I don't know if South winning would be an upset. I like South's chances in Rupp. South Laurel 56 Hazard 50

KC will be favored, but this is a dangerous game for the Panthers. It reminds me of the 2003 tourney @ Cawood. Cawood was one of the favorites... they opened up with Rockcastle County. Rock (like Cumberland this season) had some late season struggles, but that night they took down the Trojans in the opening round... on their home floor.

3rd time's a charm.... Cordia 74 Hazard 68!!! Hurt goes for 32.... Taylor for 23.

To me, Hopson is the best. However, I think that Shelvin Mack has had the best season.

I'll agree with an earlier post... Hopson and Miller, in some ways have the same skills and talents. Both have "possible" NBA careers ahead of them.

Yes, you are correct. Darius is a great passer and a good defender. Hopson's "D" is a little better IMO. Regardless... it's a great honor for Hopson, and he is very deserving of it.

I have seen both play. To me, I would take Hopson over Miller. Darius is a better shooter. Hopson is a better scorer and rebounder, and is a lot tougher. Hopson is mos def one of the top players in the nation.

I think that Somerset would win at home or a neutral site, but I've seen in person... It's hard to win in Sterns. MC 78 Somerset 69

Cumberland 59 McCreary Central 53

KHSAA says that South Laurel lost. Is that true ?

With Bob Howard from Evarts being named as the principal of HCHS... does that mean that the Boys' B-Ball coaching job will in fact go to Mike Jones????

They will go after somone with a state title under their belt. It doesn't have to be a KY state title.

GIRLS 1. Pike Co. Central 2. Middlesboro 3. Clay County 4. Breathitt County 5. Johnson Central 6. South Laurel 7. Whitley County 8. Rockcastle County 9. Jackson County 10. Morgan County

BOYS 1. JBS 2. Paintsville 3. Corbin 4. Shelby Valley 5. Hazard 6. Pineville 7. Cumberland 8. Knox Central 9. Somerset 10. South Laurel

I'll stand by my post. A below average team for PCC is still a pretty good team. Allan Hatcher has over 600 wins. I'm pretty sure that he knows what he is doing. For all intents and purposes, the style of play kept them in the game with Mountain powers Cumberland, Hazard, and Paintsville.

Cole Draughn is the QB from the 2000-2003 era. He was about 6'2" 250ish. Muse is about 5'10" 170ish.

The 13th is at Knox Central.

yep... the other day.

Just to clarify my post... I would nominate Sarah Rowe, Kayla Lowe, and Heather Sturdivant from the Mtns.

Allan Hatcher knows his stuff. He is taking a below average PCC team and making them competitive. His style of play keeps the Commodores from getting blown out. The Cordia loss is not surprising. The Lions have the talent to make a run in the regional tourney... If they make it.
