Agreed. I've said all year that Hill is more talented than he realizes. I know he has had some big games...I just think he can dominate every time he walks on the floor. Especially if CCH big/skinny men go soft....

I'm truly happy for the Raiders....only saw them play at US Bank game vs CCH...looked discouraged from the first tip...Cov played real well, but Ryle seemed to have much more talent than they showed. Good luck !

Unless something changed....5:30 and 7:30 Monday and Tuesday,,I don't know if they still clear the gym between? Similar times for Friday, usually don't clear the gym between the semis....finals Saturday night

Congrats to Ryle! Didn't come close to callin this one. Thought BC was coming together. Predicted Boone to win the district and make some noise in region....Anyone see it?

The 9th is supposed to draw Saturday. Games start Monday Tuesday...then Friday Saturday..

There's one more to keep an eye on.. Ryan Darner...played with the same group..hit 3rd thru 5th...beautiful stroke...a little shy...may need a year to get comfortable..but this kid can hit!

Haven't seen Holmes since the changes in roster....this is a great game and a tough call,. CCH didn't play real well vs HC..credit the Inidians...but, they are a much better team since the last game. CCH by 8.

I was misinformed...my bad...congrats Raiders

Looks like all eight are in: CCH Holmes HHS NCC Boone Conner Dixie Ludlow Thoughts?... Winners: CCH HHS Boone Dixe Run Ups Holmes NCC Conner Ludlow

I just think you gotta play three games well. If you play #1 on the first night or the third night...what's the difference. Plus, coming in as a lower seed isn't a bad thing...the favorite may look at it like you do and bring their b game... round one is a great night to catch the supposed top dog(s)...-with that being said, I agree that Holmes, CCH and HC want the title...

In reality, the district champion title means very little (maybe a slight edge in first round), however, Holmes is far from an absolute second place. With or without Rice, they will be tough to beat. If Hill ever realizes how good he is, he could take over...but I do like the Colonels chances against whomever at this point. Tuesday will be fun!

I'd like to see some of these kids go back to work and come back the next year instead of jumping schools or quitting the sport. Not that I fault them for their personal decision...I just remember guys like Chuck Berger, for example, who I think was very average as frosh...either didn't play or got cut, was all state as a senior on one of cch's better teams. (1970 ish)

I have heard no one make such claims. Both of those young men were, and would be welcomed at CCH!!! (Can you imagine adding them to this year's mix? ) Anyway, they made a decision they felt was best for them....period. No one pushed them out or claimed they couldn't play there. That's silly. I hope they both continue to have great success...they are both good kids who work very hard on their games. The maturity level in this thread is questionable tonight at times.

I admire your passion HC, that's what makes your school special...I mean that. BTW, time will tell relative to all of your thoughts....and for what it's worth, Maile led the JV team scoring average and missed overall most points by 4 while playing 110 minutes less than the top five as he broke his hand mid season....

Cautiously optomistic...Continuing as they have been playing, the Colonels by 15...

To me it's pretty simply. No one is going to call a perfect game. No one will be happy with officiating....ever. All you can ask is for them to check their egos and their emotions in the locker; hustle to be in position; and call what they see. The worst aspect of the ninth region is a couple who think they are the show...and a few who just don't work hard enough.. Beyond that, it is what is ... a difficult job done pretty well by mostly hard working officials doing their best.

Don't the coaches vote on this poll? Many of them simply don't play PC. If they did, I agree, they would have been #1 more often than not

Courier Journal has them 5th behind Scott Co, S. Laurel, E Town, and PRP
