Knott county got spanked on their home court. Harlan county is a level higher than any 14th region team or many other teams across the state. Here is what I saw with this one. Harlan county is very confident and play extremely hard. They aren't afraid to be physical and aggressive. They have two potential D1 players, but share the ball like they don't have any. Very well coached and will make a run at the state level. As for Knott, the only player that seemed to be up to the challenge last night was Higgins. The other four starters did not come to play, which is sad because they were on their home court. If Knott plays intimidated like they did last night, then it will be a long season for them. Coach Honeycutt is a really good coach and I think you will see some changes to this team.

I don't think it means a lot for Knott. Harlan County blew them out in the WYMT last year, then they won 18 straight before losing in the state tournament. They won't play anyone like that in the 14th this year unless Perry has improved a lot.
