black 10

If Corbin, was at the South, KC, game at South. They will press the whole game if, they do press Corbin, by 15 points, "if not" KC, by 3 in a barn burner.

Typical North, guy wishing South, ill fate. Just got to love it!!! :ylsuper: This means South, wins big!

I wonder what the Hound fans, thought about Johnson's, shot selection tonight:D. He's the most unappreciated player on the team. Corbin, fans give him down he road after every loss. Especially after the the District loss to South Laurel. They could not of won tonight with out his, hard play and scoring. Show the kid some love, he's the real deal, just young.:thumb:

Gover, would be a nice addition to any team, great kid, fun to watch play and from a "Super family" as well! He would be a great pick up for the G Men's team. The 13 Under D1 state, should really be interesting with teams beefing up their team roster with the states top players. I don't know much about the 13 Under NE KY Royals, or the Wolf pack. I'm sure they will be strong teams. I do know the G Men, and The Ville, is loaded with top (2013) players in the state, may be some in the country. This 2013 class is loaded with basketball IQ players and athletes. Some think the class of 2012 is stronger, may be athletically, but not with basketball IQ players. Sorry, The Rising Stars, is a very good and very well coached.:thumb: This is why I love AAU basketball, the best going against the best "Iron sharpens Iron". I tell my players you will never know how good you are or how good you can become. If you don't play the best players or teams and love the challenge. I'm excited about getting to watch all this talent play in the state tournament. Like T.O., says "get your popcorn and watch the show", :banana:as Dukie V, says "It's show time baby".:walk: I hope to see you at a gym soon.

Like all fans just because they won :thumb:

Knox Central, can only get to Rupp, if the get a ball handler between now a Regional. They had a 17 point lead at South Laurel, and lost it simply for not being able to handle the basketball under pressure. Five different 13 Region coach's in the building smelled blood. They won but South, missed like 10 lay ups and 6 threes. at the end. Central, has a good team, but ball handlers become a premium at tournament time. Corbin has best shot, but don't count out South, Cumberland, Knox Central or Pineville.

Is Corbin, the number 1# seed in their district ?

What will make the class of 2013, so special is the competition level. I love watching all these kids play from across the state. I try to keep up with them as much as possible. I love hearing good things about each of them. I call this class " The Fun Bunch" as alway their fun to watch play.

qryche11, Thanks it really gets frustrating, but it's part of playing sports. I'm looking forward to watching a lot of these teams and kids play in the future. Kentucky's class of 2013 is loaded with talented players. I hope to see you in a gym, in the near future. Good luck to the Bird's in the Middle School State Tournament.:thumb:

Clay Co. has lost their starting PG. this will hurt them some. I don't think it will be like South Laurel, losing their PG Sanders. South, lost one of their better bigs in the middle this past week also. I hate South, is not going to be 100% coming into the Middle School State Tournament. South, has not been a 100% all year, 4 of their starts have been hurt or sick all year. Not a good situation for, this years Cards to be as competitive as last years team. The Cards won State BCI, and State USSSA at Hoops. With a 41 and 2 record last years record. With key wins over New Castle, IN, PC, Lex Cath, Hazard 3 times, Wayne Co. twice, Meece 2 out of 3 and 2 big wins over the Louisville Prodigy with Snyder and Quick. Their only losses was to The G-Town Thunder at a Thanksgiving Tournament and Meece, at Meece. South, is the type of team that is like a puzzle, if their missing a piece of that puzzle it hurts them. They are a very quick and athletic group of kids. The most athletes group of 7th graders 1 thur 10 I've seen, in the state. They don't have a lot of skilled basketball players just athletes. Sanders is a big part of their offense and makes them hard to press. Sears, Radar and Byrd is their next best skilled players next to Sanders. Sears and Radar are about 80% with knee and hip injuries. South, should be competitive and play hard but as short handed as they are with 2 starts out, it will been a tough road for South Laurel. Good luck Cards!!!!!!!!:dancingpa

South Laurel's, Sanders will not play in the tournament. He is out for 3 to 4 more weeks rehabbing his ankle and leg. Very big loss for South, but their still a very solid team. South, will be a very competitive team with Radar, Sears, Byrd, Mitchell and company.

South Laurel, 7th grade PG Sanders, broke his leg last Tuesday night at Boyle County, in the final 2 Min's, of the 8th grade game. Big loss for the Card's, but their still a very athletic group of players, if sears gets back from his sore knee, south should be fine with the help of Rader. Their defense wins a lot of games for them the have lots of team speed. The Rader, Mitchell, Penington and Byrd kids are very quick and pressure the ball hard. They will need Sears, for scoring with Sanders out for the next 6 weeks. Just a tough break for the Card's and Sanders.

Southerkyhoops, South Laurel, has lost their PG Sanders, for 6 to 8 weeks. Their other good player Sears, is nursing a knee. South Laurel's lost their 2 top scores and team leaders.

South Laurel's 7th Grade, won 71 to 6 over Jackson Co. starters only payed the 1 st qtr and part of the 2nd. South's 7th grade improve their record to 14 and 0, 8th grade won 67 to 44, 6th grade lost 40 to 30.

Whitley, was up 8 to 0 before St john, went out in foul trouble. South, went on a 29 to 10 scoring run before the end of the second qtr. South's smaller line up and press turn in to trouble for Whitley, South turned them over for some easy baskets.

Plato, I know your the greatest philosopher of all times. You know, their is no way any one can keep parents happy. Expcially when its comes to coaching their childen in sports.

Spindoc, did the get their deer later in the day.

Absolutely our Middle School coach's believe 10 or 12 is plenty of kids on their teams. They ask the kids the cut to find travel team or play for community sports teams etc.. They tell the kids the cut what the need to work on to be more completive for next year try outs. Parents will complain if their child is on the team an gets no playing time. I think the kids that get cut and finds them a team to play on has a better chance of improving. Than a kid that sets on the end of a bench all year and get little or no playing time.

South Laurel's 7th grade started their basketball try outs today, has any one else started yet. Last years guys looked good, except the football players looked a little rusty. This years team is bigger, faster and stronger, they will be fun to watch if the stay health all season.

Great win for these kids and the coach's.

As always South Laurel and Meece will be a great game to watch. If anyone likes Middle School Basketball this is a game to mark on your calender.

Souths, first game is Northern Pulaski, November 8th.

South Laurel, has pretty much the same team as last year.

Can't wait for basketball season to start. Down here in the southern part of Kentucky, looks like Whitley Co., will give South Laurel and Meece, 7th grade a run for their money.
