Bracken kept the game closer then any of us though they would, I can't say that as a team they overachieved anything. I also can't understand pointing the blame at one player on the team, just as I couldn't see blaming a player that wasn't on the team for them not winning a District championship.

If having a winning record is overachieving then yes they overachieved.

Who are Bracken County's top 7 players in 2017/2018? Are they playing Augusta?

Give credit to Bracken for not giving up after being down 14-2. They played with more energy for most of the game. Campbell looked shell-shocked at times. Russell is 3-0 in regional finals.

Congrats to Campbell County on a well executed game plan. Good luck in the 10th Region Championship.

What were the individual stats for both teams?

If Hinson played a tougher regular season schedule they maybe could have had a better run. His weak schedule hurt his team in post season (2 wins vs St. Patrick, Harrison Co).

I do want to thank the officials for letting the kids play tonight, this was such a fun game to watch. If it was called as tight as the 1st game tonight was it would've been awful.

Agree 100%. The game had great "flow."

I am just glad Cooper got it for all tournament team and they gave it to the rights kids this time.

For Brady,he has never played in big time games. Well none of them have. He is a great kid and has great grades!! Brady will be just fine.

It showed too. I thought when Crawford went "Brent Bach" and hit the buzzer beater before the end of the 3rd Quarter I thought it was over.

Four great halves of basketball tonight.

#15 Brady Jones played poorly in all 4 post season games. He didn't play with a chip on his shoulder and it cost Bracken County the 39th District Championship. If he showed up tonight and played aggressively Bracken probably beats Campbell.

Top 10 teams...

1. Clark

2. Mason

3. Campbell

4. Paris

5. Pendleton

6. Scott

7. Montgomery

8. Brossart

9. Harrison

10. Bourbon

??

Corbin has a great back court in Andrew Taylor and Blake Sanders. I think Hounds win by 9.

Most regions don't have the luxury of a Marshall County, Henry County, Mason County, Pulaski County, etc. so the next best option is the local university (Murray State, Morehead State, EKU, WKU, NKU) or a community arena (Expo Center, The Arena). Every region is different and "there is more than one way to skin a coon."

Scott is playing with house money (37th District Runner-Up) and also playing without fear. They are hungry to get to their third 10th Region championship game (2013 & 2015) and get over the hump (Pun intended) vs Campbell County.

The winner of this game has a legit chance to win the 2017 Sweet 16.

If the 38th District seeded better chance of having 4 quality games instead of 4 average games....

First 3 quarters of Clark/Campbell were good

First 3 quarters of Mason/Scott were good

Bracken/Harrison ugly

Robertson/Paris idk what that was

Titus Ransom from Boco should easily be on this list

You're right! I don't know how I forgot about him. He had a great junior season. He could be pre-season top 10....Thanks!

Every team gets better except Bracken, Campbell, Scott and Paris but all 4 of those teams are usually always good. Bourbon, Nicholas and Augusta stay the same. The rest improve in some way....Montgomery gets way better. Brossart gets way better. Robertson and Harrison gets way better. Clark gets way better. Mason loses one starter. Pendleton loses one starter. Campbell loses 3 starters. Bracken loses 3 starters. Scott loses 2 starters. Paris loses 2 starters.

It never stops. :lol:

 

We've been hearing how great this senior class was since they were in diapers (some still might be) and once again here we are, no All A Region Championship, no district championship, and would've been a first round knock out had they not drawn the 2nd worst team in the tournament.

They also drew the worst team in the district tournament too. They would have probably lost to Mason Co or Augusta first round of districts if they dodged the green pill.

Perkins can't score...If he was more of an offensive threat Mason Co could be team to beat next season.

How can the top say this is David vs. Goliath when Bracken County is 1-0 vs Campbell this season?

I thought the other game was called well also. What region are they from?

Regions 6-7

Campbell 62

Bracken 47

Final

WHOA! Congrats to Coach Gaither....they sleep walk to the finals right?
