Just wait until they show up for the live action. Then come back and comment. Gotta be something in the water down that way!

The khsaa ruled that LC players left the dugout in the pike central assult case, which they did by rule that's a violation, no lc players where suspended, lc has not had a varsity baseball player suspended since feltner has been head coach. Khsaa also ruled that pc players left the dugout and their position on the field, that is a violation by rule, pc also had a player suspended, and later arrested for his action. The lc player involved went on to win mvp in the regional tournament.

The bottom line LC came to the 15th region in 2006 I beleave, since then they have dominated the district they play in and been the most successful team in the regional tournament. Has that upset the traditional 15th region powers, yes it has. The move to the 60th did not go over well with the 3 other schools in that district. Up till then belfry and pike central were just about guaranteed a spot in regional tournament, in baseball and basketball, those days are over and some people are just having a problem with that.

Nice Job” LCHSbulldogsalum” it only took you one post to respond to a personal attack. You must be one of the “high achievers “or drink bottle water from LC. However, I thought my post was going to be too complex for you so I will dummy it down for you some. I was talking about character and class of a fan base / program. If an incident or mistake happens that my effect the outcome of game and the program does not address the incident it creates the appearance of poor sportsmanship (out of control fans / programs). In little over a year the LC football team & LC baseball team had been sanction by KHSAA and add in the “foul” incident and it appears LC has a pattern of poor sportsmanship and is in serious ethical trouble. This can be seen in how you belittle and support the negative behavior. I do believe LC is the team to beat in the 15th but at what cost?

I was at the lc and jc game, to be honest I don't keep track of every foul a player gets. What I do know and what I saw is this. The score keeper for the home team is the official score keeper, he was sitting at the score table, the score keeper for jc was sitting on the bench with the jc coaches. When the official makes the call he comes over to the score table and relates the foul, player number, and team to the official score keeper, at no time do they go over to the teams bench to try to find their score keeper. It is the responsibility of the visting team to check with the official score keeper on fouls. With that being said from the video it is impossable to tell what the officials are relating to the score keeper, as they always have their backs to the camera. To be fair by the reactions of the player, and coaches from jc clearly thought it was the fourth foul. But it is the responsibility of their score keeper to make sure he has the same information as the the official score keeper.

LC dominates the 15th, come on what have they won anything, I don't know anything about the baseball team but as long as Pikeville and Johnson Central are around no way they can win the region in that sport, in football you have to contend with Belfry enough said, in basketball this is their only and best chance to win something in this region if they don't then this years LC team will go down as one of the best in the 15th to not win it, but if they do win then what about next year the main core of their team will be gone and they won't be as good, so if people in Lawrence Co think they will have a Johnson Central or Shelby Valley type dynasty they will be wrong, LC will be a 1 hit wonder a flash in the pan, but they have to win the region to even be noticed, so hope the pressure doesn't get to them cause they know that the target is on them this year...

So, four times since 2006 and during that same time span, Pikeville has won it twice and JC twice. So, you were saying.....nicker:

For those discussing the Tyler Pack 4 vs. 5 fouls, after reviewing game film here is a breakdown: FOUL #1 7:42 in 1st, FOUL #2 4:19 in 3rd, FOUL #3 7:35 in 4th and FOUL #4 1:24 in 4th. Foul #5 never happened. If Lawrence County can get by Pikeville and the Magoffin County vs. South Floyd winner and Johnson Central can get by East Ridge then Tuesday night could be something special. Johnson Central could make history with 5 championships in a row and Lawrence County will have a chance to go to their first state tournament where the don't have to pay admission. Side note to the Bulldogs, this is the year, if not now, never.

Ok you answered about baseball what about football and basketball...

[McLovin]

I would be fine with a Johnson Central, Floyd Central, Pike Central alternation. LC and JC have a haul to get to the expo. Im a Valley ER Pikeville fan in that order. But would sacrifice home venue to get it out of the expo and make it reasonable for all fans and teams, affordability, and improve the atmosphere. For Pike County teams make Pike Central the venue but allow the other Pike schools take turns hosting at that venue if they were willing.

I agree with you!

[LCHSbulldogsalum]

Ok you answered about baseball what about football and basketball...

First off, you were the one that made the bold statement that the LC baseball team couldn't compete with Pikeville and JC. Well, they not only have but have done much better.

Secondly, as for football, nobody is beating Belfry. They own this region. I repeat, NOBODY.

