GRACE HAS ALL FIVE STARTERS BACK AND MORE GRAET TRANSFERS AND THE 2006 COACH OF THE YEAR.THEY WENT 33-3LAST YEAR AND NOW THEYRE 1-0 AFTER EMBARISSING WASHBURN BY ALMOST 50 POINTS
That really is an impressive win over Washburn....Not

I thought it was a good game. I think #3 was the best player I've seen this year, and yes that means better than Chase Dunn and Jacob Wright. This kid matched Jacob everytime down the floor. This is a good team, and I'll be suprised if we don't see them in the state tourny. As for the officiatting, I thought it was above avg. Only thing I have to complain about is a few too many missed walk calls, but that is probably the most missed call by every officiating crew in the state. As for the youngster, I think he goes by Bubba, he looks like he'll be a good ref for years to come. My only complants really with refs are ones that I see alot that I personally feel are out to get pickett co and bibb like (Case, Carr, Goose, and Heady). And I think most of it is because of Bibb. When Brent was the boys coach, we got more calls, and I thought it was better reffing, the teams got to play more instead of these draw out free throw contests. I really only notice bad officiatting in games that are reffed by the previously mentioned officials. But as for this weekends crews, both did solid jobs.
Wow, better than Dunn and Wright? That's high praise... Anyone got a name on this kid? How many points did he have?

with grace returning all starters and adding new faces will anyone stop them this year .. in my opinion the 1 & 2 punch of slusher an pridemore will be enouph to win state
Win state lol

Bad decision on Elliot's part in my opinion. His game fits in much better with the style of play Tennessee runs with. Duke is a program on the decline with a sub-par talent level while Tennessee is one of the hottest programs in the nation.

I dont know much about rockwood but my rankigs would have to go
#1 Grace really good team lots of weapons
2 Harriman dont know much about but hear they got some size
3 Greenback they'll play with a lot of heart this year
4 Rockwood could use some size this year
5 Knox Christian new coach?
6 Midway needs alot of help
7 T.S.D dont kno anything about them
From the little I saw of Rockwood over the summer they are huge this year. Even most of their wings are 6'0 plus. Harriman lost most of its size and will be a guard laden team. They will have to be scrappy to guard the good post players around the region. I don't know about third, but I do agree with you about Greenback, they always play hard and will have a good year.

Grace played oliver springs and Shultz this summer at fulton camp and it was 30 piont game not even close. Shultz is a nice player but not best in region by a long stretch. Grace beat rockwood Twice last year by 15 and they have everyone back plus added some nice players that will push for time, Rockwood will be good and has a very good coach but not good enough to beat Grace.
This is to be expected.. I guess we can give you a pass since Grace is a relatively new program. You will soon learn that summer games and camps mean absolutely nothing towards the outcomes of regular season games.

District 3A
1. Rockwood- Has good size this year and solid guard play led by the best coach in the region.
2. Grace- The lethal 1-2 punch returns with Pridemore and Slusher along with excellent role players.
3. Berean- Not seen them, but from what I've heard they are a force to be reckoned with.
4. Knox Christian- Always sort of a mystery who might play but has great athleticism.
5. Harriman- Completely new team but McGill will lead them.
6. Greenback- Returns most significant contributors from a season ago.
7. Midway- Like Vegas said, just not enough firepower.
8. TSD- Not sure what they have.
District 4A
1. OS- Shultz may be the best player in the region.
2. Wartburg- Lost a lot but with the style they play, they will win plenty of games.
3. Oneida- Always solid.
4. Oakdale- Will surprise a lot of people.
5. Sunbright- Good young nucleus.
6. Coalfield- Lost everyone.
I think Rockwood, OS, and Grace are clearly the frontrunners and maybe a step up from the rest. There are plenty of quality teams with quality coaching in this region so look for some surprise teams.

Why did Humboldt drop down a classification? I'm not trying to imply anything but I saw in the preview for the single A tournament this year that they had 580 kids or so.. Maybe there is a perfectly reasonable answer but it's kind of unfair playing against schools with half the enrollment they have.

Westside over CSAS by 14
Culleoka over Cloudland by 18
Humboldt over Wartburg by 11
Temple over East Lit. by 8
Culleoka over Westside by 4
Temple over Humboldt by 6
Temple over Culleoka by 2

what does the actual bracket look like? Who would play who in the semi-finals?

QUOTE(Ineedalife @ Mar 4 2007 - 09:23 PM) 826399882[/snapback]you bring up a good point about UHs court. Those extra 10 feet and woodacres ball handling make it difficult to press the whole game. Wartburg better play their whole squad if they want to keep this close. I look for UH to win, but will have to play best game to date. No gimmees this time of year.
I'm hearing a lot of high praise about this woodacre kid.. For those of us who haven't seen him play, what kind of player is he? size, shooting, defense..etc

I've heard rumors that Adam Jackson is returning to OS next season...Anyone know if there is any truth to this??
-
What time and where is this game held?
-
WOW that score is very surprising... how many did Jenkins have?
-
Yes Cosby has been playing well of late and it's always tough to get a win in the nest. Harriman is an extremely athletic team but are also very inconsistent. The key will be for Harriman to contain Jenkins and try to make him play defense. Cosby must shoot the 3 ball well and speed up the pace of the game to be successful. I'll take Cosby by 6
P.S. If anyone could give updates on the game it would be much appreciated.

Grace was up the entire game by at least 15 and Greenback came out lighting it up from everywhere in the 4th quarter...against our JV. haha
Yea... I'm sure that's exactly what happened
.. Actually what I heard was that Greenback should have won the game if they shot any better than 6-21 from the free throw line.. Heck, if they shoot 67% they win by 5 -
yeah but harriman only beat cosby by like 9 and we beat em by 28, so i dont think harriman will be a big problem we just need to stay focused
Sounds like the newcomers are getting the big head..? Soon enough that head will bust after they start playing some District road games against the perennial powers..

I've heard that he is going to transfer after this season. At first It was said he was leaning toward Vandy, but I also heard he was considering going to UT. Has anyone heard if he's leaning one way or the other...?

Okay so mainly i post on the girls basketball but i heard and read about the Wartburg vs. Rockwood game..WHAT HAPPENED. Oakdale almost beat Rockwood at Rockwood and gave Rockwood a pretty good game at home. So does that mean Oakdale has a chance against Wartburg tomorrow night? just some thoughts.....
Bright Tiger
Oakdale is a solid ball club, they really have a chance to beat anyone because they shoot the 3 so well. Rockwood was up by 20 or so in the second half in both games but Oakdale shot their way back in it. Oakdale really plays well at home. Wartburg should win the game, but don't expect a blow out. The fast pace the bulldogs play could play into Oakdale's hands if they can get open looks from the perimeter in transition.

Wow, I was just checking rockwood's roster and they only have a total of
6 Juniors and Seniors this year. That's a pretty young squad.
Are any of these returning starters from last year..??
There is 1 returning starter from last year's squad, #44 Peddicord.. But in general it is a pretty young team from Rockwood. They have 4 sophomores that play valuable minutes every night.. If they stay composed I think they will pull it out in the end.
-
anybody have an update on this game?

I guess whoever was guarding #21 from Cosby decided that playing defense was optional.
How many did Jenkins have? I heard he had 37 against Gibbs earlier in the season
.. Actually what I heard was that Greenback should have won the game if they shot any better than 6-21 from the free throw line.. Heck, if they shoot 67% they win by 5
