The other teams are not correct, Boone lost to Lafayette, according to Khsaa and the Lafayette website.

10 to 0 Lex Cath in 5.

LCA is a very good team, there big problem is the district they play in, they finished 5th in the 43rd district this year.

Seven of the top ten teams are from the 7th and 11th regions.

#2 Male lost to #6 Lafayette and #3 Bowling Green: #3 Bowling Green lost to #6 Lafayette and Franklin Co. (others receiving votes): #5 Central Hardin lost to #1 Lex Cath and #7 Eastern.

Unbiased, you need to go back and read my post. I said Trinity SHOULD NOT be in the 25, but at least they play a tough shedule. Cooperstown made some good points in post #8, that I won't repeat but you may want to read again. What other ways should the coaches rate teams? It sounds like you think other teams should be in the top 25, that were left out, Who? Why do they belong? I hope you can back it up, not just because you think they are good. "Good ole boys network" Come on.

I agree that Trinity with a 7-13 record should not be in the top 25 but they have played 9 top 25 teams and 7 of those loses came from top 25 teams. Don't blame the coaches from"down state" for NKY not having ranked teams, blame the NKY coaches for not playing harder schedules. Ryle is one of the few teams that play top 25 teams. (they have 4 loses and only 2 wins) And even the top rated team in NKY, Cov Cath with a 21-1 record, has not played a top 25 team. Thats why they are not rated higher.

The playing surface, (new turf, no dirt at all), Dugouts, restrooms, area around the field including stands, indoor hitting facility, were put in last year. I agree it is sad having to use a temporary metal fence, but considering the right field fence runs along the 30 yard line on the football field, there are not to many other options.

For NCC: Cain 3 innings, Callopy 1, Caudill 1. Lex Cath: Keller 4 2/3, Nauer 1/3. NCC scored their 4 runs in the 5th with 1 hit, 2 walks, 2 errors and 1 wild pitch. A total of 3 hits for the game. Lex Cath had 10 hits, 3 HRs, 3 doubles. 15 to 4 in 5 innings. All 4 runs, both errors and the wild pitch occured with 2 outs in the 5th. Plus Lex Cath never made their 3 outs when the game was called in the 5th.

Lexington Catholic defeats Newport Cenral Catholic 15-4 in 5 innings.

In 1 game, Woodford can beat anyone in the state with Hollon on the mound. But when he is not pitching I'm not sure they can even beat Frankfort, not much chance against the other 8 top 25 teams, in the 11 region.

sorry here is the link: KHSBCA - Kentucky High School Baseball Coaches Association

KHSBCA preseason poll is out, 11th region has 9 teams in the top 25, with Lex Cath at #1.

I didn't see it either, but it sounds like Woodfords great defense had a lot to do with Lex Cath going 5 for 14 from the line.

MC by 18.

Don't the high schools have indoor cages?

I heard Huston outcoached Salsman last night.

This game won't be close, T is way to strong, they have so many weapons on offense, and are even better on defense.

Floyd was sick and so were two top subs.

Central has Cole Metcalf at short, signed with Bellermine and maybe the best Jr. catcher in the state in Jimmy Wright.

GRC by a bunch, to much on the inside.

The problem with Woodford is, if Hollan is not on the mound that they are not very strong, they would have to draw the 2nd place team out 44th (Madison Central would be first)to make it out of the 1st round of the 11th or pitch Hollan ,then lose in the next round. They just dont have enough players to beat the top teams in the 11th. I'd have to go with Lex Cath, return 6 starters from last year, pus a good pitching staff, lead by Zach Haynes, signed with IU. Next would be Bryan Station, Great pitching staff, R Combs signed with UK, M. Bollmer signed with UL, Bollmer is also a very good hitter. After Station, I like Madison Central, they return some very good players from a good team last year.

I know T is a great team, but 14 of 22 starters are D1? Not many KY allstar or allstate(1st and 2nd team) have that, maybe 14 college players. I'd go with the allstar team.

There are very few of us.... I don't see as many Basketball games as I would like. I do see a lot of baseball and football.

The game is Friday at Lex Cath. Who wins and why?
