  1. Any other scores? I heard Cheatham lost but did not see score. Harpeth beat Father Ryan 55 50 in OT, led most of way until 4th then buzzer beater to tie. Don’t think anyone had them winning going in but they looked good. Good job to both. CWHS and FRHS are usually pretty tough to beat. Those two games looked like the toughest matchups for game one of season.
  2. Cheatham definitely played the role of spoiler this year. Hard to fathom a team with more wins in the district tournament than they had all year in district. The matchups now definitely do not look good in regional. I don’t see any of those games even being close now. Tournaments have a way of totally ruining a positive season with a bad game or two. GB and sycamore should be interesting. It will definitely be a disadvantage to the loser of that one in regions. Strange year for sure. 7:5 and 6:6 matchup for 1st and 2nd. 3rd goes to a 1:11 and fourth to 11:1 teams. Not to mention the elimination of both white house teams. As crazy as this has been i would not be surprised to actally see all 4 teams continue the insanity and win their games in regions..... ok that was a lie, i would still be surprised. But given this district tournament, who knows?;)
  3. Letting this sink in.... with heritage out, the number 2 spot or who knows number 1 spot will be between GB, which i think have the players, but have been average at best through the season and CC/Westm .... the two bottom teams this season...... boy that part of the bracket got easier quick....if westm wins their game then two of the 4 top tournament teams have 3 COMBINED district wins during the season. Let that sink in a little more. LMAO
  4. Could be tough for either syc or wh if they play a tight game, then turn around and play harp the next night. Players will either get and stay hot or wear down....with that being said either could blow out an overrested harp team that will have been off for over a week. Not sure which is better.. tired but hot or rested and off sync. Knowing harp, it will be down to the wire though.
  5. Well, did not see that one coming. I thought that westm would be the contender for the upset since it is at their place... still lots of upset chances to be had, just would not have guessed CC. Sycamore is also one that likes to upset, no matter their season record, they always cause someone trouble in tourn. I guess everyone better have their A game on and don’t let off. It is really hard to beat a team 2:3 or 3:3 times. What worked before may not work now against better game plans and players heating up. Health may also play into things as many schools are getting hit with viruses. Bery interesting start to things.
  6. Not totally shocked on the GB heritage game. Thought gb could be a spoiler. Score is a shocker though. Bomber is right the wh harp game was a good one. Harp seems to find was to win tight games rather grinding or just holding pace. Anyone hear cheath v sycamore outcome? Rival game could spark better play from both. We will see next week if any new surprises to finish reg season. Agree officials have been awful this year. Wh harp game had a stretch that looked like refs were going to foul key players for both teams out. Though benches played key rolls for both.
  7. Definitely a shocker with that loss. Looking at scores, Cheatham gave them (WH) a close one right before that. Westmoreland is better than their record. They could capitalize if you give them hope. Sycamore and Cheatham should be fun. Records go out the window when close rival. Same would go for WH vs WHH if they see each other in tournament. It would be nice if all WH players were available. I guess this point of season is where depth comes in as injuries and illness take a toll. I guess it should open eyes for tournament that nobody should get overlooked.
  8. Bballin great stats. Where did you find those? Tennessean used to have some stats years ago but they are useless now. I don’t think a lot of coaches actually have someone generate in depth stats. I would think the mvp would be from the top 2 teams. Right now both the top 2 teams have some strong players. 10 for harpeth would probably my pick over 14. Heritage spreads the scoring around so much it is hard to pick 1 player. If you take anyone from outside top 2 teams then 5 for wh and even sycamore junior guard, can’t remember number, really carry them. Unfortunately, don’t see any from the district that i think would ever necessitate a double team which is how i would define as a true mvp. Your guess is good as mine on who will get it.
  9. Not sure how 11 did against GB. It looked like he was sent to trainer during WHH game, so there was probably something going on there. He is one that can hit 3’s and occasionally drive in. 10 looks better against m2m where he can make someone overcommit. 14 can get hot for 3 and jumpers at any given time but probably needs more quick rests to stay fresh. Heritage looks very well rounded. Bigs guys varried load early then guards in second half.... looking forwrd to see if WH can take care of home court friday vs harp. Also looking to see how sycamore and GB finish out. Those two may surprise. I think next year westm and syc will be totally different as they are both young looking. Harp and Heritage will be retooling with several players being seniors but that has been case for several years and they seem to always have a good next up work ethic...once tourn starts anything goes, just depends on match ups. Rivalries and distance may prove the difference and could lead to upsets.
