Four of the six (Apollo, Boone Co., North Laurel, and Johnson Central) to qualify for the Sweet 16 lost the finals of their district. Wonder if that is the most for one state tournament field?

With Rowan County now in, anyone who was in attendance last year should be aware of their tandem. Adam Wing (Evansville signee) is a forward who caught fire from 3 on Saturday morning. His teammate D.J. Townsend is a quick guard who can score and distribute.

 

Haven't gotten to see Rowan County this year, but from watching them last year, I would think that they are going to miss their other guard from last year more than people may realize. He was the Senior starter in 2011 whose name is escaping me at the moment; I'm thinking he wore #32 or #11.

I was looking at the Sweet 16 contest for this year. With 6 regions determined, it looks like the best score thus far is 3 out of 6 (33 participants total). Those five are:

Several of us have 2 out of 6. A smattering of others have 1. And I saw one or two that had 0. I didn't see anyone who had picked Apollo, Boone County or North Laurel to win their regional. I was wondering how I was doing in the contest & thought I'd check on everyone else too. These are by no means official & are subject to error. I just wanted to give a little update. I couldn't bring it to the top, so here's a link to the picks:

Only 6 have been decided thus far. I have 2 out of 6 and of the 10 championships tonight, I have a chance to hit 7 more, but I'm betting against hitting all 7.

I took a very quick and very unofficial look at it and it looks like TRUEXFAN211 is leading the way with 3 so far.
