Been really quiet. I've not even heard rumors beyond what @Colonels_Wear_Blue posted a month ago.

The floor used to have a lot more maroon in the lanes, center circle, etc. I think now that it is just wood (and lightly stained in many parts) it shows up as more bright on television.

Question: What is going on in the 15th Region?
gchs_uk9 replied to 16thBBall Fan's topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School)
The KHSAA is using the 15th Region for what appears to be a test run for all schools playing in the region. They did the same thing with the 15th about a decade ago for one year. I don't really know why they are doing this, unless it has something to do with modifications after the next realignment. It was in the last Board of Control meeting but I don't have any details beyond that. As for soccer, there are only six teams in the 15th Region that play soccer. I'm guessing a district tournament and region tournament would have essentially been the same teams playing each other twice in a week. I can understand why they would just hold a region tournament instead. -

It was never close. DCA led 25-0 after one and 48-7 at the half. Their first half was about a good as you can play.- 1 reply

Eastern 61 Kentucky Country Day 47
gchs_uk9 replied to LouHSJunkie's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
KCD still looking for their first region appearance since 1991. They field a solid team most seasons but they are in an extremely difficult district. -
DeSales at Iroquois Predictions/Updates
gchs_uk9 replied to LouHSJunkie's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
This district has produced quite a few upsets over the years but DeSales seems like the much better team this time around. Have to think the Colts win comfortably. -
There's been some heavy chatter about an upcoming basketball realignment. I hope this is something that is fixed. With the influx of several private schools in recent years there should be enough schools to assure there aren't any 3-team districts, although as @rjs4470 and @16thBBall Fan both said, you sometimes have schools that don't field a team, making a 3-team district necessary for that particular year.

Wayne, Monticello, McCreary, Pine Knot. In 1975 they moved into a three-team district along with Lincoln County and Casey County. When the Mercer schools moved in during the early 1980s, Russell was placed back with Wayne, Monticello, and McCreary. Russell lost to Danville in the 1969 region tournament, Hazel Green in 1970, Laurel County in 1972, and then Garrard County in 1977. So they were a semi-regular participant during your era.

Butler vs. Western Predictions/Updates
gchs_uk9 replied to LouHSJunkie's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
The last two years they've went in as potential region favorites and lost in the first round of the district. Does coming in as an underdog benefit Western this time around? -
Per the Scoreboard. Pretty big upset, right? Russellville came in 5-25 while Franklin-Simpson was 14-12 and the top seed in the tournament.

Danville at Garrard County Predictions/Updates
gchs_uk9 replied to RimRacker's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Guest was held to 5 points and really only had one good look. Garrard defended and rebounded well, in particular senior Chris Jones who hasn't played much this season but has very really solid the last few weeks. It always helps to make shots and Garrard shot it pretty well most of the night. -
Nice win for Garrard County over Danville tonight. Golden Lions led the entire way, coasting to a 69-52 win. Nice performance from junior guard Jay Noe who scored 33 points. Danville never seemed to get into any offensive flow while Garrard shot it well most of the evening. Golden Lions will definitely have their hands full on Thursday against DCA.

Danville at Garrard County Predictions/Updates
gchs_uk9 replied to RimRacker's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Guest scored 28 in the first meeting and 22 in the second, hitting 8 three-pointers in 17 attempts across both games. Garrard will have to defend, control the pace, and make shots. This should be a good game - it usually is when these two get together. -
Ballard vs. Christian Academy Predictions/Updates
gchs_uk9 replied to LouHSJunkie's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Lots of fascinating stats here about the Ballard program. I know they aren't as good as usual, but something in me says the Bruins get a first round win this evening. -
Open Job: Russell County

4-29 postseason record. First rounds wins in 2000, 2010, 2012, and 2013. -
Danville Christian Academy 48 Somerset 45
gchs_uk9 replied to LethalPG's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
I’ll add, I don’t think 10 teams can win three games in a row (that number is smaller), but a couple first round upsets could put the entire tournament in disarray. -
Covington Catholic 78 Madison Central 46
gchs_uk9 replied to Runcible Owl's topic in KY Boys Basketball (High School)
Down year for Madison Central but they have an extremely young roster. Three leading scorers are juniors and seniors but almost everyone else is a sophomore. I suspect they'll be back near the top of the 11th Region in a year or two.
