The ‘26 region seems to be shaping up as a battle of Perry, Letcher and Hazard for the title and honor of playing at Rupp in March.

That's a huge step up for a team that missed the regional last year. The region isn't very deep past Hazard and Perry though.

With the addition of Hayes, successful surgery of Boggs, continued improvement from the Delaney brothers Letcher Central will be much improved. PCC and Hazard will be the favorites, but I expect LCC to be right there come March.
