Ok, maybe this is a silly/bad question, but maybe it's not. I want to know which region has gone the longest without producing a state champion. That may not be too difficult, so I have another question. Let's see if we can name the last Class A, AA, AAA, and AAAA from each region. I know, I know, it may be a bit tedious, but I guarantee that someone will have/find the answers and I'd also say that they'll surprise us. Besides, this will get everyone's mind off of the games that are a little over 24 hours away.

Class 4A

1 ... Nelson County, 1996

So Class A Region 4 has the longest drought followed by Classes AAA, and AAAA from Region 4. Looks like we need to get better in these three classes.

Thanks westsider for the information. I knew it wouldn't be too long before we got an answer.

So in other words, Region 4 in almost every case, then Region 1. Which is a surprise to none.

Region 3 AA isn't represented too well as that one came from Boyle Co who went on to win three consecutive AAA titles.

That ALONE is a worthy enough reason to start this thread! :thumb:

They may change this year

Bourbon County won in 1997, but they're 3A now, too. Then you have Danville's run before that.

 

The geography has changed since then. The only teams in the current Region 3 with state titles are, the best I can tell, are Russell and Lloyd ... both of those were in 3A, and both were in the 1970s.

I guess I should have stated the last time the ones currently in the regions and their current class. Still some interesting information I think.

Middlesboro from Class A Region 4 in 1998

Lloyd has an A Title in the 60's as well...

Thats what I was thinking.

I thought that Middlesboro was AA in 98, but I guess that I was wrong

In westsider's defense... region 4 is the weakest link in his very substantial football knowledge base...

 

Middlesboro was the last Region 4 1A Champion. :thumb:

I stand corrected ... :lol:

 

Looking at the list, I just skipped over Middlesboro. Must be my anti-mountain, anti-Bell County bias. :lol:

 

Honestly, I should have remembered ... I was there, and it was ugly for Mayfield that day.
