  1. Bradley will have to play their best game in 30+ years to win this game (they basically did vs Bearden), There should be no way in the world to be overconfident in playing Maryville, but I’m afraid it may happen. It will be a great battle.
  2. The top TN girls teams in the Chattanooga area from last year were: 1. Bradley Central, 2. McMinn Central, 3. Cleveland, 4. Baylor, 5. Signal Mountain. The rest of the top teams were all about the same from the following group: Whitwell, Chatt Christian, Boyd, Silverdale, Meigs Co, McMinn Co., Walker Valley, Soddy Daisy, East Hamilton. I’d say the top 3 teams for 23-24 won’t change. Bradley is simply loaded & should win any Chattanooga area games by 40+, except McMinn Central, who has strength coming back too. Bradley’s 2nd five would probably be #3 or 4 on the list… I don’t know about all the teams, but I’ll give some comments on a few. Cleveland - lost a lot, but have Top 100 Jr. Lauren Hurst & other solid players around her. Baylor lost All State PG, but usually solid. Signal is always well coached. Whitwell lost their two All-State caliber girls & will struggle. I think most of the others have a good nucleus coming back. What teams have I missed that will be strong in 23-24? What other insight should we have on these teams heading in to the season?
  3. Probably 7 of those were 5 yard encroachment penalties on 3rd or 4th down where Cleveland had a crazy shift and Bradley handed them a first down. Cleveland had 3-4 offsides penalties on the shift, so I guess Cleveland netted out ok - LOL
  4. They didn’t pull away. Tied heading into final match, but Tetoe Boyd got the pin as expected.
  5. Cleveland 21 Bradley 22 Midway through. Belcher next. It would the biggest upset in the history of forever if Bradley could somehow pull out a win.
  6. Correct in the East. Lakeway & CAK will battle for the top 2 seeds & Notre Dame will be favored for third, with Boyd Buchanan & Silverdale most likely battling for the last State Tourney spot. There is a big drop off between the top 2 and the next 3.
  7. Just saw that Bradley will play this Saturday at LFO at 3:00, so should be a good matchup of the areas two best girls teams. I haven’t seen LFO play, but I don’t think they have played a team as good as Bradleys defense will be, so should be a good game. I will guess Bradley by 8-10.
  8. Agree with top 4. The next 3 may be Whitwell, Meigs Co & Tellico Plains. Whitwell - beat Meigs Co & will play them again Meigs - lost to Whitwell & Polk Co; beat McMinn Co & Tellico Plains Tellico Plains - beat Polk Co & Walker Valley: lost to McMinn Central & Meigs Probably 7-8 teams after that all about the same.
  9. They have several transfers. The Simmons sisters from Lookout Valley are great ball handlers & shooters. The younger one has a high ceiling. Not sure where the other girls came from.
  10. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I thought Sullivan might go somewhere a little bigger than TN Tech, but I guess it was a good fit. They are getting a really good player.
  11. I think Bearden is head & shoulders better than anyone in the East (that’s only area I’m real familiar with). They have two 2022 guards transfer in from Kings Academy in last 2 years that have committed (maybe signed, not sure) with TN Tech & Lee University. I understand they have some bigs too. I would say there is at least a 50% chance they win AAAA.
  12. Gotcha. Yes. Makes more sense now. Thanks.
  13. Yes. I was pulling for Cleveland to pull it out at the end. I don’t know how Bradley will do this year with their Carson Newman signee out, but it looks like a lot of really good teams up there.
  14. Lakeway Christian (Morristown) & CAK are the top 2 in D2-A East.
  15. Ooltewah beat WV on Tuesday, so they now have the inside shot at finishing 4th. .
  16. Not a bad list. Whitwell won at Meigs Co. by 11, so that is the main one I would have a few spots higher (rematch at Whitwell later in season). After the top 3, I really think the next bunch of teams are all fairly equal.
  17. Wrong thread… this the boys page. You started the thread. Did you forget? LOL
  18. Cleveland lost 3 really good seniors from last year. I don’t think many realize just how good Grant Hurst was. He & McGowan did all the little things very well & didn’t really care who got the credit. They both were great leaders & that can be hard to replace. I think Cleveland will play better by the end of the year.
  19. I’m just messing around. I appreciate the input.
