Thoughts: This field is the same as usual with one exception. Fort Wayne Blackhawk is coming down to participate in the tournament and the probable championship of Blackhawk vs. Barr-Reeve is a really good game that will be a test for both teams. The first round game between South Knox and Barr-Reeve is going to be one of the best games of the tournament. Loogootee and Pike Central are always solid teams and only Clay City is not going to be all that great this year. Should be another really good tournament as usual down at North Daviess.