  10. Not to restate the obvious, but the only team right now that can make the argument that Harp is number 1 or 2 would be Heritage. They are the ONLY one in district to beat them so far. Scores mean nothing really, just W and L. Not sure how many of those games where comebacks or hang ons but they got the wins. Winning 90% of district games is pretty clear compared to 55.6%. Even if you played them close, beating them now would be an upset. Don’t get me wrong, district is pretty balanced and they are beatable.... but dang, if 9 wins 1 loss is not clear to those with almost as many losses as wins then not sure what is. Like i said, beatable, but you gotta give the 2 at top some props. They all play each other. Win by 50 or win by 1 in 4 ot’s still goes as a win. Close wins actually make you stronger when you don’t doubt the outcome as much. Sorry to go on.... but it seems pretty CLEAR 9:1 and 7:2 are the tops so far. I like the enthusiasm for your home teams, but dannnngggg 9:1 and 7:2 vs 55% and below
  11. Went to Heritage vs Harpeth game. Great game by both. Lead changes throughout and both teams played hard. Heritage really spread out scoring first half while Harpeth was mostly #10. Second half was good game. Bench for both teams played well, no noticeable dropoff when they went in. Both teams could have played better but was still a good game. Very evenly matched. Heritage would get nod for individual size and ability but Harpeth made up for with hustle. Stand by my previous statement that these are clearly 1&2 and could go either way. Tournament in westmoreland may favor Heritage due to distance. Game was fun to watch. Officials poor as usual for both sides but that is the norm this year. Should be fun finish and tight tournament. Expect surprises from the middle of the pack.
  12. Just facts from this season: Heritage beat Harpeth 1st meeting, second meeting will probably decide the tie if it comes to it. Both teams have flaws and can be beaten based on how players are shooting and coaching strategy. The bench and fresh legs may be decider. Whoever tries to keep starters out too long will pay probably unless get to huge early lead. The middle 3 WH, Syc, GB will be lucky or unlucky on which side of bracket they end up in. They seem very evenly matched. In my opinion GB has underachieved based on players, not sure on coaching. Syc and WH will soley depend on which players get hot shooting, favor WH of the two. The bottom 2 can be the spoilers, especially Westmoreland. Distance traveled to the game can make a difference as well as home court. Cheatham is getting first real test for coach, only avg players and no stars to lean on. Same can be said for all teams. There is not a single player on any team this years that requires doubling up , a simple “don’t leave them wide open” is all required. Good luck all, tournament should be fun with lots of close games
  13. True basketball is a tournament sport. As I stated before, district is very evenly matched. Regular season vs tournament standings will probably be bery shuffled as anyone is beatable. It will depend on matchup. An upset loss early can give a team an easy trip to championship that they frankly never belonged in. Has happened in the past. I am surprised at lack of comments from GB folks. Looking at them, they actually have a complete tool set of shooters and bigs. They may gel and make surprises. Just my observation. Best way to watch is go to games where you are not for either team. Both teams act like refs are out for them when in reality they were poor for both sides.
  14. Very average district this year. Most anyone can win or lose on any given night. Most all comments on this board seem to be from the White House area of the district. Lots of homers for WHand WHH. Not much mention of Harpeth... I’m sure they won’t mind flying under the radar. EVERY team is bery beatable right now. I do agree that Heritage and Harpeth are the two best right now and their records show it. Waiting to see if anyone else will take one of those down a notch. Like i said before, anyone can beat anyone this year. MVP will be a purely stat based from the final two. I have seen no front runners. Entire district seems to rely on 3’s a little much. Regional will most likely be short lived though. Not sure if anyone will make it past 1st game. Predict Harpeth and Heritage 1 and 2 either way. Rest of field is a draw and expect bottom 2 to provide an upset at some point..... now release the WH and WHH homers
