6'7" Senior Kyle Jackson led the Wildcats with 21 points, 10 rebounds, and 7 blocked shots.

Two game suspension went into effect last year. It does not matter what they were for---there is no appeals process. At least, that is if the powers that be are consistent from sport to sport and school to school. The technical was for hanging on the rim. And it was a terrible call. The dunk came off an offensive rebound with Harris coming full speed down the court. If he did not hang, his momentum would have likely caused him to all on his back. The three officials all looked at each other following the dunk to determine if they should call it or not. The second technical was for something he said. Hard to tell from the stands what it was---still have to be smarter at that point. The game was very poorly called (as was the BE/BC game, though not quite as bad). Several blatant fouls and violations were not called, and then there would phantom calls. Both teams point guards were in foul trouble throughout. It was good to see the PRP/Doss rivalry renewed a bit. I had not seen Doss have that many fans at a game since the Derek Anderson days of the early 90s. While PRP probably deserved to win, Doss scrapped to stay in the game. A few makes on some open shots in the 1st quarter would have had quite an impact.

Nope. Bullitt East has opted out of the LIT to play in a showcase in, I believe, Missouri that weekend. I don't think many of the JCPS schools were disappointed with that decision.

6th and 7th Region games last year were delayed because of heat index readings of 100+ on the turf at Jim Patterson and St. X. This year, due to the projected heat, they have already decided to move games so that they are all started before noon. 2 games each at Southern, PRP, St. X, and Eastern starting at 9 and 11:15. Semis will return to UL with evening start times Tuesday/Wednesday.

Male scored 2 each in the bottom of 2nd and 3rd to take a 4-0 lead, but would not tally another hit. WA responded with a run in the 4th, then Freshman pitcher Cameron Brussell (pushing 5'2") came in and kept the Bulldogs off-balance, using just over 20 pitches to get through the next three innings. Whitefield took the lead in the 5th on 4 runs, the big shot being a bases loaded double by soph. Nathan Getzin, which drove in two runs. In the bottom of the 7th, Brussell lost his control and hit the first two batters. Senior Cameron Smith returned to the mound after starting the game, to strike out the first batter he faced. With one out and two on, Male base runners tried to advance on a ball in the dirt, but Junior catcher Dakota Draper made a perfect throw to third for the second out. Smith then struck out Male's lead-off hitter on a called third strike to close the door. Not a very good day for Male as they also dropped a 3-1 decision to DeSales later last night.

Not many scores posted on here from the Louisville area, but figured this one was of note.

Brown??? They dont' even field a JV team typically. Also, Moore just started a HS program last year---they barely had enough to play then. Did you try Collegiate? I'm sure they will probably have one. They and KCD have had really strong MS programs for several years. I know I previously said Bullitts do not, but I do remember Bullitt East at least trying to field one at one time. CAL also could be a possibility.

In Jefferson, I can think of X, T, Manual, Male---that's about it. Ballard did at one time, but their program dropped off for a few years. Eastern might? None of the Bullitt Co. schools do. Based on size, facilities, and numbers, I would imagine Collins probably has one. Maybe North and South Oldham?

Great FT defense. Ballard was 8/18 at one point in the 4th quarter. The rest of Eastern's defense was pretty good too. Somewhat sloppy game both ways in terms of turnovers. Great energy on and off the floor from both schools.

15 of the top 20 in current LIT ratings are in the top half. 4 of the other 5 are all out of the 6th region in the bottom.

Cross, Price, and Kimbro did not play per Courier-Journal updates.
