LCHS 1996

Olinger and O'Steen played with Hazard last night against Russell. It was their first game back.

Wish I could make the trip from out of town to come and watch this game!! South Laurel 85 Pendleton Co. 78

GRC 73 Mason Co. 71 In overtime!!!

Congrats to Jackson City!! It's great to see them playing good basketball!!

wouldn't have predicted this IMO!

Any updates from the Leslie Co. game? Thanks!

What is Russell's record this year? How do they rank in their district or region?

Hazard

1. North Laurel 2. Leslie Co. 3. Hazard 4. Harlan Haven't seen some of the teams, so I am guessing!

Probably because of the Stepp kid that plays for them.

Glad they kept it there!! Wouldn't be the same gym without it!!

Is the scoreboard still directly above the floor? Sounds like I might need to come in and watch some of this tournament in the new look gym. Thanks again PAT MAN!

What have they done to the gym?

You are exactly right Pat Man!! They will have there hands full with Hazard!! Though I have never seen them, everyone on here seems to think NL is pretty tough. I am glad to see the tournament back in Knott Co. where I grew up watching it. Are PCC and Knott Co. alternating the tournament each year as the host?

Leslie Co. vs. North Laurel would be a good second round game! All in all looks like it could be a real good tournament.

He was featured in SI his senior year, but don't believe he made the cover. He might have had a small insert in the corner of the cover.

Very true! I am sure he didn't play his freshman year because of the talent that you guys have to choose from year in and year out. Not because he couldn't play the position as a freshman and be good. Who played Qb when he was a Freshman?

Couch was only 3-3 for 63 total yds as an 8th grader. Those stats were not even included in the national records that he broke. Both were great HS school QB's that only come around ever so often!!!

I remember this guys name, think he came to Kentucky at one point(correct me if I am wrong). Monquantea Gibson from Moore. Never saw him play a high school game but his numbers are pretty impressive. 696 career points scored, 288 points scored in one season, 54 points scored in one game (9TD's w/574 rush yds) vs. Shawnee in 2001 (if someone saw this game please tell what you saw and how this happened. Sounds unbelieveable!!), 110 career TD's, and 6,741 career rushing yds. Anyone remember???

Mark Higgs (Owensboro) 6,721 career rushing yds. Played with Dolphins, for how long I don't know and maybe another team. Thought he was a great player for his size!
