Johnson Central is 26-6. 57th District Champion.
Pikeville is 20-8. 59th District Runner-Up.
These teams played on 1/14, JC won 57-51 & on 2/4, JC won 59-54.
The game is scheduled for an 8:00PM start time from the Expo Center in Pikeville.
There are NO advanced ticket sales or reserved seating at the Expo, all seating is first come first serve. Tickets are $7.
Pikeville Matches up well with JC, but I believe that JC is playing their best BBall right now so I believe that Rice and Co. will take care of business at the EXPO Tuesday.
I predict:
JC- 63
Pikeville-49
Picking Pikeville by 2 in a great game
52-50
I haven't attended a regional game in the Expo Center for a few years. When did they do away with reserved seating? It did get to be a headache sometimes when you went to watch your team play in the second game and someone from the first game was sitting in your seat. Just wondering...

I got to see this game and it was a great game both teams played their hearts out. Great season for pikeville and congrats to JC
Unless you were there you have no idea what a great game this was,both teams played hard and it's a shame this was a opening round game. Atmosphere was like a championship game. Hold your heads high Panthers. Congrats to JC
Amazing game, I'm glad that I stayed to watch it!
The crew on WSIP did a great job calling the game....
Watching the video of the last shot by JC makes you cringe..... one of those shots you go "No No No No No No No..... YES!!!!!"
a great game wish they all could be like this one
Congrats to the Lady Eagles. Battled back twice late in Regulation & OT.
