A little less than 20 minutes from the tip of Christian County vs Newport. It will be interesting to see how Newport handles this game. Certainly they aren't sneaking up on anyone here, having just beaten the defending state champions by 26 points in the 9th Region Final. Certainly, Newport has the talent to be successful here at Rupp, but Christian County has the experience, having been here last season and giving Holmes its toughest test here last year until the final against Louisville Central.
On a side note, it was odd to look at the PNC/KHSAA Sweet 16 program for the 9th Region and not see Simon Kenton listed as the last team to win a State title. It now reads Holmes across the board. Hopefully the Wildcats can make a run at having it read Newport when the tournament tips off in 2011.
