South Floyd deserves the 2nd place spot.....great job in the all A

[football player]

i agree with pacman's list

[Football_Freak]

1. South Floyd-played a tough scheldule and it is starting to pay off, also just won the All A Classic.

2. Paintsville-game Sf all they wanted in the All A, have beaten some really good teams but also lost to some weak teams.

3. Prestonsburg-Playing very good as of late, but still havent won enough to make up for some early seasons loses they have had.

4. Belfry-Very good team that is loaded with talent, but at the same time they are very inconsistent. In my eyes the bad lose to East Ridge droped them a few spots

5. Pike Central-They have the best player in the region in Brad Lowe and will competitive in every game they play.

6. Johnson Central-Could be Top 3 in the region if they get it all together but they are only a average team right now. Have won some impressive games, but also lost quite a few 2.

7. Magoffin Co.-Have played with every team they have played this year. Upset a very good Paintsville team at Paintsville. Loaded with talent and are not a easy win for anyone.

8. Lawrence Co.-Dont know alot about them, but do know they play in a very tough 57th district, and have had some good wins over some good teams but some even worse loses over some teams they shouldnt get beat by.

9. Phelps- are a dangerous team that can cause some teams problems when they get completely healthy. They had a good showing in the All A against Shelby Valley.

10. Sheldon Clark- Have the talent to beat anyone in the region, but cant get it together to lose so. They lost in the first round on the All A to Allen Central which droped them even more. They are still a tough team to play though, especially if they start playing as a team and using there talent.

Well, they lost two more games than Belfry has. Belfry only has 5 total losses, better than anyone else in the region.

Prestonsburg beat SF, JC, PCC, and SC. To say they haven't beat anyone good is crazy, and to not put them in the top 5 in front of everyone they have beat is even crazier.

[#_4]

Well, they lost two more games than Belfry has. Belfry only has 5 total losses, better than anyone else in the region.Oh I forgot that even if they get beat and don't win the All A that they are still the best.

Man, I don't know who you are but seriously you should stop blaming that loss on the ref's. Magoffin let that one slip away, and before you say anything I'm from Magoffin County.

If you consider SF as a good team and lost to P-burg by 18, then what is Johnson Central and Pike Central. These 2 teams gave P-burg a better game than SF. Don't get me wrong, SF is good when they are hitting shots, but when the shots arent falling (and they won't more than they will) then they are hurting. You take a team like Prestonsburg, and the two Centrals (Johnson and Pike) who rely on the inside game. They will be much more difficult to stop.

P-Burg defeated Pike Central by 3 or so, without Brad Lowe and on their home court. Lowe got injured and missed almost the whole game. If Lowe plays, that's a 30-point turn-a-round and PC blows P-Burg out. Don't get me wrong, they've been playing as hot as anyone in the region as of late, but Lowe missed the majority of the game and they still barely squeaked by. I think some of you guys are giving them way too much credit, just ask a 4-win Betsy Layne team.

You have a good point, and I replied in PCC and Prestonsburg thread the same way. With Lowe out PCC relied on each other to do the scoring, they moved the ball awesome, are very quick, and can run the floor. Now, if Lowe was playing, take away the team effort and give the majority of the shots to Lowe. You figure it out.

[blackcat]

Could a mod please fix this, I didn't mean to do that.

[THUNDERCHILD]

It wasnt like Pike County Central missed many shots, they didnt. They were shooting the lights out. They played great.

[Charlie]

You guys kill me thinking Pburg is so great when they barely got by Pike Central, without there best player Brad Lowe who is putting up 30 a game..There is no way u can honestly say had Brad played the whole game it would have been the same scenario...Please, gimme a break...

[BCF4L]

It may be that way with teams that only base their acomplishments on one player, but when you have a team like PC who has many talented players, then it doesnt hurt a team nearly as bad. Yes Brad Lowe averages 30 a game, but who's to say Brad would score that many? Who's to say that with Brad shooting as many shots as he does, that he would contribute to other players? You will never know and I don't think it really matters whether he plays or not. Same outcome.

Currently my top 10 would be (top 4 shifted 3 times looking at good wins/bad losses):
1. P-Burg - 7 wins in a row against region foes, bad losses early
2. SF - Dominant in region, won all-A, losses against good competition
3. Belfry - Also dominant in region, bad loss to ER
4. Pike Central - Great Player, good in region, 2 losses in region out of last 3
5. JC - Talented when motivated, bad losses in region as of late
6. Paintsville - Talented, but young, erratic, solid against region foes
7. ER - Good turnaround lately, can win against top teams
8. Phelps - Good overall record, mediocre region record, questionable scheduling
9. Shelby Valley - Who knows what to expect
10. Lawrence County - Can win against top teams, but can lose against bottom teams

You take a team like Prestonsburg, and the two Centrals (Johnson and Pike) who rely on the inside game. They will be much more difficult to stop.ok i read this and i was like good point and then i read about the brad lowe thing and was like well this guy contradicted hiself cuz u was like well whos to say brad lowe wouldnt have had a badd game well if u think back to the sf game...they played absolutely horrible,and that couldve been the reason for the 18, people can have bad games....im sure the raiders will be ready to PHS at home....

