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?
