I'd probably put Bell second.
I'm curious what kind of season the Clay JV is having. I think they have next year's lineup except for McDaniel. I know that's a big "except" but it's hard for one player to make a huge difference.

The sophomore class in the region isn't that strong. Harlan County wasn't challenged at all in freshmen basketball last year and finished 12-0 without Tyler Miller in JV. I know Clay didn't have McDaniel and South didn't have Baxter, which would make it a lot more competitive. Knox Central didn't have enough to even play freshmen basketball, but they have four sophomores either starting or playing a lot and probably the best freshmen in the region in Marsee (Hill, of Corbin, was pretty solid too when I saw him earlier in the week).
