How big are the posts? I'm hoping to see a good match up in the paint!

I watched a couple of minutes of film on WV. They just remind me of a team full of girls that don't have anything else to do and they go to the gym and practice shooting all the time. I heard that they take over half their shot from the 3 point line.. better get out on 'em Lady Blaze!! Go Lady Blaze!!!!

I agree PHargis.. Despite all that RHS have been thru Haislip handles it like a pro. Being a junior.. Wow she is going places. I love watching her play.. She is a baller. Good luck to the Lady Warriors next year. but for now.. I hope the Blaze keep truckin' and dominate on Saturday. How good is Walker Valley? I watched a little film on them..but not a lot.

Riverdale ranked #2.. Wow. 7AAA is a tough district, bet you didn't expect Blackman to beat Riverdale.

Haha.. Got that right.

Blackman vs. Riverdale 2 overtimes.. It was crazy. Matt Allison hit a 3 that was beautiful. Both teams had some key players in foul trouble and eventually fouled out.. JD White (BHS) Taylor Thigpen (RHS) Julian Barker (BHS) and some others I don't remember. Blackman was really lacking a big guy. Hopefully Dajuan Brown will heal up and come in and dominate. I think the final was Riverdale by like 6 or 8. This game was very intense to watch and some great hustle by both teams. Oh, if the Blaze could hit a free throw.. They would have definitely won.

Blaze played awesome.. I have never seen them in their past 4 years play like they did tonight. Fans, coaches, and players were so impressed. Shelby Campbell is a rising star. She is a point guard, and I'm not sure there is another one in the district that can come close to her. Tiera Norris and Kelsey Nowlin are just sophomores and are showing up like they own the place. Blackman is going to do big things this your. Way to go Blaze!!!! (They even go their student section to stand up..Which isn't normal for a girl's game)

All of the first round games are played at the higher seed's house? Is that what you are saying?

Blackman doesn't have ANY excuses winning THAT bad. The guys are smart players and they can play when they want to, so losing by that many points there are not excuses. David Barnes would not have made much of a difference. At the Smyrna game he would have, but not against the McGh... whatever team. Heck they won without him already! But he is a great player don't get me wrong there.

Once girls hit about 6 foot they seem to slow down and there jump is none like the girls from the 5'8-5'11 range. i have to agree with you on that one! i've always noticed that being more injury prone is true also. maybe growing too fast? i'm not sure.

Appendix.

Blackman boys didn't do too hot against Smyrna today. Their head coach wasn't there, due to surgery, so that could have some to do with it.
