[Colonel Kill]

I think this SV team is definately one of the greatest teams to play basketball in the mountains. I also have to agree with a couple of other statements made that there are a couple of teams above them. I have nothing to do with either of these schools but have been to many games and state tourny's in my lifetime. Of the teams I have personally watched, I would rank Ritchie Farmer's Clay County Tigers the best mountain team. Back in the day the Wayne Supply/WYMT tourny was unofficially known as the Clay County Classic. This team was a perminent fixture in the Sweet 16 and always competed for the title. Next I would go with 96-98 Paintsville Tigers that won a state title and runner-up in another. A very close second would be the SV Wildcats and all their great accomplishments the past four years.
