Hazard should not be that high.

Can you explain why, you think that?
There really isn't much difference in the top 2 teams but it is SV at the moment.
This looks pretty good to me. I still believe Corbin is a better team than Hazard but Hazard does deserve to be ranked higher at the moment because of their success in the All "A".

I agree.
I would switch Corbin and Haz, but the rest looks good.
Does anyone think that Prestonsburg deserves to be in the top 20?
4 of their 8 losses are to top 20 teams in the state by Courier-Journal's Litkenhous (#1 Scott County, #8 Shelby Valley, #19 Highlands, #20 Perry Co. Central). They have lost twice to Johnson Central, once to Pikeville on a last second shot, but later defeated Pikeville on a neutral floor by 19, and lost to June Buchanan in a game where they had a 9-point lead with just over 3 minutes remaining.
Prestonsburg has a 17-point win over Betsy Layne, 19-point win over Pikeville, and wins over Allen Central, Magoffin County, Howell Central, MO; Phelps, South Floyd twice, Sheldon Clark twice, and Tolsia, WV.
Wins are not that impressive, but they are defeating teams they are supposed to.
Prestonsburg is 11-8 on the season, 9-4 in the region, and 5-0 in the district.
Thoughts?

I can see them being close but I don't really see any teams that they absolutely should be ranked ahead of in this poll.
I dont think hazard should be in fron of corbin

You have made some good points as to why they might be ranked, the district and region records are good, they have lost a few close ones, but
I don't know enough about Bath Cty,Fairview,Middlesboro and Pineville to know if they should knock one of those teams out. I do think they are close
to Pikeville.
How does Morgan County fall out of the top 20 after only a 11 point loss to Elliott and a 5 point win at Lewis.
