UCME

I think this event is scheduled to late! Yes some players have early June move-in, but isn’t this the case for 90% of both rosters. Indiana has 100% of roster committed D1 and those selected for KY roster are 70-75% committed D1, the others have next level opportunities or still looking. I can confirm that the selection process was so late that It left some committed to next level to decline the opportunity! It’s unfortunate, because there are a several NKY players who showed they are very deserving not just throughout the year but this weekend against the Ohio All Stars! There is no perfect formula on who to invite but I wish Kentucky had a way to get the best to play! Indiana has figured It out on paper! Good Luck to those selected and make KY proud!

My apologies. You will still get a really good game after this one

All games are streamed!

Excited to watch the sisters from Central. Lola #1 2026 in Indiana and her sister highly ranked in 2025 class! Both played for U17 EYBL GYM Rats, which incidentally had a story telling summer. Not a positive story by the way! It will be interesting to see how two of Kys finest play against #2 Central! I like the chances of GRC and Ryle! Good luck to the KY schools!

Cooper and Assumption open H4H. Cooper showing why they are one of the best in the state! Balance scoring here at the half! Cooper up 40-16 at half!

I Look for this to be an exciting game, but I must root for 9th region in this one! Go Jags!

I found one at Walgreens in northern kentucky today! There was only one copy left along with 3 or 4 of previous year left!

It’s obvious you don’t know me very well or at all, I have ZERO bias whether I have a kid on a team or not! Yes I’m a Conner fan but I’m more critical on my own than I am anyone else. Since you singled out Conner and Hamilton then I will comment on that. In regards to Conner! They have huge voids to fill and will need several to step up to have an successful season! Anything inside top 10 would be surprise! in regards to Hamilton, I think @doubleduece has preseason right! My top 5 teams for 9th. Cooper Ryle- I don’t think gap is that far between 1&2 Holy Cross- I think have the pieces to beat anyone any given day! Highlands- just like this young team Notre Dame- everyone gained a ton of experience last year!

Great job as usual!! I agree with 90% of all your positions and about 25%of @1992Rebel comments! Simply need to look at the last 3 years stats, coaches and media rankings to support your positions! Great job as usual look forward to your weekly analysis!!

Terrific job as always @The Double Deuce

Unofficial Dalton Kramer 26 & 9 rebounds Landen Hamilton 22 & 5 assist Ayden Lohr 14 & 7 rebounds Daniel Campbell 12 & 5 rebounds 5 team turnovers! Conner continues to struggle from 3, if they can relocate the 3 ball they had first 12-13 games of season they will be a really tough out!

Conner Media YouTube streams all games and I understand @tscaggswftm on twitter will be covering audio on 95.9 WTFM FM OR FREE WFTM Radio APP

10 days is a long time not to play a game, not sure what happen here but seems like a very long time not to be playing during this chapter of season. Cougars will need to play very well to give Royals their 3rd loss. I think the time off will show early and allow Mason County to jump out big early making It to much for the Cougs to recover. Mason County by 5

Uncertain the magnitude of Tays injury but always concerned for anyone who suffers any type of knee injury! Wishing Cash and Tay the quickest of recoveries.

I have yet to see Scott play but they have been playing terrific basketball! I can’t wait to see them in person!

I don’t believe @Cov_Cath_Hwywas referring to rest of season perhaps referring to winning out regular season! Conners has been healthy last 6-7 games and playing great team basketball however they took a blow last night with 6th man and 3 point specialist going down with shoulder injury early in first quarter! I wouldn’t be surprised if Conner won out regular season and I wouldn’t be surprised if they stubbed toe along the way as the schedule remains strong! If Conner can stay healthy they will without doubt be a factor in 9th!

This game was 51-15 at one point in 3rd. Last 12 minutes of this game played with JV players! Surprising result! Sk simply didn’t show up!

I Hope Dixie has enough to make this competitive but my gut says North by a bunch. 20 plus

Going with the Birds in this one! Highlands 82 Newport 70

Kramer averages almost 20 ppg and not in the box score above. I would assume he did not play.

Unofficial: Holy Cross: Jake Meyer 28, Javier Ward 11 Conner: Ayden Lohr 23, Dalton Kramer 22, Landen Hamilton 20 Conners ability to find the open man and creating for others was the difference. Good luck to both teams moving forward, I would not be surprised if they see each other again for the third year in a row in the Regional tournament!

Does anyone know if this event will be streamed?

I think this year the 9th region backcourts collectively are as strong as I can remember in last 10 years. Cov Cath, Highlands, Holy Cross, Conner, Lloyd, Newport, NCC all extremely guard heavy and very talented! I believe this is what makes the 9th so compelling! With the unfortunate injury to Caleb Brooks there are really no dominant bigs left in the 9th! The 9th region will likely come down to who has the best back court play at the end of season and what teams complementary parts step up! Should be some exciting battles on the way to the 9th region tournament!

I was able to watch most of this game. Cooper started the game on a nice run and kept the lead for the majority of the first 2 1/2 quarters. It looked to me that both Kay and Logan started and played significant minutes. Cooper got into foul trouble late in the game with two starters ultimately fouling out. This contributed to the score differential. Prayers to Dee Alexander and her family are needed! Dee went down mid 3rd on what appeared to be a significant injury, game was stopped for several minutes, and ambulance was called to take her to ER. I couldn't tell what the injury was but it appeared to be to the head, possibly banging it on the floor. I hope she bounces back quickly!

Everything tells me Cov Cath by 20 plus, however I just don't see that happening tonight. I believe the difference this year from last year will be who in the secondary defense will contend with Meyer. I think the overall outcome will be if Holy Cross can show up defensively, history would indicate no! Cov Cath 82 - Holy Cross 72- Unlike last year when this game was over from tip I expect this to be a battle.
