Scott Baio

I think Cody Miller from Knox Central should be in the top 25, he is a very skilled player who has good size and can score from anywhere on the floor.

7 - Betsy Lane 5 - Sheldon Clark 3 - Boyd Co. 2 - Pineville 1 - Raceland TB - Boyd County

Corbin is a very good football team, but I think NL's o and d line is much better than Corbin's this should be a very good game, much closer than most are predicting.

7 - Breathitt 5 - North Laurel 3 - Bath County 2 - Rockcastle County 1 - Belfry TB - Bath County

7 - Letcher County Central 5 - Ashland Blazer 3 - Southwestern 2 - Allen Central 1 - Knox Central Tiebreaker - Letcher County Central

I hope Coach Hines uses it as a teaching tool, but right now it seems all he can do is take shots at North Laurel and its adminstration if you read the Commonwealth Journal.

Yes, Coach Parrett is still on staff.

Not sure on the asst. from Scott Co., but the South Laurel asst. is Brad Sizemore.

I heard a rumor that Pike Central offered Steve Wright 80K to take this job, anyone else heard this?

I heard this rumor during the state tourney, Steve Wrights name was mentioned as a replacement for Billy Hicks.

Coach Chappell is a Special Ed. teacher. Larry Welch also teaches PE/Health at SL.

Where's Leonidas? Seems he had all the answers to the coaching search at NL. Maybe he's on spring break???

How about this for the 13th: 49th Clay Co. Jackson Co. North Laurel Rockcastle 50th Corbin South Laurel Whitley Co. Williamsburg 51st Barbourville Knox Central Lynn Camp Pineville 52nd Bell Co. Harlan Co. Harlan Ind. Middlesboro

Not to be negative to any of the teams listed in the 49th, but if this is how the redistricting goes Clay Co. will be in the region tournament every year while the other districts would be competive year in year out.

They are, 15th and 13th switched.

Plain and simple these officials were in over their heads and that goes for the entire tournament. The play you are refering to should have never happened the officials let the game become so physical, tempers were flarring on both teams. And to beat it all they totally botched the call, Wardrup should have been called for a personal foul and then both players (Wardrup and Manns) should have recieved technicals for pushing one another. It is sad that the KHSAA lets things like this continue.

The 3-point attempt during the 3-second call was no good. Also, are the rules ignored just because it's late in the game? Should walks no be called or fouls becasue it's late in the game? I agree the old-fashioned 3-point play was suspect.

Laurel Countys HC stipened is 9000, head asst. 4500, all other asst. 4000

Any thoughts on who will work the state tournament from the 12th and 13th regions?

I mean to late to be seen on a national recruiting level.

Thats true, I'm not one to question the officiating a lot, but if I'm not mistaken I think St. John only had one foul and probably 8-10 blocks. As physical as he is he had to have made some contact on a few of those plays. I really look forward to when this kid realizes his potential and ablility, and starts to put the work in during the off season. Because the sky is the limit for him if he is willing to work. I just hope it isn't too late.

This was a great game to watch, NL didn't have an answer for St. John.

North Laurel - Nathan Allen, Josh Seidel, Mike Patton South Laurel - Richie Riley, Chris Berry, Ty Proffitt

Josh Seidel for North Laurel is an extreme longshot but puts up some great numbers and is really a lot of fun to watch, he reminds you of a high school version of Larry Legend.
