14th Region Semis will NOT be televised
#1
WYMT ran into a few snags and will now only air the Finals of the 14th Region Tourney

somebody is wanting more gate money

After the heat index last night I was REALLY hoping some people would stay home Friday night and watch on TV.

It will almost be unhealthy.

Schools voted on it.

I think I'll listen to semi's on the radio. 5,000 people converging into a gym of 2700 seats is not an appealing scenario.
But I want to add that I think Letcher Central has one of the nicest and prettiest gyms in the mountains. Their entire new campus and facities are top of the line.

They sure did and they voted to play the semis and finals both. Something else must have happened.

We'll all have to tune in on the radio or take a trip to Whitesburg on Friday night.

They voted to play..yes...but not to have it telecast except on Saturday. yes, money does play a part on the host school as well as the shares for each school. WYMT waits until the last minute to make it known. The tourney meeting was held and a Saturday telecast was all that was discussed.
Things have changed..WYMT sees an opportunity to telecast a possible PCC/Cordia vs KCC final.

They voted at the draw for the championship game but WYMT asked for semis and the teams had to vote again and voted yes. I don't know why they aren't having them but I know that Knott had to vote again and majority vote was yes on the semis. I could care less and I'm sure there is a pretty good reason why they ended up not having the games but it is false that the teams voted against the semis or didn't vote at all. The teams voted yes for the semis and the finals but they couldn't televise it.

Games aren't televised and there is no controversy to it...

As a reminder if needed:
Letcher Central will have extra ballgame parking at the Pine Mountain Grill and The Whitesburg Post Office. Shuttle Buses will be running continuously from these locations and will drop you off in front of the school and will take you back to your car after the game. Both are well lit areas.
