Lyon County junior Travis Perry definitely wants to be ready for a Jan. 7 showdown with North Laurel — and UK commit Reed Sheppard — at the Lexington Catholic Holiday Classic.
North Laurel won the 13th Region last year. Lyon County won the 2nd Region championship last year. Both teams return the majority of their players.
“That’s definitely a big game for us. We should both be top 10 teams at worst,” Perry said. “It will be a good matchup playing against Reed and Ryan (Davidson).”
“It definitely will be a game with a lot of attention. I imagine it will be a sold out game and should be a lot of fun. I know we will have a good crowd.”
“Both of us are fast-paced teams who like to get up a lot of shots that people like to see. We both want to shoot 3’s and play fast break basketball.”
