Estill County - 2 (2008 & 2009) (That I Know OF)
Raceland 1 (1991)
Paintsville has 14 I believe:

1942, 1944, 1957, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1986, 1989 (State Runner-up), 1990 (State Champs), 2000, 2001.

Correct me if I'm wrong (Which I prolly am.). Some of you "Old Timers" might have a little more info for me..lol. Just going on what I have found.
Perry Central - 1996,1999,2005,2010

If we counted Dilce Combs and MC Napier with them i'd say there would be quite a few more, Napier had some really,really good teams in the 1980's.
Knox Central has 1, 1995.
Pikeville (8)(15th Region)
1991, 1992, 1993, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2005, 2010


These are the ones of which I am aware.
^I'm almost sure they have some prior to that PT.

The Athletic Department does a poor job of recognizing titles. I am gonna check out the banners and see what they have for basketball and football, but I am almost sure they do not represent all of them either. The only the thing I could think of would be that it was not a "regional" title but a "conference" or something title therefore they do not recognize them. I need to do research on the subject. Not sure where to go, possibly the library.

It would be nice if someone could outline the formats in a timeline, as to know when regional titles were first awarded separate from a "conference" or whatever they had back in the day.
Some 15th and 16th Region History
According the KHSAA program from the 2010 State Tournament:


Team (Regional Champions + Prior to 1976 State Tournament Appearances)
(Championships, Runner Ups, Final Fours)

Paintsville (14) (1 Championship, 1 Runner Up, 5 Final Fours):

Region 16 Champions: 1978, 1979 According to OTH 1976, 1977, 1980, 1981 that are missing in the program were awarded to Paintsville. That's 6 16th Region Championships.(1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981)
Region 15 Champions: KHSAA (1989, 1990, 2000, 2001)
OTH (1986 missing from KHSAA)

Regional titles prior to 1976 are not listed, but Paintsville appeared in the State Tournament in 1942, 1957 and there is no information listed for 1944, but OTH listed it, so we will give it to them. 1944.

That would give Paintsville 14: 1942, 1944, 1957, 1976, 1977, 1978 (Final Four), 1979 (Final Four) 1980, 1981, 1986 (Final Four), 1989 (Runner Up), 1990 (State Champions), 2000, 2001.




Pikeville (8) (1 Final Four):

15th Region: 1991, 1992, 1993, 1998, 1999, 2002, 2005, 2010 (Final Four)

Nothing from the KHSAA Books have Pikeville appearing in a State tournament previous to 1976, so if they won a regional championship, they did not advance any further than Sectionals.



Johnson Central (6) (1 Final Four):

16th Region: 1982, 1983
15th Region: 1995, 1996, 2004 (Final Four), 2007

(1994 from the 15th is missing. This could be JC, I have no idea.)
No appearances prior to 1976.


Lawrence County (5) (1 Runner Up, 1 Final Four):


16th Region: 1986, 1995, 2003
15th Region: 2008, 2009 (Runner Up)
No appearances to 1976.


Boyd County (14) (1 Championship, 2 Runner Ups, 6 Final Fours):


15th Region: 1985
16th Region: 1988 (Runner Up), 1990, 1992, 1993 (Final Four), 1994, 1997, 1998 (Runner Up), 1999, 2000 (Final Four), 2001 (State Champions), 2002, 2005 (Final Four), 2006

No appearances prior to 1976.



Ashland Paul Blazer (14) (3 Championships, 2 Runner Ups, 7 Final Fours):

15th Region: 1976, 1978, 1979
16th Region: 2004

And then here we go back into the depths of history, State Tournament appearance prior to 1976: 1940, 1941, 1942 (Runner Up), 1949, 1955, 1958, 1960 (Final Four), 1962, 1965 (Final Four), 1966 (State Champions), 1967 (State Champions), 1968 (State Champions- 3-peat), 1969 (Runner-up), 1975


Greenup County (6) (1 Runner Up, 1 Final Four):

15th Region: 1980, 1982
16th Region: 1996 (Runner Up), 2007, 2008, 2010

No appearance prior to 1976.

Prestonsburg (4) (1 State Championship, 2 Final Fours):

State Tournament Appearances prior to 1976: 1945, 1946, 1947 (Final Four), 1948 (State Champions)



Betsy Layne (1):


State Tournament Appearances prior to 1976: 1950



Jenkins (4) (2 Final Fours)
:

State Tournament Appearances prior to 1976: 1951 (Final Four), 1952, 1953 (Final Four), 1954



Belfry (1):

State Tournament Appearances prior to 1976: 1961



Elkhorn City (1):

15th Region: 1997



Sheldon Clark (1):

15th Region: 2006



Allen Central (1):


15th Region: 2003



Rowan County (2):

15th Region: 1981, 1983




East Carter (2) (1 State Championship, 1 Final Four):

15th Region: 1984 (State Champions)
16th Region: 2009



Russell (2):

16th Region: 1987, 1989



Raceland (1):


16th Region: 1991



Montgomery County (1):


15th Region: 1977





And there is a nice recap that took me an hour and a half to type up.

I would have to rank the programs in the 15th an 16th after all of that:

1. Ashland Paul Blazer
2. Boyd County
3. Paintsville
4. Pikeville
5. Greenup County
6. Lawrence County
7. Johnson Central
8. East Carter
9. Prestonsburg
10. Jenkins

Ashland is a far and away #1. Boyd and Paintsville are very close. Pikeville, Greenup County, Lawrence County, Johnson Central are not very far apart. East Carter has a State Title, but few Regional Titles, same with Prestonsburg. And then Jenkins had a nice run a loooong time ago.

The 15th has 3 State Champions, the 16th has 4.



That was a good afternoon's research. If only I was so inclined with actual studies.
1994 was BL, went to elite 8 that year!
GREAT JOB PT!!!!!

Now where are the links so I can go look also...LOL!!! j/k nice research!
I think Lewis County has 1.
Thanks for the info. PT., Much appreciated.
I think that Shelby County has quite a few.

Added 1985, 1987, 1988 to Paintsville. I've been informed the KHSAA book is kind of inaccurate in what region these teams were in.

When checking this list, do not trust the region in which each team was when they won the region. But, the title still is fairly accurate from what I can tell. If anyone know more, please feel free to add.


That gives Paintsville 17.

This is the most up to date for Paintsville. This will no doubt be a fluid list as new information comes to light.
Middlesboro has 13 regional titles and 6 final four appearances. Not bad for such a small school.
