Science Hill on a roll

[SHHSFAN]

The Toppers were in action against Sullivan Central on Friday night where they demolished the cougars by 38 pts. Just when Topper fans doubted that they could top that flawless performance, they went to Volunteer and won by 53 while playing scrubs most of the second half. All topper players scored with the exception of one, and 8 topper players had at lead 2 steals. There were 4 topper players in double digits (Wattad, Lauderback, Forney, Odom) and 5 with 5 or more points. Landon Turner seems unstoppable with the ball, as he breaks the press with extreme ease, and always seems to find the open man. Althought Crowder didn't have a good showing at Volunteer, He and Lauderback have emerged as a 1, 2 knockout punch underneath for the Toppers. Forney is dangerous from behind the arc, but that really goes without saying. Omar Wattad had 27 pts. He outscored Volunteer by himself throughout the 3rd quarter. He more than likely would have had 50 if he would have gotten the minutes in the 2nd half. With this said, Could this be the year of the TOPPERS?

The toppers must stay focused and cant have their typical post season let downs that they've had the last 3 years. Regional tournament is the big deal. They have to win that to get the sub state game at home. Any of the knoxville team whether it be Halls, Oak Ridge, Bearden or whomever will be really tough on the road. If they stay unselfish they've got a good shot. Wattad is phenomenal he scored 25 on 9-12 shooting at volunteer. If you give him 20 shots a game the kid would average nearly 40 a game

Yo...The Toppers are good, but lets not get to excited. These are upper East Tn. teams your playing. To bad Memphis is in Tennessee.

[cchsfan2006]

i know the imac is not any good this year but you cant overlook Greeneville. they should be tough come tournament time. it will probably be Science Hill and Greeneville in the region finals and the region is at Greeneville. i wouldnt be talking about substate and state till science hill makes it.

[TribeAllDaWay]

It really does not matter anyways. While making the state tournament would be a heck of an accomplishment, it will be 1and done for whoever makes it from this area. That means they will be playing the best team in Memphis and the upset just will not happen...

SHHSFAN, there were just a few errors in your statement about the game. Omar scored 25 points and actually played 22 minutes in the game. He left with 3:49 left in the fourth quarter. Also, Science Hill did not sub for scrubs (which were almost as good as the starters) until midway through the fourth also. One difference than with past coaches that I would like to commend Kutlip for is not pressing in the fourth quarter. Many teams from the past would have still pressed in the fourth quarter while being up 40+ points, but Kutlip showed a lot of class and did not press. The Toppers are peaking at the right time as we are struggling to keep a MASH Unit together with the injuries (Physically and Mentally) we are enduring right now. I love this time of year with the tourney nearing.

 

 

GOD Bless!!!

Mental injuries ?

Greeneville will beat science hill. They cannot match up against greeneville and their defense will give Science hill alot of problems.

What is the scouting report on Greeneville? I have yet to see them this year.

[hessforprez]

This shouldn't even be talked about on here. Central handled Greenville pretty well on their own court. SHHS by 20.

Is this post a joke? Greeneville has nothing on Science Hill. Greeneville will have a hard time playing with the Toppers. This will be no contest.
