  1. Truly a "Hoosier" type atmosphere! TCA boys played their hearts out. TCA was smaller and outmanned but never gave up! They will have their hands full against a great BTW club but you never know! Best HS game I have seen in a long time. There should be a movie made from this game!!!! Win or lose on Thursday this has been a Cinderalla season and one that will never be forgotten!

     

     

    Very impressive win from a scrappy tough Lion team. Not sure I would call it a colossal upset based on the fact that Westwood lost at minimum 10 games this year in what outside of themselves and Booker T Washington is a traditionally weak district. Defeat Booker T, make a run through the field at Murfreesboro, return to Jackson with a gold ball and perhaps then we can talk about a movie.

  2. I think the case this year is that you have a lot of good teams in Memphis not just one who is above the rest. It will be interesting to see how a fairly new school in Southwind matches up against the traditional powers come tournament time seeing that they don't have a lot of post season success.

     

    Currently living in Murfreesboro I haven't been able to see any of the Memphis teams this year but it looks to be the usual crowd fighting to survive what is by far the best and most competitive basketball in the state period. I invite anyone who doesn't agree to visit the Region 8AAA tournament and then try to argue.

     

    In regards do Dyer County I hear they are very perimiter oriented and will struggle against someone with an inside presence.

     

    I've seen Siegel play and while they certainly have size inside they aren't very strong at gaurd and I am pretty sure they will cruise until they meet a team that has a good point gaurd and ultimately fall just as they did last year when they got an up close and personal look at why Chris Jones was such a highly regarded prospect.

     

    If anyone has any information about a team please feel free to share.

     

    Can't wait to see who will still be standing by Thrusday March 17th.

  3. This is off my memory so I might be off by a couple but here goes.

     

    Robert Wade - Maplewood

    Kedren Johnson - Marshall County

    Jordan Anderson - Marshall County

    Jay Murphy - Bolivar

    O'Neal Woods - Bolivar

    Ricky Tisdale - Bolivar

    Tarius Johnson - Liberty

    DeAndre Barnett - Liberty

    Cordaro Williams - Liberty

     

    Jay Murphy MVP

  4. I've only seen one game which happened to be their substate game which was at Cleveland. Going off one game which I saw a week ago Columbia has 3 guys that are about 6'5 but I wasn't impressed with how tough they played inside. They have a stocky guy that's about 6'1 or 6'2 who was their best rebounder and he came of the bench. Columbia's starting gaurds were tough and played good defense. One of the tall guys seems to like facing the basket and the other two weren't very aggressive until the end of the game when the two gaurds fouled out. Their point gaurd is probably their best shooter and he's not a bad ball handler by any means. Columbia used a 7-8 man rotation in their game against Cleveland.

     

    If I were a betting man I would say White Station by 12-17 if they play well. If they come out and look lethargic as they are know to do then it could be a bit of a game. If White Station plays to their abilities then they should win by at least 23-26.
