March Madness is almost upon us. And there's nothing bigger in high school sports in the bluegrass than the KHSAA Boys Sweet 16.... "The Greatest Show in Hoops"

But there are some schools across the state that have never made an apperance in the Sweet 16.

Since my home region is the 15th, I'll start. But let's keep in mind ACTIVE schools. If you want to list schools that have been closed down or consolidated, that is good to. But please label them accordingly.


15th Region (ACTIVE)
Pike County Central

15th Region Teams with a State Championship

Paintsville - 1996
Inez - 1941 & 1954

You forgot Meade Memorial in the "defunct" category Pulp....I think they had 3 or 4 regional championships as well.

I can also think of Inez, Garrett, Maytown, McDowell, Wayland, and Martin, and Wheelwright that could be added to the defunct list too. I'm pretty sure some of those schools have been to the Sweet 16 as well.
