher then a season ago. They added some nice teams (Boone, NCC, Scott) and didn't lose very many quality opponents outside of Conner. Coach Miller is hampered somewhat by the All-A and the Conference they play in, but it looks like Walton made an effort to beef up their schedule.

We argued about this whole thing and the only 9th region teams are Boone, NCC, Highlands, and Holmes?:lol:

Sorry sandman and madman, if I would have seen the schedule earlier then I probably would have kepy my trap shut. Especially since (I believe) any NKCA recognitions would have been voted on from the smaller 9th region schools.

Apology accepted. Why would they waste a game on playing a smaller 9th region school? I guess if you are going to play some 9th region teams, play the best.

Don't worry about.

Its "skeery" up there and those little Anderson girls don't want to be "skeered" again.

Don't understand your post. What in the world are you talking about?

Shelby Mullikin is a Freshman and should see some minutes this year. Point Guard is a major concern.

Up and coming player for sure just not ready yet.
