Letcher Central, Paris High School, and Shelby Valley Tri-Scrimmage

[Deep 3 pointer]

Any reports from our defending state champs scrimmage? These three teams played each other today in Whitesburg. Any news?

Here is what I found out from the infamous Puck (stat man) at Paris. Shelby Valley was down obviously from last year. They did have a 6'10" Freshman that is a big presence. Score was wiped after every 10 minutes. Letcher Central beat Shelby Valley every quarter. Paris and Shelby Valley tied two of the three segments they played.

 

Letcher Central is very big and athletic. They returned everything. Johnson and Ballou are very strong, athletic players. They will win a lot of games this year. They were better than Shelby Valley, but lost to Paris in all segments except one.

 

They said Paris was the biggest surprise. I hope this is true. It's been a while. They have two very good players in Jacobs and Stanley. I've had more than one person tell me that Jacobs is the most underrated player in the state. He's about 6'7" and I do know that he made the All-Star team at Blue Chip camp as a sophomore.

 

Hope this helps.
