How much is the tv broadcast? I can’t get the site to load currently? I’m old school and love listening on the radio but I’d like to actually see this one. Good luck to both teams. 

Highly recommend PrepSpin for best livestream quality. Bought a three game Saturday pass for $14.95. Believe a single game costs $9.95.

Earlington had football prior to World War II but by the time they won the basketball title in 1967 the pigskins were long gone.

For some of us, that championship loss ached like a phantom limb for over 40 years. Winning cures many things.

☺️ Congratulations Black Bears!

Proud of Camels.  They did not lose this game…..Harlan Co. won it.  There is a big difference.  48 point performance by Noah was epic or maybe heroic is the better word.

Well said. Noah was the whale in this version of the tale.

That ‘28 Corydon team was pretty good.   I remember them well.

How many times have two teams from the same county played each other in the Sweet 16®?

If I'm reading the KHSAA Basketball Record Book correctly, under the current Sweet 16® setup, this will be the 11th time. This will be the first non Jefferson County matchup. 

📖 Previously ~ 

• 1970 Semifinal - Male 58 PRP 52

• 1973 Final - Shawnee 81 Male 68 

• 1974 Final - Central 59 Male 54 

• 1977 Final - Ballard 68 Valley 59 

• 1981 Round 1 - Moore 72 Butler 63

• 1989 Round 1 - PRP 78 Jeffersontown 74 

• 1990 Round 1 - Fairdale 80 Male 64 

• 2005 Quarterfinal - PRP 64 Ballard 62 

• 2009 Quarterfinal - Central 71 Eastern 65 

• 2017 Quarterfinal - Fern Creek 55 Ballard 52 

This year ~

• 2024 Round 1 - Newport vs. Campbell County.

✔️ A previous all Campbell County game could have happened in a 2001 Semifinal.

• Both teams lost in Round 1 ~

Russellville 59 Highlands 45

South Laurel 64 Campbell County 63

🤔 Under a different tournament format and draw, only two other counties could have had teams play each other ~ 

• 1927 Ballard County - La Center and Wickliffe. 

• 1928 Henderson County - Henderson Barrett and Corydon.

Campbell Co should have won it in regulation but missed 4 straight FT’s.  Looked bleak in OT but Harrison went 1 for 2 at the line with 12 seconds left to go up 2.  Jackson for CC hits the game winner at the horn to exorcise the memory of the Jake shot.  

BGP in 3, 2, 1 ... 

"The Jake!!!"  

Congratulations Camels!

Claryville faithful rn, heading to Rupp ...

🏆😈 ♣️ | Final at the Sportscenter via Mark Mathis of the Messenger-Inquirer. 

OC ran out to an 8-2 lead, before O'boro clamped down on the game flow. OC cut the lead to one at 6:00 Q4 ...

This is Owensboro's first title since 1992. Congratulations Lady Devils! 🎉

Owensboro:  12 18 13 18 • 61

O'boro Cath: 14 13 12 15 • 54

Lady Aces (KY #4, 29-5, R3 15-2)

Lady Devils (KY #41, 21-11, R3 11-5)

OC's out of Region losses: #1 Sacred Heart, #2 Cooper, #5 Pikeville. Owensboro split the season series with 9th District rival Catholic, 2-2.

The Sweet 16 bracket is now complete. Owensboro will play Henderson County in Round one on Friday. 

Sad to see the Aces knocked out, as I am a big fan.

Congratulations Jaguars; well played!

Best of luck Tuesday. 🔵
