Coach Ellis Myles’ team consisted of Christian Cunningham (Scott County), Jordan Green and Trey Grundy (Henry Clay), Chris McCraw (Western), Craig Owens (Trinity), D’Angelo Russell (Central), and Quentin Snider (Ballard).

The Ville 2013 captured the 10th Grade division championship with a 6-0 record. The ville continues their championship ways by capturing their 10th state title. Coach David Levitch’s team consisted of Dominique Hawkins (Madison Central), Darryl Hicks (Trinity), Quan Taylor (Madison Central), Tyler Wesley (Oldham County), Omar Prewitt (Montgomery County), Chris Gillespie (Bourbon County), David Levitch (North Oldham), and Malik Henry (Ballard). Hicks, Hawkins, and Prewitt impressed this weekend.
BA Hoyas were runner-ups in this division and were led by Derek Willis (Bullitt East). Rusty Toutman (Bullitt East) and Demetrius McReynolds (Butler). Jarvis Irby (Christian County) played for Attucks Wolfpack and shot the ball well this weekend.