[JMac]

DAve Cantrall's Ratings - Not horrible given the +- 3 for error (could be +-5, can't recall). Also most of these polls are based on neutral floor so add another +- 3 for home court. Basically he says anyone from LC (maybe to Magoffin Co) up should be able to beat any other team at home. I can agree with that in this region.

15TH REGION
1. Paintsville 64.3
2. Prestonsburg 60.6

There is no way Piarist can possibly be over Pikeville, Magoffin, Betsy Layne or Allen Central. Yeah sure they have more wins but look who they have played. What David 5 times? All those teams have played tougher schedules and could beat Piarsit on a bad day I would have Piarist 16 and everyone else up a spot.

[jayblackcat2006]

You guys kill me thinking Pburg is so great when they barely got by Pike Central, without there best player Brad Lowe who is putting up 30 a game..There is no way u can honestly say had Brad played the whole game it would have been the same scenario...Please, gimme a break...
Brad Lowe may be averaging 30 a game, I agree, but I can guarantee you this, Hess isn't averaging 15. Also, I'm willing to bet almost anything that Hamilton and Ratliff aren't putting up 20 + a game either, if so, that would be 85 points between 4 players, hail Pike Central!

[Carlton Fisk]

As of 1-28-06, I think the region looks like this....next week it could be in reverse order, who knows....

Yall crazy Belfry is the number one team sorry...and id say pburg is number 2 but they are fightin wit south floyd

[BC75]

I like your list but I think I would drop SF down to 7th and move Lawrence and JC up one spot each. So it looks like this:

2. Prestonsburg
3. Paintsville
4. Pike Central
5. Lawrence Co
6. Johnson Central
7. South Floyd
8. Phelps
9. Magoffin Co.
10. Betsy Layne

yep

[basketballstar]

South Floyd 7th?????? How????? They beat the ALL MIGHTY TIGERS!! South Floyds record in the region is 7-1, they also beat Johnson Central. Are you jealous, or are you just that much of an idiot?

Lets see here They beat Paintsville and then only lost by a couple to them the following week , Then they have beat Johnson 'Central also they beat Shelby Valley and just lost by a couple to Sheldon Clark and Belfry. How they are not in the Top 10 in the region is beyond me.

They are 4-5 in the Region and 3-3 in the District.

[JMac]

South Floyd 7th?????? How????? They beat the ALL MIGHTY TIGERS!! South Floyds record in the region is 7-1, they also beat Johnson Central. Are you jealous, or are you just that much of an idiot?

I think you are talking about Dave Cantrall's rating from the Herald Leader?? Based on whatever his computer tells him, Paintsville has a higher rating. I don't know if he accounts for head to head though.

Given the margin for error though on the computer rankings, every school from about 9 or 10 could win on any given night. I can agree with that although I don't agree with the order he has them. My list was after that. I think I put P-Burg on top, SF second and Belfry third. That could change my the end of the week given the parity in the 15th.

[JMac]

I put LC in the top 10, but I am biased a little bit. Go to 3 high schools and you feel a connection to a bunch of teams. Based on thier good wins, they got one step ahead of Sheldon Clark, but I could easily see flipping the 2.

[bevinsville_bomber]

No way P-Burg is on top.

Name me one team that's playing as good as P-Burg right now.....

I think as a whole right now the 58th is out playing the 57th.The 15th Region is to close to call.Any of these teams in the top 10 could get on a row and be hard to deal with!!! The time is almost at hand when teams either play or go home.This will be a interesting district and regional tournament.

[catsfan072]

Looks good to me cardsfan!

[Munchkin17]

1. South Floyd-played a tough scheldule and it is starting to pay off, also just won the All A Classic.

2. Paintsville-game Sf all they wanted in the All A, have beaten some really good teams but also lost to some weak teams.

3. Prestonsburg-Playing very good as of late, but still havent won enough to make up for some early seasons loses they have had.

4. Belfry-Very good team that is loaded with talent, but at the same time they are very inconsistent. In my eyes the bad lose to East Ridge droped them a few spots

5. Pike Central-They have the best player in the region in Brad Lowe and will competitive in every game they play.

6. Johnson Central-Could be Top 3 in the region if they get it all together but they are only a average team right now. Have won some impressive games, but also lost quite a few 2.

7. Magoffin Co.-Have played with every team they have played this year. Upset a very good Paintsville team at Paintsville. Loaded with talent and are not a easy win for anyone.

8. Lawrence Co.-Dont know alot about them, but do know they play in a very tough 57th district, and have had some good wins over some good teams but some even worse loses over some teams they shouldnt get beat by.

9. Phelps- are a dangerous team that can cause some teams problems when they get completely healthy. They had a good showing in the All A against Shelby Valley.

