KY High School Sports

As some of you know, I am an assistant basketball coach at Greenup County High School. We lost to Elliott County in the first round of the 16th regional tournament. Timmy Knipp, the leading scorer in the state, dunked one on Michael Gullett of Greenup. I knew when I saw it from the bench that it would be on youtube. Oh well, here it is.

8th grader, Jackson T. Davis, wins high school dunk contest at Lafayette High School in Lexington, KY. The 2009-10 season will be his second on the varsity team, where he has earned a starting position. Jackson is 14 years old and is currently 6'7" (projected to be ~7').
If this was the kid that Gillispie would have offered a scholarship to UK no one would have complained!

Timmy Knipp, the lone holdover from the great Elliott County team that had a great run last year in the Sweet 16, is leading the state in scoring with 35 a game. He will be a prize for a mid major team and his versatility could even push him higher then that. White Men from Kentucky Can Jump!
