My apologies

Had a very busy weekend, so I didn't get to update much, or at all. Here's a look at some of the more telling games from Friday and then Saturday...

Friday
--The 11th Region is going to be captivating all season long. Perhaps the regional champion is already decided, but nevertheless, what fun it has been so far. From Friday night, Lexington Catholic made a statement over defending regional champion Madison Central, Lafayette rebounded from a tough loss to Dunbar with a big win over Henry Clay and Bryan Station hit triple digits against Dunbar. Oh, and Tates Creek walloped 2nd region power University Heights.

--And while the 11th region flexes its muscle, the 7th region isn't looking that bad either. Eastern made things interesting before losing to Ballard by 5. Also, Manual continued their hot play with a nice win over North Hardin.

--Paducah Tilghman continues to struggle in the early season, as the Blue Tornado dropped their second regional game already, this one to Graves County.

--Upset in the 16th? Ashland Blazer fell to rival Boyd County by 2 points. Who is going to challenge Russell in this thing?

--E-Town as state champs? Woe is me. The Panthers lose again, this time to Central Hardin.

Saturday
--Three words: George Rogers Clark. The Cardinals make a huge statement with a win over another set of Cardinals...no, not Scott County, but South Laurel. This is quite a win for the 10th region, considering that GRC is not regarded as the region's top team (that would be Mason County), and yet they can defeat the state's #2 team. Don't expect South Laurel to be down for long though.

--Speaking of Scott County, the Cardinals slid by University Heights by 15 points, this only a day after Tates Creek pounded Heights by 27.

--And speaking of Tates Creek, the Commodores looked mighty impressive in a big win over Owensboro in Bourbon County's Kentucky Bank Shootout. So far, this basketball season is looking a lot like football season: Louisville and Lexington domination over everyone else.

--Owensboro Catholic went down hard to Webster County; it looks like a serious rebuilding year for the Aces.

New rankings to debut this afternoon.