10. Sheldon Clark- Have the talent to beat anyone in the region, but cant get it together to lose so. They lost in the first round on the All A to Allen Central which droped them even more. They are still a tough team to play though, especially if they start playing as a team and using there talent.
right on

[jayblackcat2006]

I do agree that Belfry, P-burg, and South Floyd are at the top. Also, it seems that the 57th District is beating each other down, so the opportunistic 58th District comes in and just knocks them out. I think ultimately the Regional Championship will fall somewhere in the 58th, and more than likely it will go to South Floyd or Prestonsburg.

This is how they stack up right now but i believe in the end the winner of the 15th will be whoever doesn't have a OFF NIGHT...............They all are pretty even right now
You're joking right? Prestonsburg 7th? They have beaten every team ahead of them except Lawrence and Belfry, but that's because P-burg hasn't played them yet.

How can you rank JC at #3 when they split with SC on the season.Lawerence Co. is not a #5 team.They lost to SC and SC is only 8-11 so fsr this year.You have some kind of wacky rating system!!!!:lol:

[cybaxter]

Might as well of upset them at mc if it wasnt for a couple guys wearing stripes.

Thats your opinion I suppose.. But still Paintsville won. There was NO upset, home or away.

[coacher_06]

I could care less who is ranked 1st or last all that matters is who wins it all in March. Just my opinion.

[biggun.7.06]

Now come on JC had a bad night against LC and they are defently the #3 team if not the #2 team they are very good.

[coacher_06]

Who cares about rankings. All that matters is on top and heads to the state tourney in march.

[BlackcatAlum]

Well i have somthing to say about Belfry they have only beaten 3 teams worth bragging about and thats Perry co.(got really lucky) and Morgon co. and Pike central.
This team is nothing without matt maynard they only beat Piarst by 21 in belfry! Pburg, SF's JV's could beat piarist varsity ! This team has had a softer schedule than 70% of the rest of the region! But i'll still give them 1 on my list due to there wins and losses !

1.)Belfry(just b/c of record)
2.)Prestonsburg
3.)Paintsville
4.)Pike Central
5.)South Floyd
6.)Johnson Central
7.)Phelps
8.)Shelby Valley
9.)Lawrence Co.
10.)Betsy Layne(Underrated team)
11.)Sheldon Clark
12.)East Ridge
13.)Magoffin Co.
14.)Pikeville
15.)Allen Central
16.)Piarist
17.)David School

Belfry got really lucky against Perry Central???? They were up 8-10 points the WHOLE GAME...That's funny that you criticize Belfry's schedule...when you guys only have TWO quality wins...Johnson Central and Pike Central..but even the Pike Central game can't be counted because Brad Lowe and his 30ppg didn't play but about two or three possessions...Belfry BEAT Morgan...PBurg didn't...Belfry played Piarist without Maynard(21ppg) AND Case(20ppg).So it basically WAS Belfry's JV plus three. Better be careful Blackcat student when comparing things...Pburg IS good...and they are playing well right now...but you have made some bold statements in your post that I don't think hold water upon further review.

[Hoops Lover]

One other question...how can a 4-12 team be underrated???

I read your post with interest in your analogy of that Pburg only has two quality wins. Lets see, they beat Johnson Central beat by 16, they beat South Floyd by 18, beat Magoffin at Magoffin, beat SC by 10, beat Louisville Holy Cross by 16, beat Wolfe County at WC, and lets speak about thier losses, lost to Morgan in double overtime, lost to June Buchannan by 2, lost to Shelby Valley by 1 @ SV, and concerning the win against PCC, they had two players that stepped up and combined for over 40 points which would not have happened if Brad Lowe was in the game. Oh yes, check out the Cantrell ratings, based on a very intricate computer model that considers schedule, wins, losses, etc. Belpry has one of the best w/l records in the region but still ranked only 5th, I believe thier weak schedule has something to do with it. Just my opinion and observation.

[showstoppers4life]

well if you add up how many points BL has scored and how many points their opponents BL has only been outscored by 10 points they just dont know how to close games out

[BeaverCreek Connection]

Point well taken Showstopper, but the 50point victory over David and the fact that David was on the schedule skewed that a little. But I agree, both BL and Pburg lost some close games that they could and should have won.

[blackcat]

Prestonsburg plays Morgan Co. tonight, this game will help us see where they stand.

[Hoops Lover]

I addressed the win over JC...Holy Cross?? Belfry beat Beth Haven by 15...who beat Holy Cross by 18..come on...look at THEIR record....Wolfe??? look at THEIR record.it's 5-15...as far as the Cantrall Rating...I guess you could make a case for the LIT ratings in which Belfry is a close second to Paintsville...Belfry beat Sheldon Clark by 22 while setting a school record for points scored...Magoffin is 6-12....as far as losses...Belfry lost to Madison Central by 8...a game which the Belfry people will tell you they should have won...Madison Central beat South Laurel and they are 17-5 and ranked in the top 25 in the state. Part of Belfry's weak schedule...Lawrence County...also has beaten Johnson Central...Belfry beat Lawrence by double digits..I SAID that Pburg is a quality that is playing well...just didn't think the comparison on the schedules was very objective..

It's close to call, Belfry and Prestonsburg both have some questionable losses.
