any other scores?

Any thoughts?

Villa v. West Jessamine

Greenup Co. v. Dixie

Ryle v. Bracken Co.

Estill Co. v. Lloyd

I see Dixie v. Ryle in the finals. Unless West Jessamine or Greenup are anywhere competitive with this level.

At the moment I would say Holmes would have to be the favorite. I'll also say that South Oldham, Gallatin County, Boone County, Beechawood and Raceland will all give a good showing.

 

Does anyone have a link to this bracket?

The way it works is the winner go through the champ bracket, and the losers go through the consolation bracket. A lot of games in 4 days. If you're bored, now you have something to do.

I think Lloyd is hosting a tournament next weekend for the first time...the format, along with the teams invited make it look interesting...it's not all that often the people of the north get to see some of the teams from the southern/eastern/western parts of the state! Teams participating: Magoffin Co, Conner, S. Oldham, Beechwood, Villa, Raceland, N. Bullitt, Holmes, Gallatin Co, Newport, Monroe Co., Boone, Lloyd, and Owen Co.

I have never seen some of these teams, so it should be a good showcase, as there ARE some very good NKY schools playing. Which of the non-nky schools should we watch out for?

are there any special things at these tourneys other than the competition? I know that sometimes pool play turns into seeding for 1 and outs and so on. I just wish they would change the 4 games=1 to more, so that the tourneys could be even bigger. Perhaps 6 games=1 or something.

Just a thought...it's that time of the year where many teams are traveling either in or out of the Bluegrass to play in tournaments...let's stay in the state...what school puts on the best tournament? Meaning competition level, fan turnout, hospitality, etc... any thoughts?:ylsuper:

Dixie by a few...wow

what was the score of the GC and Bellevue game? Villa played within 9 of Ryle? wow

I just saw Grant/Ryle game. Grant came out in much better form & gave Ryle a good game. Halftime was 31-30 Ryle. Grant could not get shots to fall in the second half & Ryle couldn't miss! Ryle's point guard had the hot hand last night. It was a good game & it was nice to see Grant step back up, bring some intensity as a team & continue to improve.

that's good to see, since everyone thought Ryle would cakewalk through this...wish Grant was in for the long haul. Standings?

Pool A: Pool B:

Lloyd 2-0 Ryle 2-0

Newport 1-1 Grant 1-1

Dayton 1-1 Bellevue 1-1

SG 0-2 Villa 1-1

Interesting way it's shaping up. Winner of Grant/Bell will play for #2 seed, and if Dayton can knock off Lloyd, that will throw a wrench into Pool A. Newport, I believe, got their first win of the season last night.

Last nights games ended up as expected, except for Bellevue knocking off Villa. Grant wasn't far off Ryle. Any news? I just saw what was in the Enquirer. They are actually giving a good article towards the tourney each day.

Grant did not play with their normal intensity. They looked lethargic compared to their more recent games. Free throw line was the game. GC 5 Villa 24. The PG for Villa was, herself alone, about 13 for 17 from the line. Grant couldn't buy a foul. Can't win if you give them the free shots. Some say refs, but a point could be made that when a team plays out of their normal rhythm, especially on defense, you send the other team to the line & get into foul trouble. If you send them enough, look what happens. Have to admit, a 24-5 point difference at the line is something to think about.

 

Box:

Grant County (3-3) - Morgan 3 1 7, Plunkett 1 0 2, Hopperton 2 0 4, Workman 1 0 2, Gorby 1 1 3, McIntosh 8 0 17, Lockherd 1 2 4, Johnson 1 1 3, Robbins 1 0 2. Totals: 19 5 44.

 

Villa Madonna (4-1) - McGehee 2 3 8, Case 1 5 7, Pike 2 0 4, Schroer 4 13 23, Gnotek 2 0 4, Bailey 1 0 2, Kreutzer 1 3 5. Totals: 13 24 53.

 

Grant County 11 11 13 9 -44

Villa Madonna 8 10 16 19 -53

Yes, hopefully Grant is ready tonight, or they will have their hands full with Ryle.

Middle school gym, thank goodness!

that's good. It's a nice gym for a middle school.

I think this tournament will give all these teams an equal exposure of teams at their own level, with the exception of Ryle...

Lloyd 52, Newport 42(per the enquirer/no box score)

Villa 53 - Grant 44, I thought Grant would be the better team tonight...obviously not. Villa is playing well. The Lloyd/NPT score is the only one not posted on khsaa...any word?

any results?

The schedule: Wednesday: At Scheben - Ryle vs. Bellevue, 6 p.m.; Lloyd vs. Newport, 7:30 p.m. At Lloyd - Dayton vs. Silver Grove, 6 p.m.; Villa Madonna vs. Grant Co., 7:30 p.m. Thursday: At Scheben - VMA vs. Bellevue, 6 p.m.; Lloyd vs. Silver Grove, 7:30 p.m. At Lloyd - Dayton vs. Newport, 6 p.m.; Ryle vs. Grant Co., 7:30 p.m. Friday: At Scheben - Lloyd vs. Dayton, 6 p.m.; Grant Co. vs. Bellevue, 7:30 p.m. At Lloyd - Silver Grove vs. Newport, 6 p.m.; Ryle vs. Villa Madonna, 7:30 p.m. Saturday: At Scheben - Seventh place, 10 a.m.; Fifth place, 11:30 a.m.; Third place, 1 p.m.; Championship game, 2:30 p.m.

First round I'll go with Ryle huge over Bellevue, Lloyd over NPT in a close one, Dayton big over SG, and Grant over Villa in the game of the night :thumb:

Are they playing in the old gym at the high school too? ouch

wow, Brossart is starting to get it going

Also, Villa and Lloyd are in the same district, which is probably why they are opposite each other, as are Bellevue and Dayton. That could have come into play here as well...just a thought. I would just like to know some times and matchups...16 games in 4 nights should be pretty exciting.

Local? Guarantee of 4 games counting as 1? not sure

Wow... the games are at 6 and 730 the first three nights... then in the mornign and early afternoon on saturday...

 

But god if you look at the pools it sure looks like Lloyd stacked them to make sure they make the finals...

not sure that I would count Dayton out of that bracket actually. They've been playing well so far...I also think that SG was a late addition to replace Holy Cross, whom was originally in the tourney...aren't there 4 games a night?

I would say Ryle will run away with this one. Villa might be a decent matchup, but Villa beat Lloyd by 3 and Ryle beat them pretty good the other night. What is Grant doing this year? Do they have the talent to handle Ryle? I am very impressed with Ryle's play so far.

Does anyone know the times for these games that start this Wednesday and go through Saturday? On the khsaa site it only has the Lloyd games. It's all local teams, so maybe the local fans out there can fill in the gaps. Thanks.

Russell down 26-24 at half on Boone 3 point buzzer beater. 3rd quarter was downfall.

 

Boone has 2 of the best players in their region. Bradley is rated #5 according to Catspause and Behrens is the top player in region.

Could you leave a link to where I can see these best players listings? Thanks.

Interesting matchup. What's out there about Russell? Will this be a good matchup?
