I tell (out-of-state) people that Kentucky isn't exactly the part of the South. South of I-64 and west of I-75, yeah, that is pretty much the north end of the Deep South. But north of I-64 and west of I-75 is pretty much Midwest. And everything east of I-75 excepting Campbell and Kenton counties is Appalachia, which along with eastern Tennessee, West Virginia, and western Virginia and North Carolina, is a culture unto itself.
Lyon vs Harlan; WKY vs EKY for all the marbles.

I can’t agree with North Central. It’s too spread out. Covington and Owensboro in the same region?I would say most Kentuckians would agree to this map as being correct as to where they consider where they live, what do y'all think?
"For all the marbles" great antique game my father was really good playing marbles man how times have change
I used to have a little cloth pouch that i kept mine in a few cat eyes and a big steel one i used for the shooter lol long time ago
I grew up just south of BG, and graduated from WKU. That region is considered/called South Central KY.
No! That has my county (Allen) as Western KY. We definitely weren’t. The county next to us (Monroe) shows up on maps as part of Appalachia.How about this one?
When I was in high school (80’s) the Courier Journal did a very interesting article titled “Is Kentucky Southern?”.
The conclusion, was that the dividing line actually cuts through KY, I think with those counties bordering the Ohio River (maybe a few others between Lex and Cincy) not as Southern.
Officials are so predictable.
Lyon County up 36-27 holding for the last 1:30 for the final shot, at about 32 seconds, ref calls a push off to give Harlan the ball and then Harlan hits a three at the end to make it 36-30. Big swing. Could've been an 11 or 12 point halftime lead and now it's six.
Refs will always blow the whistle
- When their whistle hasn't been heard in awhile and stall ball is occurring
- Any type of contesting of a shot on a breakaway (see Samford/Kansas game)
- Call a foul if teams have been aggressive three or four trips down the court- to slow it down
They love momentum calls.

You make make sick with that BS. Live here a while & you'd know how obviously it's not true. You think we know who wins the Ohio or IN state hoops titles?
Lyon County up 4 with 25 seconds left, going to the line. Great game.
Was tied going into fourth.

Glorious game! At the risk of sounding like Bill Walton, it restored my faith in humanity. There were no losers on that floor tonight.
Congrats Lions! Congrats Bears!

Happy to see Western Kentucky get a title. Only Owensboro or Hopkinsville teams usually do this.
Both teams were so good. What a game.
Single A school wins the whole thing.
For those pining for the class system- stick that in your pipe.

Perry in the tournament in general couldn't hit the broad side of a barn door, but completely dominated just the same. Probably 20-25. I would have given the MVP to Noah of Harlan.
I'll grant you Richmond isn't Appalachia, it's not like I-75 is the Berlin Wall or anything. But just down the Interstate, Berea and Renfro Valley certainly are.
Great game. Congratulations to both teams. Lyon had the better overall team. 5 guys who can all dribble and shoot. Can’t double anyone. Allowed Perry to get to play 1 on 1 most of the night and he played his best game of the tourney. Felt like Harlan County had the better player in Noah. He was double and triple teamed the entire game. He has a really good D-1 caliber guard with him but not near the supporting cast of Perry.
As an old 13th region guy, I do hate that Harlan had to play 3 games in a 24 hour span with only 3 hours between press conferences and warmups tonight. It showed in their legs. It’s terrible that every year, the bottom half of the bracket has to play 4 games in 3 days while the top half gets to play 4 in 4. No reason the final shouldn’t be on Sunday or start the tourney earlier in the week to allow both teams to rest before the final.