Lastly, as for basketball, LC has competing in periodic occasions. I believe about 7-8 years ago they made it to either the semi-finals or finals against Shelby Valley when they had the Justice kid. Then this group has done well, taking a step closer and closer each year. After this year, who knows. But LC has never been a basketball school. So why expect championships in it? Baseball and football have been what the school hangs its hat on. Hopefully the basketball team can add to the trophy case of 15th region titles this year. :Clap:

[dawg fan]

1st of all there is no 15th region in football that being said they have been the regional runner to belfry the last two years.
2nd I was referring to the baseball team dominates the region.
3. You are limiting your post to the 3 main male sports but the tennis team has also won 4 or 5 regional titles in a row for Lawrence County.

Best of luck to all the kids playing in the tournament this year.

Since joining the 15th region in 2006 Lawrence County baseball in the 15th region has a record of 142 wins and 37 losses. If That is not dominating I don't what is.

[Wyatt Earp]

Floyd Central will seat about 2200.

I'm going to have to prove you wrong on 1 thing you are right they did make it to the semis but they didn't play SV they lost to Betsy Layne oh yea the score was BL 64 LC 58, so you better check your history some bub...

Since joining the 15th region they have only won 4 District tourneys.. Including the ones since joining the 60th so if they were still in the 57th they may only still have 2..

[Baseball Man]

The only reason Lawrence Co. is in the 15th Region is because they couldn't beat BOYD Co. Except for 1 or 2 times, Boyd Co. owned the Dawgs.

After this season they won't be eel even in basketball or football...

The year before that they lost to svhs in the 15th region finals.

Don't know if that is reason or not, think it had more to do with all the schools consolidateing, in pike and floyd countys. But boyd county has a very good baseball program, as well as greenup, russell, raceland, east carter all have good programs.

[Bigbluefanatic]

They weren't in the 15th in 2005 gosh check your history...

[Bigbluefanatic]

The year before that they lost to svhs in the 15th region finals.

And in that year they lost in the semis of that 16th to Rowan Co so no game with Shelby Valley bub, like I said check your history and you are a LC fan lol hilarious don't even know anything about your schools history wow lol...

[More Cowbell]

Gotta step in here and say dawg fan is correct...

In 2009 Lawrence made it to the 15th region finals, losing to Shelby Valley 70-46.

[Gsjhe]

Yes he is, just had his years wrong. They didn't play Betsy Layne that year. They beat Prestonsburg in the semifinal and phelps in the first round.

[Bigbluefanatic]

Yes he is, just had his years wrong. They didn't play Betsy Layne that year. They beat Prestonsburg in the semifinal and phelps in the first round.

No I don't have my years wrong and yes they did play Betsy Layne in 2006 and lost, maybe you guys should check out the Kentucky High School Basketball Encyclopedia, I'm sure it's not wrong, and yea they did play SV and lost in the finals of 2009 70-46, but the next year they played East Ridge and then lost to BL...

[LCHSbulldogsalum]

I'm going to have to prove you wrong on 1 thing you are right they did make it to the semis but they didn't play SV they lost to Betsy Layne oh yea the score was BL 64 LC 58, so you better check your history some bub...

Maybe you should do a little research before giving "history lessons"??? nicker:

In 2008-09 season, Shelby Valley beat LC in the 15th Region CHAMPIONSHIP game.

Dawg fan did have his years correct. He originally said Lawrence made it to the finals 7 years ago against Shelby Valley, which they did in 2009. When it was pointed out that Lawrence lost to Betsy Layne 64-58 (this happened in 2010), he correctly stated that it was the year before when LC played in the finals.

If anyone has any questions about this, just go to khsaa.org and you can see the results of every 15th region tournament going back to 1999.

[More Cowbell]

Nope, this is wrong. Lawrence didn't play Betsy Layne in 2006, not even in the regular season. LC was eliminated from the postseason in the first round of the 57th district that year by Magoffin.

Again, you can view all the season results for all the teams over at khsaa.org. Hope this clears up any confusion.

[Gsjhe]

Lawrence county did not play Betsy Layne in 06. When I said you got your years wrong I meant I thought you may be referring to the 09/10 season which yes your right they played East Ridge and lost to Betsy Layne. My mistake. But no they did not play Betsy Layne in 06. The Bulldogs didn't make the Regional in 06, 07, or 08.
