13th Region and Mountain Basketball Trivia

  And how about this for a run of excellence? Clay won 7 straight regions from 84-90, then after Corbin won in ‘91, won again in ‘92.  During that stretch they never lost a home game, and got as high as third nationally in the USA Today rankings (in 1988).  Here’s how those seasons went.
  84-Elite Eight, lost to MC Napier
  85-one-point loss to Hopkinsville in state finals.
  86-Four-point loss in first round to eventual champion Pulaski Co.
  87-state champion.
  88-state runner-up to Ballard.
  89-lost in first-round to Marshall Co., entered tournament unbeaten.
  90-final four, lost to champion Fairdale.
  92-Final Four, lost to Lex. Catholic.

  That’s a run that will be hard to ever duplicate.

That's right, Van .  '87 was the OT game.  Damned Allan Houston.   I think the '88 team was probably better than the championship team the season before. If I recall the '88 team had a close call against Knox Central in the regional final .
