My thoughts. FYI I've seen 14 of these 20 teams play. I have only not seen Ryle, Newport, Dayton, Villa, HA and Cov Latin so hard to judge those teams but going off what I read and how they have fared against others. On any given night these rankings can go right in the can. Anyone in the top 10 can beat anyone on the right night.

Didn't Covcath just lose to Holmes? Trying to figure out how anyone could have a poll with CCH ahead of the Dogs.

 

One thing is for sure...the 35th is brutal with 3 of the top 5 best teams in the region.

1. Dixie

2. HC

3. Holmes

4. Cov Cath

5. Boone

6. NCC

1. Dixie

2. HC

3. Holmes

4. Cov Cath

5. Boone

6. NCC

 

I can't put Boone in front of NC. CCH/NC on Friday will be fun.

I agree I overlooked that game from last night....5. NCC 6. Boone

I'll take CC on Friday night in Park Hills.

When is the last time the 9th was this wide open?

Top 6 are solid as can be....I don't think anyone outside the top 6 can win 3 games in the regional IMO.

 

Which 2 teams make it out of the 35th will be the question. We'll get a better idea after tonight.

 

Also, HC Internet Radio can't be accessed from Macs or Ipads from what I am hearing. Something with the EZstream site we use.

When is the last time the 9th was this wide open?

 

2003 maybe?

 

Ryle had Doellman.

Boone had McFarland, Laboiteaux, and Rasso.

St Henry had Vieth, Smith, Fabiani, and Otte.

Simon Kenton had Brock, Stowers, Kennedy, and Kannady.

Highlands had Neltner, Guidugli, Gilles.

Holmes had Fischer, Englemon, Brandon Smith.

Covcath had Nestheide, Votel boys, and Muck.

Dixie had Bramlage boys, O'Toole boys, DJ Corbett, and 7' Mays coming off bench.

Holy Cross was even a tough out with Bibbins, Stevie, and Steenken.

 

By far the deepest and most wide open the region has ever been that i can remember. A lot of talent on those teams that weren't even mentioned because of only being sophomores.

 

St Henry, Dixie, SK and Highlands were all 4 in the top 25 in the state together at one point that year.

1. Holy Cross

2. Holmes

3. Cov. Cath

4. Dixie

5. NCC

6. Boone

7. St. Henry

8. Ryle

9. Cooper

10. Conner

When is the last time the 9th was this wide open?

I don't think it is wide open until Dixie loses a game to a 9th region team.

1. Dixie

2. Holy Cross

3. Holmes, CovCath, NewCath, Boone

 

Kind of a cop out I know but that's how I feel after seeing all of the teams play. Too bad they all can't get to the Regional tournament.

1. Dixie

2. Holy Cross

3. Holmes

4. NCC

5. Boone Co

6. CovCath

7. St. Henry

8. Ryle
