Friday qtrs in afternoon possible:

Clark Co vs. Ballard/Eastern/etc

Christian Co vs. Catholic/Scott/Creek/etc

My initial thoughts:

 

The 2nd finally catches a break and gets a good first round draw after some tough luck in recent years.

 

Bottom bracket could be ran through by the 6th Region.

 

16th vs. 3rd on Thursday morning at noon could be an intriguing match-up with the possibility of seeing Rowan Co. vs. Muhlenburg Co. in a competitive game.

 

The 4th vs. the 7th should have the most talent of any first round game.

Friday qtrs in afternoon possible:

Clark Co vs. Ballard/Eastern/etc

Christian Co vs. Catholic/Scott/Creek/etc

 

Mason Co as well.

I was praying that the 7th and 11 would end up on opposite sides of the bracket. It looks like that is not the case.

Pretty tough draw for the 4th region (Bowling Green/Warren East).

15 of the top 20 in current LIT ratings are in the top half. 4 of the other 5 are all out of the 6th region in the bottom.

11th region, 7th Region, and 10th Region (probably Clark County) all on the same half of the bracket? Geeze.

6th region has to be licking their chops...

11th region, 7th Region, and 10th Region (probably Clark County) all on the same half of the bracket? Geeze.

 

Gotta play 'em sometime.

Usually one half of the bracket is stronger than the other, maybe gives an underdog a chance to get to Saturday and then as we all know, anything goes.
