Back to the subject. Didn't a Trinity big man win Mr. Basketball their championship season?
Yes.... Nathan Dieudonne Bio - GoTerriers.com - Official Home of Boston University Athletics

Not correct. 2006 was the first year that Bullitt Co schools were moved to the 6th. Also PRP beat east in 2013 regional semi final.
I was thinking East was added to 6th when Jtown, Fern Creek, and Moore was added... which happened to be the same year High School Basketball became relevant to me again...

Shellman is 6'6", isn't he? Is he going to play in college? He appears to be an awfully good player.
What about Willie Schurfranz? His dad is a 7-foot physician who is a Trinity grad and who, I think, held the Bellarmine FG percentage record until Thelen broke it. Will he play in college?
I'd love to see the Colts make it to Rupp. Willie's grandfather also played for Bellarmine.
Shellman will play college somewhere. D2/D3 ranks I believe is where I saw teams he had offers from or was visiting.
-
Someone correct me if I am wrong... But this will be the first year since reorganization of the Louisville regions that it hasn't been PRP/East final. I believe East will be a lot better team next year with who they have returning.

The current Sophomore class has been playing together since 7th grade. They have had limited playing time at the Varsity level because that group was so loaded. The JV team only lost 1
game this season. These boys have waited patiently for their time to shine, and BELIEVE me- they will.
Also, the word on the street is that there may be some more players leaving Waggener after this year.
It would not surprise me one bit.... There is a reason 2 other guards left last year.
-
How well was the transfer West for the team? He seemed to get a lot press at the beginning of the season but never seem to fit T program.
-
I agree about tempo. So I will take Trinity. They have been able to control the tempo the last several meetings. Trinity size seems to give Ballard trouble. Ballard constantly attacks them and has to shoot over them. Ballards run and jump traps is usually not a factor with Trinity. Their size helps them with pressure. Ballard needs to shoot well from the perimeter. JCPS has blown it again with scheduling. I realize you cant control the snow but this should have been an 8:30 game. Also both the 6th/7th region final will be on the same night. That will not be good. Not sure why they didnt play finals on Thurs/Friday
Maybe to have minimal conflict with girls state tournament that will be going on...

I believe their main point guard is Devin Cooper...he scored 26 last night and averages around 18. If Kevin Kirby were playing Waggener wouldve probably won by more. That AAU coach stocked the team two years ago; since then there have been two transfers. One transfer starts for FC the other at Central. That AAU coach was also a part of one of the biggest point shaving scandals in NCAA history.
Cooper is really the shooting guard who is forced to play point.... Amazing both kids that transferred from Waggener are better players and getting the coaching they need.
-
Waggener does have talent but I believe their main point guard is out for the season. What Waggener is really missing is decent coaching. Unless the kids AAU coach behind the bench, the coaching is missing most of the time.

Fern Creek wins this game. Bullitt East struggled with a depleted Whitefied team (start out whole game, 1 or 2 more players at point through out game). Defense will dictate the game and it sharpe has to handle the ball plus score East will be in for a long night.
-
I watched the Eastern/KCD game and was actually impressed with Eastern's play early in the game. KCD is not the KCD of the past. They had two players who were 2nd team All Region and Eastern had them down 16 at the half. The game got a lot closer in the final quarter, but Eastern was always in control. Reed was big in the 1st Q, but really did not impact the game like Trey Moses. Stranger things have happened, Eastern could win the district championship without Reed, but it will be much harder to do so.
Ballad has so much speed and can match Moses height. Should be a run away game. Plus I think Easter struggles with their guard play, which should allow Ballard's press to be effective.
Now, being this is kind of a rivalry game, should be close early, but Ballard still runs away with the game.
-
So does that mean that a team winner in the 7th region would like to draw Eastern??
yes...

Fern Creek vs Jtown was a great game last night. Creek came in with a game plan & stuck with it the whole game. Johnson couldn't get a clean shot or get to the basket all night. He finished with a season low of 9 points with no basket since the 1st qtr (6 1st qtr, 3 free throws rest of game). Creek struggled with their shot the 2nd half soo they got to basket for scoring. Others for Jtown tried to pick up scoring but with bad shots which hurts team. Nothing but good things for Fern Creek with the coaching & kids. They play hard and listen to coaches.
Johnson's school decision should be by end of March. Should be an exciting next chapter...

Louisville just made an exception today...

Where does the # of votes come from?
-
DJ Scott is a nice player. I thought for sure it would a blowout but I guess without your main guy, the game was close. In Jefferson County, there are some good kids and the teams are spread out.
-
It depends Owensboro guard play. If they can handle Trinity's defense, they win. But I believe Trinity get back on track and win by 6.
-
Just making noise when I said Parker dominates Sutton. I know Sutton is going to score & rebound. But Male won with inside out presence. And they got that from Parker with total team balance. The same I would say for Johnson with Jtown, he is going to do his thing no matter the defensive. Other guys have to step up to be successful in big game situation..
-
Per Courier Journal :
"Will Parker added 17 points and 10 rebounds, and Will Cook finished with 13 points, eight rebounds and six assists in the victory."
and
"Miller hopes beating Manual for the third consecutive season will be a spark as the Bulldogs wrap up the regular season."
and
"Friday’s game also marked the season debut of Deondrai Williams, who suffered a severe cartilage injury in his knee during the preseason. He only scored five points, but coach Larry Miller said his presence on the floor filled a huge hole for the inconsistent Bulldogs."
-
Good players are going to play their game.. Sutton got his & Parker led his team to victory. Manual will be fine but has to win the big games.
6th Region (Regional Final Preview)
in KY Boys Basketball (High School)

Not sure how officiating has been for the region tournament but I believe that will dictate the play some. Doss is deep but Desales plays a smart game. If the officials allows Doss to play their game and Doss plays like they want it, they win running away. Something different happens, Doss still wins a close one.
Doss by 10.
