2011 Boys 15th Region Championship Game–March 8, 2011
The Shelby Valley Wildcats defeated the Pikeville Panthers 49 to 42 to win the 15th region championship game, on March 8, 2011 at the Eastern Kentucky Expo Center in Pikeville, Ky. This makes the Wildcats 3rd straight 15th region championship title. They had no easy road and fought through powerful teams and criticism, some who thought they couldn’t make it out of the district tournament, never thinking of them going back to the state tournament. Shelby Valley fought through the district beating a powerful East Ridge team in the first round by a close score of 33-32. The Wildcats then went on to face Pikeville in the district championship game but lost a hard fought game 47-53, and the received the runner up in the district, which gave them a pass to the region championship in which they faced more tough teams. First by defeating a powerful Johnson Central team close 50-49 then facing a strong Pike Central team and beating them 58-53 which earned them a trip to the regional championship game, in which they defeated Pikeville 49-42. Shelby Valley, you could argue, was a Cinderella team this year with no one expecting this kind of run for them to win the region, though they are still defending state champions. Shelby Valley is the first district runner-up team to win the 15th region since Johnson Central in the 2005/2006 season. The Wildcats only won district games this season during the post-season tournaments, and they also won the region with a losing record. Pikeville falls to and ends their season at (W-L) 22-8 on the season, 16-4 in the region, and 5-1 in the district. Shelby Valley improve to (W-L) 13-17 on the season, 10-10 in the region, and 2-5 in district. Shelby Valley will now move on to Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky to represent the 15th region in the PNC/KHSAA Boys Sweet Sixteen® Basketball Tournament. The Wildcats will play the Christian County Colonels from the 2nd region who have a season record of (W-L) 21-9 and are ranked at the top in points and wins on the season in their region, the Colonels were also runner-up in their district and made it to the state tournament. The Shelby Valley vs. Christian County game is set to take place on March 16, 2011 at 6:30 PM at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky.
Good Luck Shelby Valley Wildcats!
