Hello,
As the new basketball season approaches; many Kentucky high school girls' basketball teams are gearing up with preseason practices; scrimmages; and conditioning.
I am excited to hear from coaches; players; and fans about what specific preparations are being made this year.
Are there any new training routines; focus areas (like defense / shooting accuracy); or standout players who are making an impression?
How are teams dealing with challenges such as limited gym time; player injuries; or integrating new players?
Let's discuss what we can expect from our favorite teams this season!Thank you

Sounds like you maybe new to the area so I will give you the rundown in my opinion and wait for it to be corrected lol. In the 15th region Pikeville will emerged, in the 14th Knott will run away with the title, and the 13th is a 3 horse field with North Laurel being the fav with KC and SL just behind. Unfortunately this season they will all be nonfactors at the state level.Hello,As the new basketball season approaches; many Kentucky high school girls' basketball teams are gearing up with preseason practices; scrimmages; and conditioning.I am excited to hear from coaches; players; and fans about what specific preparations are being made this year.Are there any new training routines; focus areas (like defense / shooting accuracy); or standout players who are making an impression?How are teams dealing with challenges such as limited gym time; player injuries; or integrating new players?Let's discuss what we can expect from our favorite teams this season!

Could see Pikeville and Knott making deep runs in the All A. Draw will depend on Sweet 16. Johnson Central will be tough in the 15th. Hazard and Leslie can cause problems in the 14th.

Gotta disagree on the 14th, I didn't get to see Leslie in summer but I did see Hazard on 2 occasions plus I have seen some of their girls before and they have zero chance to win any games outside of the 14th, its the weakest region boys and def girls in the state. Just my opinion

15th - JC will be king this year. They play lots of kids and the pressure is suffocating.
I like Pikeville as a close second. They lost lots and new system may take a while.
16th- Ashland loses and they need to look at things. Way too much talent to lose the 16th.
The rest of top teams can be Russell, Raceland, Rowan, Fleming, Boyd or Morgan in any order.

Nobody is a shoe in, in the 14th. The refs play a major role in all the outcomes it seems boys and girls. Some cheat so bad it’s obvious they have been paid off or doing a favor for a certain coach. Just flat out bad. It’s probably all over.

It’s probably all over.I agree, refs are sketchy at best in the 13th,14th, and 15th regions. But my point is the 14th girls are pretty down this year, no one is within 10 points of them even on a bad night.
