The Jumpers lose to a team they should have beaten by three touchdowns.

There are alot of sports writers that must not watch girls basketball. The person who did the 12th region must have been asleep for over the last year. In the preview they talk about Southwestern returning a senior contributer named Heather Overton. Heather did not play last year and will not play this year while she still recovers from a near fatal car accident. Her story made the 27 WKYT news last year. Extremly disappointing reporting.

Well said Jesse James. Martin will be a Miss Basketball candidate. I also agree the 12th region is flawed from top to bottom. These rankings along with Bolus rankings at least on the girls side are very rarely correct.

If it is like some of the other regions it is a huge joke. I dont know who ranks players and teams but huge glaring omissions and misranked players. The biggest example I can think of is the 11th region where Elizbeth Horn is ranked ahead of Anna Martin, Courtney Clifton, And Ebony Rowe. Dont get me wrong Horn is a fine ballplayer and even better person but those three are better basketball players who will go D1 and contribute at the next level. There are several others from different regions to many to list. It is a shame that a publication like Cats Pause does not do a better job checking some of the info. Of course this is just one persons opinion.

Dont get me wrong I agree Waters was/is a great talent that played on a lot of bad teams. If she would have had more talent around here she may have been able to develop more parts of her game. Hammond in my opinion will be a more rounded player with perimeter skills.

I agree with Big Impact you are a legend in your own mind, who lives in a dreamworld that really does not know squat about girls basketball. I will choose to wait and see where all these girls play at the next level. The only ones who have committed so far is Salyers to a D1 school in Morehead State and Mitchell to IUPUI.

I think she will be better than Waters. She has an outside game that will benefit her at the next level.

Hammonds will get better she is young. She has the potential to be the best the 12th region has ever seen. Dreamland should be a college scout He/She have everyones strenghs and weaknesses pegged.:banana:

I will show up whenever someone is dissing a kid no matter who it is. Dreamland lives in a dreamworld.

Big Impact that was a very informative post thank you. I agree with you that Brown and Hammond will go D1 when they graduate. I also believe that Mitchell is going to IUPUI which is D1. Therefore you have 4 post players from the 12th region that will play at the D1 level in the coming years. That tells me there is alot of good b-ball being played in that region.

Strong words to say about a kid. She will sign a D1 scholorship in november and is in my opinion the best post player in the region. I believe that she will be a fine 4 at the next level. Plus I heard a few weeks back that she was a goveners scholar also. I also believe that Brown and Hammond are great ball players who will go D1 if that is what they want. Cant wait to see some basketball in a few months.

Great high school Football game to watch. I truly thought Danville would win going away. I was impressed by boyle countys line play.

Danville by two touchdowns. Harp has been in this game along time.

Monticello is in the toughest district of the region with Southwestern and Wayne County. I think if they can win a big game at crunch time the girls will realize they can compete and then they may make some noise.

Mercer County has one of the best coachs in the region. They lost Spivey to graduation but I am sure that he will have them ready come tourny time.

Interesting selection dont you think? In another thread about Rockcastle County you stated that Hammond was the best. You need to stick to one choice.:banana:

Fothergill is Southwesterns point guard she is not a post player. Granted she is one of the best point guards in the area.

Not quite sure where that one came from. I have never been to southeastern Ohio. Looks like Dreamland is trying to break rule #5. I also believe that the 12th Region has alot of good big girls but if I had to chose the best I would say it was a 4 way battle between Megan Pittman, Kendra Brown, Stephanie Salyers, and Sara Hammond.

Sad Sad little man. I will not make it to the SW Lincoln Football game. I will be watching Highlands and Cove Cath. But if my travels allow me I will be there to watch SW Girls beat Lincoln Co. this year. Getting the thread back on topic. Rockcastle will be one of the 3-4 best teams in the region and Hammond will be one of the best players no doubt.:banana:

Are you talking about Lincoln giving the game away by missing field goals? or better yet the couple of times they stopped Washington only to get 15 yard penaltys for unsportsmalike conduct to keep there drives alive. :dancingpa

I didnt think Washington would bully Lincoln on the line of scrimmage. It was an entertaining game to watch though.

That is great! She is a special talent and a good kid from what I have obseved and have been told.

Wrong, I dont even reside in pulaski county. I make my living on the road and central Ky. is my area. I do love watching sports though whenever I get the chance. Saw a great Football game last night in Lincoln County.:dancingpa

Somerset should prevail in a close game. Somerset a little better than people think and Southwestern not as good as people think.
