I hear Cannon County is pretty good in your Region. I didn't know until a few days ago that Cheatham County was in Huntingdon's Region. I would think Cheatham, Huntingdon, Summertown and Loretto favorites to be in substate. Heard Loretto and Summertown with another big battle last night. Probably the best rival in the state.

I appreciate it Hawk. The first half was about a good of battle as you will see. Both teams were throwing punches. Both teams led a few times. Gibson County got hot in the second half and started hitting a bunch of shots. Thought our team played very aggressive especially offensively. Sad deal to see the young star PG get hurt. Very good player and really fun to watch. Prayers for this young lady and the players, coaches and her family.

I hate that for y'all. She is a great player. Prayers for her to make a complete recovery.

I sure do hope not. She is a great player. Assistant told me it was her ankle and that he thought she would be Ok. Never know though. Hopefully she will get better this week with some likely rest with the snow. She hit a couple of big shots herself. I was impressed with her. I do think every game will be a dogfight. Tonight and chapter 1 went to Gibson County but these games can go either way on a given night.

Very proud of our girls performance tonight. First half and first part of second half had 4 or 5 lead changes. Alexander can really shoot the ball. Westview, Gibson County and Peabody all are good teams.

Hopefully the PG will be ok. The Westview assistant said it was an ankle. Prayers that she is Ok. They made some big shots in the first half. Alexander is a great shooter. Had about 4 or 5 lead changes in the game. Gibson County shot the ball as good as they have all year in the second half. I do think the Westview Gibson County future matchups will be tough games as they always are. Haskins is a great coach and will learn from this and regroup.

Wilkins got a technical for shrugging his shoulders up like what was the call and the ref slapped a tech. Anyway the girl that shot the FT's missed the first FT and our fans cheered that she missed the FT and a Creekwood scorekeeper who they say is a school administrator looked into the crowd and said to stop cheering against her because she was a Freshman and was 14 years old. We told the scorekeeper we aren't going to stop cheering because we paid our money to cheer our team and he sent the sheriff over. It was a girl and she talked to me like I agree with y"all this is a total circus here but I have to kick any of y'all out of the gym if they tell me too. No profanity just cheering for our team and they didn't like it. I would say that every ball out of bounds went to the home team and they shot about 35 FT's to our 8-10 and ours were at the end of the game. We went into a four corner up 14 with 7 minutes left in the game so we would have enough players to finish the game. We had our post foul out early in the 4th and we had most of our players with 4 fouls before it was over.

It was a different place for sure and we were warned about it. I will be honest I kinda blew it off but I doubt our coach will ever send his team back up there. I wouldn't if I was the coach.

Yeah you get the point. Question. What is your take on the administration going to the opposing crowd and telling them not to yell any more for their team or they would be thrown out?? What do you think about the sheriff coming up to the fans and agreeing with them 100% but telling them I have to throw y'all out if they ask me too because it is not my facility if y"all keep cheering?? But their girls are a pretty good team and play hard and very likely in Murfreesboro.

I think AAA is wide open. Talent wise I like Dyersbirg but you never know how 15-17 year olds are going to play. HS games go by pretty fast. You come out and miss two or three and the other team hits two or three and it turns into a dogfight. You get a chance to watch White County and Cumberland County this year?? I think that District with Livingston Academy and Upperman might be competition for West TN down the road at state. Going to be interesting. South Side definitely was impressive in the East TN Tournament.

She was a great player. Very aggressive and was a leader for sure. I have been to a lot of State Tournaments and she could hold her own with the best of them.

Well Hawk yes it should be but you never know. Just saying everybody has a home court advantage to some degree with fans yelling etc...but it is a different set of rules there.

They have a nice post who uses her body really well and gets good positioning, have a good PG who is athletic and can take it to the rim and shoot it, also got a couple of other shooters as well. Kayla has done a great job with them. They have 23 girls I think. Just don't get rattled either. Pretty solid.

South Gibson, Crockett County, Dyer County and Obion will all battle to stay away from Dyersburg. But I will say this. Dyersburg better not overlook Crockett or South Gibson. They both can play on given nights.

I would hope so.

Just said GC defense is legit. Dyersburg is loaded and they scored 73 on them. But that don't mean we are better than Dyersburg. More to the game than defense. But GC holding Bartlett to 40 is impressive. Bartlett will be in Murfreesboro. They are loaded too and will be a handful.

Whoever has to go up there better hope their local refs don't call the game.

I agreed with his rankings. I just said GC had a good defense. Dyersburg probably wins AAA. They are loaded. Never know how these games are going to turn out. Crockett County is a good team. We got beat fair and square. We needed to get beat. Hopefully they learn from it because Westview and Peabody will be tough for sure.

I always told mine to always dream big and yes dreams do come true sometimes. Got to play every possesion like it is your last and see what happens. Single A is wide open for sure.

I agree with you. I think the state all the way around this year will be maybe the most competitive in a while.

Reason I bring up Greenfield is they have the Alford girl who is a scoring machine on the bench and a couple of others all hurt. They will be better when healthy. Mckenzie has Reynolds and Davis who are flat out awesome but can the other three handle ball pressure?? Big drop off after those two or it was this summer anyway. Wayne County is pretty good but are not dominant by any stretch. Wouldn't suprise me if a Pickett County or somebody across the river made a good run. It is weak. AAA is pretty weak too. AA is flat out loaded.

I think Single A it is wide open. Wayne County, Mckenzie, Cloudland, Pickett County maybe Clarkrange, maybe South Fulton, maybe Greenfield when healthy, maybe Moore County....Lot of maybes and I may have missed some teams but that is a lot of your competetition.

Dyersburg I would say is the favorite. Don't know if anybody will beat them. Livingston Academy, Upperman, Greenville and Elizabethton are down across the river it seems. South Side will be better for sure but they aren't what they were last year.

Yeah the key for Huntingdon is they can probably play with any team around if Kee stays out of foul trouble. She has games where she misses multiple minutes and that hurts Huntingdon bad. They are a really good team when they are dialed in. If they get hot and she stays out of foul trouble they could be really hard to beat.

We are playing pretty good. We will see how it all unfolds. Peabody and Westview both will be tough games every time we meet.
