High School Basketball

All-star teams but no all-star game. Ohio-Kentucky boys’ and girls’ rosters revealed.

The BSN Sports Ohio-Kentucky All-Star Game has announced its Kentucky and Ohio boys’ and girls’ basketball rosters even though the event itself has been canceled due to the coronavirus.

Henry Clay’s Marques Warrick, Tates Creek’s Amari Taylor and Bourbon County’s Amirion Joyce were among the 15 Kentucky senior boys’ players to earn invitations. Scott County’s Malea Williams was the only Central Kentucky senior to make the girls’ team’s 15 player roster.

A tradition since 1992, the 29th annual Ohio-Kentucky game had been scheduled for April 11 at Thomas More University in Crestview Hills.

Another all-star event, the Kentucky Association of Basketball Coaches’ Kentucky/Indiana All-Star Series, has yet to make any updates to its plans for respective boys’ and girls’ games in Georgetown on June 5 and Indianapolis on June 6. Rosters for those teams have not been announced.

Coaching the boys’ game against Ohio would have been Bardstown’s James “Boo” Brewer, assisted by Madisonville’s Matt Beshear and Tates Creek’s Jarrod Gay. For the girls’ Sacred Heart’s Donna Moir would be supported by Collins’ Jeff Rogers and South Laurel’s Chris Souder.
