Is that played at Breathitt?

Who does Lee play in their first game? When could they meet Hazard?

I was curious about them getting in also...

I see that you have taken Southwestern out and moved Breathitt down. I have not seen either play this year but was wondering why. Are they overrated?

No actually that is about the only person he passed to in this game. Now that the younger Stepp is playing Cox has become the 3rd wheel in the show. Cox is by far the best player on this team and makes everyone around him better. CLark Stepp could be a great player if he would pass off when he drives in the lane and 2 guys come out on him. The big men for JBS would have a field day and when he did pass off some teams would stop double teaming him which would open up easy shots for him.When it gets to chrunch time in a close game the kids that usually make the difference are Cox,Collins and Short. Hopefully they will play better team ball in the All A because if they play team ball I dont see anyone beating them...

1. South Laurel 2. June Buchanan 3. Breathitt 4. Paintsville 5. Bell 6. Shelby Valley 7. Clay CO 8. Hazard 9. Southwestern 10 Belfry

Good team effort from SL in this one....

I think there are many teams that can win one game in the tourney but I dont know if there are many that can put 4 together. If JBS plays just a little more team ball I think they will easily make it through to Richmond. They are shooting extremely well from the outside with 5 guys that can shoot the three and they can dominate the inside on defense and also on offense if they decide to go inside. I just really cant see anyone beating JBS....IMO

I agree with you that they played different in the WYMT and it was not all the players playing that way. Cox played very well and tried to make his other teammates part of the game. Collins,SHort and Hall could score 15 to 20 points a game playing for other teams and they refuse to throw them the ball unless the game is close and they want to win. If they would just play team ball this could be one of the best teams to go out of the mountains in a long time.

I think Henry Clay was ranked 17th in the (Lexington)Herald Leader this week. I guess it was based on strength of schedule huh? Or maybe it sells more papers...Im sorry but I cant see how they could be the 17th best team in KY...IMO

I went and watched this game and was very disappointed how selfish JBS played tonight. The Stepp brothers seemed to have a personal game going on to see who could score the most. They shot the ball every time they touched it and never even tried to pass to wide open people. JBS started out throwing the ball inside and scored easily but that didnt last long. The 4th quarter was spent watching the Stepps shoot some wild shots with both shooting 2 airballs each in the 4th quarter. I bet they shot close to 40-50 shots. This is not what this team needs heading into the All A. The good thing about JBS is that they have so much talent they can get by with this.

Final

South Laurel should be a slight favorite but dont count the Tigers out. SL by 3..

JBS and Hazard are the two favorites to win and one of them could have a bad game or something but I dont think both of them will lose before the finals . They are in opposite brackets...I expect to see these two in the finals..

GRC is to much for Montgomery in this one....

I think the region falls to SL and Bell and I have been impressed with the job Spurlock has done at Clay.

Congrats to Raceland because I never saw this one coming...

This game didnt surprise me because I knew Hazard could not beat PCC every time this year. Should be a fun district this year betwwen these two.

Final. THis was the same exact score as last week with the winner reversed. Both these teams really puzzle me sometimes.

South Laurel would have to be the favorite in the 13th but I think Bell may be closer than some people think. If these two meet in the region it will be a dog fight. Bell is the only team that I think is deep enough to play with SL. Bell is very athletic and I think could upset SL if they have a good shooting night.

Congrats to Pendleton in this one. This may change some views toward the All A...

Henry Clay by 7...

Bishop,UHA,June Buchanan and Paintsville will be my picks to win it all.....

Both Stepps,Cox,and Short have played together since they were 5 years old. Collins came as a 5th grader and Conley and Hall came as freshman from county schools. Collins is only one who lives out of county.

JBS by 15...Too much for Breathitt in this one...Too much inside ...Too much outside...
