Wow! Congratulations to Coach Byrd and the Ladycats!!! State Champions!!! This was such an exciting game and both teams played great! Today was a great day to be a Wayne County Supporter.... State Champs and Carly Daniel was honored with Ms. Basketball, and Coach Byrd says goodbye with another Gold Ball and a final win! What a way to go out with an unbelievable career! Thanks Coach Byrd

Congrats to Carly Daniel!!! After seeing the games, and seeing what she has done all year, she definitely deserved it! Congrats once again!

Looks like Jim Brown will be traveling down to district 12A to get some players for next year! haha Good job Lorretto! Good luck in the semis!

Hahahaha Please. That's hilarious. Ask the coaches around his area if he recruits. They will tell you the truth. Go Loretto!

Jim Brown is a good coach but an even better recruiter (which is against the rules). They are definitely the team to beat this year. It's hard to beat teams who recruits, just ask any of the coaches who used to try and beat Shelbyville when Rick Insell was there.. nearly impossible. Good luck to Loretto!

I wonder if Coach Brown from Santa Fe still thinks his team is 10 points better than WC? I laughed when I over heard him telling other coaches this. This is the 2nd straight year Coach Brown has said these remarks and WC has beaten them badly and eliminated them both years. Maybe he should think about not saying anything until after the game has been played. Good luck to WC as they play Loretto for the Region Championship!

We will get to see two great basketball games tonight! Trotter will be fired up as always and he will lead the Eagles to a win over MP by 8 points. It's a must win game or go home, Trotter thrives in these pressure situations. He is probably my favorite Coach to watch in the tournaments, his cockiness and arrogance is like no other. Good luck to Trotter and the Eagles. PC vs WC will be the game I am most interested in. PC has been victorious against WC twice this year but I'm not sure this goes in their favor. It's very hard to beat a team 3 times in a row (when the teams are pretty evenly matched, which they are) and tonight is a must win game. Saying this, the pressure is definitely on PC. I'm sure Willard and Sisk will have something up their sleeve that they have not shown yet while Hasting is probably going to have the same strategy in which he defeated WC the previous two games (which he should). I see WC playing a different game tonight winning by 4 points in a close well fought win. If PC does lose, will they fire Hasting for not making it to the State like they did Coach Lee? If so, who will take that position? Just wondering

I have seen a lot of girls basketball this year. My vote is going to Carly Daniel from Wayne County. She is very athletic and runs the floor better than any post player I have seen in the last five years. Carly is also a tremendous passer and her scoring ability speaks for itself. I feel like every time I see a box score she has gone for 25 pts and 8 or 9 rebounds. Good luck to her and the Ladycats from Wayne County.

I know these "play days" and "Hall of Fame games" are all we have to base things on right now but lets face it, these type games are really just scrimmage games. Most coaches do not want to show anything this early in the year so they will run basic motion and simple offenses (which is smart). So, it's hard to play we beat this team card at this point in the year. I don't think anybody would argue that Wayne Co and Creekwood (both teams with great head coaches) would be much harder to beat in the regular season and tournament play than a "play day" or "hall of fame game". So even if they play well and keep it close against Lake Co, I still don't think you can make a reliable comparison until district play starts.

No, they really are not a "Number 1 caliber team". If you are a PC fan, you might want to think you are, but honestly you are not. PC has good players but not great players. Any other year this would be a strong and competitive PC team, but district 12A is too strong this year. PC will have 6 district losses this year (2 from Loretto 2 from WC and 2 from Summertown) but should do well against their non-district schedule.

Good Luck to Sommer! She needed to move. She needed to be treated right and to play for a coach that gave her equal respect, which Morris did not. I heard Summertown was thinking about letting Morris go. Any of this true?

Great games tonight! That is what high school basketball tournament play is all about! Close games and last second shots! Congrats to Coach Franks and WC tonight, really nice job of staying in the game and not giving up. Also, congrats to Summertown, Trotter is a great coach and really gets his team motivated and ready to play. He cracks me up watching him coach! haha Looking forward to seeing a great game Thursday! Good luck to both teams Also, tough luck to Coach Lee, he did a great job this year and Perry Co is lucky to have him. It would be nice if Perry Co's fans had half as much class as he does. It's pretty embarrassing when fans walk by the floor screaming and pointing at the referees. Grow up, take a lesson from your Coach.

Willard has to get the most out of his players, he only has 8. haha He has ran everybody else off. That has hurt him in the years past. There was a couple of years where he could have won the state tournament (or at least went) if he would not have run girls off. He should be a guys coach, they can take the intensity better, and the language. haha Congrats to him for making it to the Region Finals and the Sub-State. Good luck

good one buddy
