Coach Young is used to being an underdog. Many of his Garrard's teams were in the 45th, and they always were able to remain very competitive in the majority of those contests. The Jumpers will have to mustard up great resolve tonight in the finals!

1985

Yes, he was a solid player for the Jumpers but has unfortunately been injury plagued his whole career. Lewis is a really good shooter, just not as physical being a FR.

Bruner has been out since Feb. 3rd with Shoulder injury. Coomer hurt his knee in the district semifinals. FR. Guard Josh Lewis has played well (18 points in Region 1st RD.) but is not the same physically on defensive end of the floor.

Somerset will have to be competitive on the glass, and try to neutralize paint scores. It's important for them to stay out of foul trouble being limited with some guys out with injuries. DCA is a tough matchup, but Somerset runs some creative stuff to get shot opportunities that can present some issues. I agree with previous poster this game will be low scoring.

Games will have live video feed on Maroon Sports Network. Lake Cumberland will have audio feed of both games as well.

I think outside of Wayne Co. you can argue these are the best teams in the 12th region, and have been so for most of the season. DCA is the favorite (with only 1 regional loss and huge size advantage), but will have to go through the gauntlet (already playing Wayne in an OT game) of worthy challengers.

Thanks for your continued coverage and breakdown all season. I expect two pretty good ball games tonight.

Lex Cath gets it done!

Congratulations to Coach Breeze and Adair Co! Nice run out of the runner-up slot!

Clay Co. Was game. They really turned their season around.

Yes, I get the theory but not all games or draws are created the same. Like mentioned, Hutchinson was on 1 foot and DCA is a totally different matchup with their size and length. Especially the first time you face it.

I’m sure Mercer Co. Preferred getting a so-so SW team, instead of the consensus #1 DCA in first round. Most years, I agree with you but with DCA being a runner-up this year Wayne Co. got the tough matchup.

It was a 3 PT game in the season finale? Maybe you're right, but I think Somerset will lay it out there and be ready to go. DCA is the far more athletically gifted team for sure.

I really don't understand the Massey Rankings in regards to Somerset. They've taken 2 out of 3 from Pulaski Co. (Including the District Championship on a Neutral Floor last week). But, rated 40 spots below them. Make it make sense.

47th has been better, or atleast just as good recently. Along with Pulaski and Somerset, Rock was a very good team this season (and last year as well). Two 20+ win teams this season with Pulaski and Somerset, and both in the Semis.

DCA Boyd made some huge pull-up jumpers for them down the stretch to push game to OT.

Jumpers started cold, but made 11 3s for the game. They will need to make perimeter shots to contend with DCA Mon. Night in Semis.

That's what I was thinking too! Kid had a strong back half of the season!

The school in Lexington where Damon Kelly took over as AD. My apologies.

They had 1 SR that played this year. I wouldn't say they have a great roster, but they played a ton of SOs this season so with the right coach they will improve.

Pulaski Co. is a much better team than some give credit. They got it rollin' in the 2nd half, and never looked back. I've said all year Zach Anderson #4 and Will Blankenship #24 are extremely tough and gritty players in this region. Blankenship may not be the athlete some of the Boyle kids are, but the kid has heart and toughness. He wore their guards out last night, so give credit where credit is due.

10th Region delivered last night.

West Jess will have a deep applicant pool. It's year in/year out a solid job in the 12th region.

East has some good pieces coming back. Miyo Jones was an all-region selection and a few other returning starters as well. I wouldn't call it a great job, but with the area it's in not a bad one.
