16th62nd

No, you can't guarantee that, I've seen PLENTY of batters brought back to the box in college and the pros for this. The umpire made a gutsy call AND a good one, that's what he's out there for. This was an obvious one by the way, it was definitely the correct call!!!

Then 10 umpires from the 9th region are WRONG. You have to "make an attempt" to avoid being hit, "make an attempt" being subjective in the eyes of the umpire!!

If you say that point was meaningless you must know VERY little if any at all about basketball. Sure, the Lewis Co. kid may have made the shot anyway, but ANYBODY that has played will tell you that it is MUCH easier to shoot a last second shot with the score TIED than it is BEHIND by 1 point!!! Come on, MEANINGLESS!!! You'd better think about that!!!

The boy's and girl's tournaments are both at West Carter this year. They start on Monday, Feb. 21. Anyone know how the seeding stands?

East was also without top scorer Connor Robinson in this one. Good win for a short-handed Raider squad. Russell is well coached and they will be fine when Skaggs comes back.

Elliott Co. 30 East Carter 28 at the half.

Knox Central seems for real. Handled GC with ease tonight. I'll take Knox central by 2-3 touchdowns.

LC 42 RC 28

I had no idea Wing and Cross were that young???

Vikings decide to go for 2 up 27-0. Then go for the onside kick up 36-0, and kick a field goal to make it 39-0. They call 2 timeouts trying to get the ball back up 39-0 before the half. To top it off they are up 46-0 in the 3rd and pass it on 5 or 6 straight plays and eventually get Cross another TD to make it 53-0.

I personally don't have a problem with their scheduling. They are winning, people in Westwood are excited, they are getting media attention, and the kids are having fun I am sure. That is really all that matters. There aren't any teams in our area winning the state title anytime soon. So why not play a schedule that you can succeed with, try to win a game or two in the playoffs, and let everyone remember in 10 years that Fairview won 9 or 10 games in 2010. I would rather beat Boyd Co. then lose to Ashland, I am not a fan of a good loss!

I believe Rowan Co. is the favorite, with Ashland and Elliott to follow.

Tomcats 42 Pirates 20

Behannen has become one of the top recruits in America. He has risen fast over the summer in the recruiting circles, and in my opinion is the far and away front runner for Mr. Basketball preseason. Name recognition goes a long way in this award and he is being name dropped by the likes of ESPN, Rivals, Scout, and others on a daily basis.

Raiders 22 Red Devils 21 A shocker at Henry R. Evans Stadium, and only the 2nd time in school history East beats Russell.

They will be good in the 16th, but I don't know about top 10. The nucleus is talented, the supporting cast not so much.

It is being ran by Bob Lyons from Paintsville. Several smaller schools from KY, TN, and VA among others are supposed to be in attendance.

He is coming to help coach Football.

Outstanding coach, will work very hard at rebuilding the Rowan Co. program. Congrats JD on the new job!!

Final from the 62nd district championship

Final per KHSAA from 5/7. Details? Who pitched for each team?

I love the idea.

Thoughts and prayers to the family of a legend in KY HS baseball. Always brought a great passion for the game to the field, and an even greater passion for winning!!

I read where GC's pitchers gave up 30 runs in 2 games on Sat. including 17 BB's. That is a long day. They did play 2 very good teams in Harrison Co. and Wheelersburg. GC will be fine in the end, it seems most teams in the 16th are struggling a bit right now.

Both are banged up pretty good right now.
