BlueKrush Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Rank School 1 Assumption 2 Sacred Heart 3 Mercy 4 Holy Cross (Louisville) 5 DuPont Manual 6 Henry Clay 7 Notre Dame 8 Ryle 9 Louisville Male 10 Holy Cross (Covington) 11 Oldham County 12 St. Henry 13 Newport Central Catholic 14 North Oldham 15 Greenwood 16 Lafayette 17 Tates Creek 18 South Oldham 19 Lone Oak 20 Central Hardin 21 Eastern 22 Presentation 23 Butler 24 Christian Academy-Louisville 25 Apollo Holy Cross (Covington) ahead of both NCC and St. Henry? NDA 7th behind Henry Clay, DuPont, and the other Holy Cross. I knew the referees were blind, but apparently the coaches are also!
BlueKrush Posted October 6, 2011 Author Posted October 6, 2011 And one more thing - how does NDA finish 1st in the Region 9 poll, St. Henry 2nd, Holy Cross 4TH, but HC is ahead of both of them in the state poll? Same poll from the same people. Someone please explain that to me. Rank Region 9 1 Notre Dame 2 St. Henry 3 Ryle 4 Holy Cross (Covington) 5 Simon Kenton
bredwinner Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Most coaches don't take the time to check out who they are voting for. They sometimes vote for teams that they saw play one time at a tournament and thought they were good. Others have no clue of what is outside their own regions. This list is a jumbled mess!

Same poll from the same people. Someone please explain that to me. Rank Region 9 1 Notre Dame 2 St. Henry 3 Ryle 4 Holy Cross (Covington) 5 Simon Kenton The only thing I can figure is that the coaches are basing their votes on team records and Holy Cross is 26-4 and the fact that Holy Cross won the All A state tournament, maybe more coaches got to see them play. I agree they should definitely not be in front of St. Henry or NCC. St. Henry and NCC should be in front of Ryle too and ND should be higher. Poll is definitely messed up.

And NCC beat Ryle last night at Ryle. There's another one. And to TheOldGuy - clear your message inbox so I can respond to you message.
