I think it boils down to this... Teams not from Eastern Kentucky aren’t use to playing physical. When you go to state tournament, the teams play more physical, the refs allow it. Refs in eastern Kentucky don’t. I think Bryan Station is use to playing without “picky calls” whereas Hazard would feel the refs was letting it be “out of control” if Hazard was playing at Bryan Station. The t’s deserved to be called. But I think overall, both teams are use to a different way of playing and being allowed to play therefore they think they are cheated when they come to a different part of the state in which they originate and the calls aren’t the same. Ball is played different in eastern Kentucky and Lexington area. Hence, is why eastern Kentucky teams don’t compete good at the state tournament level.
