:thumb::clap:This was a very nice holiday tournament. The Rowan Co Vikings were very happy to be there. Good competetion and a great facility. The Vikings gained a lot of good experience that will help them down the road. Nice job by Montgomery Co to host this Holiday Classic.

Montgomery Co. does a great job hosting this tournament. Unbelieveable facility for a high school and very nicely run!

[IMOM]

Very nice. Can't wait for the region to return.

Very nice. Can't wait for the region to return.

 

All of the other Regional schools can't either so they can make about half as they made last year. It was a nice place for a Holiday tournament due to crowd size but not for the regional tourney.

Wow. That was almost a compliment from Sumo. Almost.

They may hold the 16th region tournament there next year since that is likely the region they will be in, but then again they will have to compete with Morehead State University(don't they have the 16th regions tournament there now?). Sounds like wasted tax dollars if only reason facility was built was to hold regional tournaments

Morehead is a perfect venue for a regional tournament. Wish there were a university in the middle of the 10th. Neutral floor and plenty of parking and seating. No home team hosting to sit on the wrong bench and visiting teams having to sit in front of the home team's student section. All those issues are erased in a true neutral site.

I will be surprised if Montgomery really goes to the 11th though.

16th region and agree on what you said, but really don't think Montgomery and Clark will have to worry about where the 10th region is held after this year as they both will be elsewhere(other regions, Clark 11th,Montgomery 16th)

[Radioboy74]

Don't believe 16th region will ever leave MSU. Montgomery will have a hard time hosting a region if they leave the 10th and go to the 16th.
