[13th region hoops]

A lot of people have gone to sleep on Jackson County, because of the player of the year in the 13th, Jordan Fox, graduating, and Isaiah Collier trying to transfer last minute to North, but this is a very good team. With Hammonds(over 23/game) and Lawson(16/game) leading the attack, they're no pushover. They're 4-1 with wins over Johnson Central and Greenup County, and played poorly in their lone defeat, a 6 point loss to Corbin. Predictions had them 10th in the 13th region preseason, and that's too low. They're probably in the top 5 or 6 teams in the region. With Adams and Marsee possibly out, I give the edge to Jackson County, even on the road. If Knox is healthy, it's anybody's game.
