Fri, 23 Oct 2009 13:25:45 GMT http://www.wkyt.com/blogs/theballreport/65766752.html 2009-10-23T13:25:45Z http://www.wkyt.com/blogs/theballreport/63518632.html This time of the year many people are curious about which high school football team is the best in Kentucky. While I have seen many of the Lexington teams, I have not seen some of the other statewide contenders. However, like anyone, I can certainly offer an opinion on the teams I have seen and am familiar with so far this year.

The “SBR” was begun back in 2003 with the intention of spotlighting high school student athletes primarily representing all sports and activities sanctioned by the KHSAA.

Fucci is a fan of all sports and is a former high school Mr. Basketball in Kentucky. He has a love for high school sports that is hard to match at any level.

The Horsemen knocked off #2 Wilkes Barre Scranton at Rupp Arena 63-56. The upset was significant due in part to the excellent play of former Kentucky high school football players.

Not only was the Championship Final an instant classic by going into double overtime, the coaches at Holmes and Louisville Central displayed an attitude depicting all that high school sports are supposed to be about.

For the first time in a very long time a team from Eastern Kentucky could realistically take home the big trophy on Saturday night at Rupp Arena.

All games are scheduled at E.A Diddle Arena on the campus of Western Kentucky University. Here are some random thoughts about the tourney.

Coach Chris O’hearn and the Royals are trying to do something that hasn’t been done in a long time in Kentucky high school basketball.
