PLAYERS

1. Matt Day - Buckhorn

2. Zack Davis - Knott Co. Central

3. Dillion Cornett - Perry Co. Central

4. Jordan Olinger - Hazard

5. Hobert Asher - Leslie County

6. Mikey Slone - Knott Co. Central

7. B.J. Combs - Hazard

8. Carlisle Creech - Powell County

9. Koree Stewart - Letcher Co. Central

10. Dontarius Pittman - Lee County

Lee County has about eight sophomores that are ready to play, plus Pittman. I really think they are going to surprise some teams.

I would think Lee had to be at number 11 right behind Estill Co. You could probably flip flop them becuase they are about even.

I think Knott should be number one. They have a lot of expierenced players. Dont' know much about the new coach, is he a first year head coach? Is he right out of college? Any info? I think Hazard and Perry will be right in the mix too. Maybe LCC if they come together better than last year.

Rule #13

BB King. Longtime assistant under Jim Rose at KCC in the early 90's. Last 5 years helped at Letcher County Central. Played college basketball at Alice LLoyd college in the early 80's.

Hazard is legit #1

Perry, Knott, Letcher will have to play it out for the next 3 spots

-Knott has Davis to get back healthy from knee surgery which is always hard to come back from, good luck to him and to new Coach King

 

-Letcher has a lot returning and Hammonds is a good coach that started to bring them together at the end of last year, look for them to really make some noise in the 14th this year

 

-Perry definitely has the size with the Cornett brothers and Sizemore, but do they have a guard to bring it up the floor and get it to them inside? that is the question Coach Hatcher will have to answer. What if teams press or run on them, can they keep up? don't know if they have the guards to overcome some up tempo teams.

 

Wolfe and Buckhorn are a little distance away from these 4, but could knock someone off on a given night. Wolfe is young still but has a lot of players that played a lot last year as freshman. Buckhorn has Day but needs some help from their sharp shooting guards they always seem to have, if they have them come through, they could be tough down the stretch.

 

Don't see anyone else beathing any of these teams. The 56th will be a tough battle, but whoever draws them in the tourney will be very happy with that outcome.

O wow sure is getting a late start to a head coaching career. Hopefully he can learn on the job quick because they have a lot of talent.

Heard Wolfe County lost one of their best players in the 6'1 Trenton Gilbert to a transfer to Scott County. He was a starter last year at guard who averaged 18 ppg, and though only an 8th grader was one of their best players. If he indeed did transfer that will definitely hurt their cause quite a bit. I'm pretty sure these rankings were based on him still being in the lineup.
