From: 11AA

There are a few things I have learned over the years from Cheatham Co High School's girls' basketball program.

 

1. You may never count them out.

2. No matter what the talent level, they will still win ~20 games in a given season.

3. They play better in high stress, do or die match-ups.

4. If you get ahead of them by more than 10pts. They lose composure.

 

 

With that being said, I am changing my original prediction to Cheatham. I do think Harpeth has the most raw talent in the district, but the seniors of Cheatham Co. have the drive. Look for both of these teams to host a sectional game.

As for the consolation game... If Bliss is playing, how much of a difference will she make? Judging by semi-final performances, I say Waverly takes it and travels to McNairy Central.

Does anyone see Waverly or Sycamore winning Friday night when they travel west? Waverly faced Bolivar last year in a close game, but that was a completely different team. The top 3 from 12AA each have good records, but does that matter during tournament time? 4 Seed Camden isn't bad when they are firing on all cylinders.
