Cash-Money

Hall led JC with 17 Rowe led Pikeville with 21

Troutman and Willis' chances just takes a hit. PRP just beat BE. They might not be a finalist make the Sweet 16?

WOW!! 2 MR.BASKETBALL FINALIST and get beat out?

At that rate the ball must be FLAT!! LOL

Wondering who you all think?

2 for 2 after night one!

Johnson Central overPrestonsburg Pikeville over Pike Central Sheldon Clark over Betsy Layne Belfry over East Ridge Pikeville over Johnson Central Sheldon Clark over Belfry Pikeville advances to Rupp!

The favorite has to be Johnson Central. However, you are right several teams could win it! Prestonsburg is very athletic, (Williams, Jarrell & Frasier) but would have to play WAY over their heads to beat Johnson Central with their talent (Hall, Blair ect...). Pikeville & Pike Co Central is an old rivalry from the 59th district days and for that reason could be a good game, but PCC would have to play GREAT to win over (Rowe, Kasongo & company). The bottom bracket will be a dog fight! Betsy Layne & Sheldon Clark should be a good game, with guard play deciding the outcome. Belfry & East Ridge being a game of guard play (Miller) vs big man (Messer) deciding this one. If Johnson Central & Pikeville advance it will setup a great semi finals round no matter who advances in bottom bracket two games the teams will be evenly matched. In the finals the winner between Johnson Central/Pikeville will be the favorite but at that point it only takes one good game to get you to Rupp. Could be VERY interesting!!!
