2017 Class A State Tournament

[Tnfootball1234]

looks like Moore County and Forrest will be taking on Summertown and Perry County for the chance to advance to the State Go district 9A

The girl from perry county can't remember name can fill it up when she gets going had 39 vs Loretto last night

I wouldn't totally discount Oneida out.....that is a team that (when they playing well) beat Clarkrange in the regular season.  They probably have no business making it there, but anything is possible, right?

Her name is Chynia Brooks (spelling?)... I believe I saw a post where she had 39 points and 15 rebounds, and had several steals as well... I watched her put up 37 I believe, in the abdiatrict tournament game last week.. Very active and very athletic.

I am going to take Meigs County instead of Northview Academy and keep my other 7 as originally picked...

 

Meigs, Middleton, South Greene, Pickett, Clarkrange, Trinity, Moore County, Forrest

[tradertwo]

Surviving so far are: 

 

Region 1:  Hampton, Northview Academy**, South Greene**, Cloudland

Region 2: Meigs County, Oneida, Grace Christian, Wartburg

Region 3: CSAS, Silverdale, Van Buren Co., Marion County

Region 4: Watertown, Pickett County**, Clarkrange**, Goodpasture

Region 5: Huntland**, Moore County**, Forrest, Community

Region 6: Perry County, Richland, Loretto, Summertown

Region 7: Dresden and Huntingdon

Region 8: Middleton**, Trinity Christian**, Decatur Co-Riverside, Memphis Mitchell

 

I put ** beside the 8 that I think will be playing in Murfreesboro. What is everyone else's thoughts? 

 

In regions 7/8 I thought that earlier in the season region 7 would send two teams...with Huntingdon's run to the finals and Burkley making adjustments to improve his Middleton squad, you just may be right. No disrespect intended, but I think that either of the reg. 8 teams is the favorite vs. Huntingdon, and if Middleton/Dresden are paired that Middleton comes out on top.

   Middleton has recently began situational subbing on offense/defense to keep the players fresh and out of foul trouble...you'd better have some slick guards and a deep bench to handle their intense pressure, and two or three bigs in the post.

   TCA has been portrayed as a one woman show...not so. Their point is the fuel that runs the engine, but the supporting cast can play too. Post players aren't spectacular but are steady, and if you leave #23 open she'll make you pay. TCA/Middleton will be a toss up...TCA was the better team early and led the entire game in dist. before the Tigers' pressure wore them down, and they now have faced the "new" scheme by Middleton. The Lady Tigers' guards shot the ball very well in that game, but #20 didn't play well, so the next chapter should be great.

   Against the Region 7 opponents, I think that Middleton poses the bigger problem of the two...athletes all over (even on the bench) and three formidable post players are hard to account for in a one game setting. I think that TCA wins a close one to send Middleton on the road, but I think that the best chance to get to state for region 7 goes through Trinity.

Middleton and TCA going to state

I'll say it for you. They didn't stop Lytle or the Lee sisters last night. On to the finals then substate

Mitchell should have beat them...TCA can't hang with a athletic team like Mitchell

[Intense]

Mitchell should have beat them...TCA can't hang with a athletic team like Mitchell

So what was last night Einstein? 2-1 vs an athletic Middleton team and also beat a pretty athletic Gibson County and Westview team. And if you're keeping count Power Center was athletic! They were horrible basketball players but athletic.

from regions 5 & 6  there are Forrest, Moore Co, Perry Co., and Summertown
