Congratulations to Coach Billy Harris and Lincoln County for capturing the championship. Lincoln County utilized pressure defense and a solid offense to go 5-0 for the weekend. Coach Todd Saylor's Stuart Pepper had an excellent tournament run and was 4-1 for the weekend. There were some good teams and excellent individual performances this weekend. Several players on display this weekend will have an opportunity to log varsity minutes this season dispite their relative youth.
A special thanks to Ken Farley and the Kentucky Basketball Academy staff for the hospitality extended me during this event.
