All-15th Region Team Predictions
As the the Kentucky High School season gets underway this week, Prep Hoops Kentucky makes some All-Region Team predictions. Here, we take a look at the 15th Region:
All 15th Region Team Predictions:
Roger Tackett, Floyd Central/ Guard / 2018
- Tackett helped lead South Floyd to a 21-13 overall record last season, as well as a district championship. He averaged 19 points and 5 rebounds per game while shooting 47% from the field.
Jacob Rice, Johnson Central / Point Guard / 2019
- Johnson Central is now Jacob Rice’s team. After the graduation of Mason Blair and Cole Grace, Rice is the teams returning leading scorer (10 points per game) and will be given more responsibility to lead the team the next two years.
Wyatt Battaile, Pikeville / 6’5 Shooting Guard / 2018
- Before an injurty this summer, Battaille was recieving D-I interest from a number of different programs. Once he’s back 100%, he’ll continue to put teams on notice. He helped lead Pikeville to a 23-9 overall record last season, averaging 20.2 points and 7.4 rebounds per game.
Brady Conn, Floyd Central / Forward / 2019
- Conn averaged 15 points and 13 rebounds for South Floyd last season playing as a sophomore. If he can continue to get those type of numbers, look for South Floyd to be a regional contender.
Jacob Collins, Floyd Central / Guard / 2018
- Like Conn, Collins also averaged 15 points for South Floyd last season. If Collins can improve his 3-point shooting, watch out.
Keep An Eye On:
Trey James, Sheldon Clark / 6’11 Forward, Center / 2021
- (From PHKY contributor Steve Quattrocchi) Legitimately 6’11” and looking like a high major D1 recruit, James is going to be a fixture in Kentucky for the next several seasons. Trey has made a name for himself nationally by performing well at the Crossroads Elite Camp and the CP3 Rising Stars Camp. If voters want to put in the most talented player in the region for an all-region selection, James is your man.
