A little of both. I don’t believe the older Alexander played at Christiana. The older Hayes girl played for Hendersonville as a freshman. One family that has multiple players on the team moved in to a rental house owned by a former boys basketball coach 3 years ago. Not suggesting a TSSAA violation, but all the talent is not home grown. Really good coach and they play hard. If they just had the girls from the middle school they would still compete for state championship, just not as dominate.

Would not sleep on Wilson Central....beat Oak Ridge 64-55 tonight. Freshman Sydney Richetto had 35, after 31 in the opening game. Might struggle with MJs size but will create problems for the rest of the district. Lebanon plays Oak Ridge tomorrow which will be telling.

Wilson Central wins 64-55 in OT. Freshman Sydney Richetto had 35 for Central. If this kid drops 35 against a good Oak Ridge team, she will create problems in District 9AAA.

Anyone know what time the finals start?

In no particular order...Wilson Central, Station Camp, Rossview, Henry Co., Dickson Co., Cane Ridge. Possibly leaving some teams out that might have a shot. After Dickson Co lost to Franklin 41-18 and Wilson Central lost to Hendersonville 39-25, just makes me believe anything can happen between these two regions.

Hard to disagree. Several teams come tourney time will have a shot to advance. Last year it was 3 teams playing for 2 spots. Central, Rossview and Dickson County. This year it is probably 6-7.

If no team from district 9 goes to Murfreesboro, who are the two teams that will represent Region 5 & 6? Last year it was Dickson Co. and Wilson Central.

Wilson Central beat Station Camp 62-26 when they played a week ago.

Anyone know what is going on with Hendersonville? Recent box scores would indicate they are missing a few key starters from earlier in the season. Not surprised they lost to Cheatham Co (CC is a good team) but I did not think it would be by 20. Other recent losses seem odd as well for the team I saw earlier this season. Anyone have an update?

Was at Central-CC game as well and it was closer than the final score. Central has played 2 really good AA teams in Greeneville and CC. Greeneville has the best individual player, but CC is better defensively. This is only based on these two games, but CC and Greeneville look pretty even to me. Both should have really good years.

Upton toe her ACL. She was the MVP of state tourney last year as a soph. that takes 2 of the top 3 scorers from last year off the floor. (1 graduated) They still have a chance to improve before tourney, but this is a big loss.

Did not post correctly. This is dm88 top 10 I am responding to.

My state top 10 in AA 1. East Nashville 2. Upperman 3. McMinn Central 4. Fulton 5. Pearl-Cohn 6. Westview 7. Jackson Southside 8. Cheatham County 9. CPA 10. Creek Wood I don't think East Nashville is #1. 2nd best player on the team tore her ACL and is out for season. I have seen the before/after team and it is not close. Still have a great player in Overton but the girl who tore her ACL was a big, big loss.

Not sure I completely agree with your talent assessment. Watched them play Westmoreland, Rossview and Central. Central shot about 25% from the field and still won by 8. I think we will know more about Hendersonville after next Friday when they play Station Camp. SC will press and Hendersonville has struggled at times to take care of the basketball against pressure. Not sure how you rate the talent at Central. They have several seniors that have played a lot of basketball over the past 3 years and play really hard. Still early in the season as they try and figure out how to score without Spray. Watched them in a pre-season play day beat Oak Ridge by 20 and they looked pretty talented.

Oak Ridge played Lebanon, MJ and Central. Lebanon lost by 15, MJ won by 2 and Central won by 20. Not sure who Oak Ridge lost from last year's runner-up team.
