District 12A

[RedTang]

There should be several teams in the district with a lot of new players from last year and was curious as to what the teams would look like this year and what were the expectations. Practice should be getting started very shortly.

 

Cwood - should be the team to beat with just about everyone returning.

 

Perry Co. & Waynesboro - should have several new faces as they lost a lot of really good players.

 

Summertown - Lost some good players as well but have some young talent

 

Frank Hughs - Dont really know much about what they have

 

Loretto - Lost one starter but should be improved with a pretty good size team having three starters at 6'4".

The D12a games should be fun to watch this year. There will be a lot of young guys on the floor, so a lot of these games could go either way. I bet we'll have lots of barn-burners.

Collinwood should be the team to beat. They have just about everyone coming back and several of them are only juniors. Logan M, Tucker Roberson, Wesley Pigg, Jace Brewer and Peyton Risner are juniors that I can recall with Hunter Andrews, Ethan Butler & Jacob Daniel all seniors but I have heard that Butler & Daniel may be injuried and out for a while. Littlejohn was a soph that looked to be helpful.

 

S'town lost several but will have big man Seth Wright back with Cason Glass (seniors) and Tanner McGill and Morrison with a couple other young guns.

 

Perry County will be young and raw with a couple of returning players from a very good team.

 

Loretto could be the top team with almost all of theirs coming back and big players.

 

Wayne County has 1 maybe 2 starters returning. Seniors Jalyn Bevis, Carson Kelly, Big Zac Risner, Cory Stooksberry and Dylnn Prater with juniors Keeton Kelly, Jacob Bevis, Ian Powell, Sawyer Ray, Horton and soph Lucas Pierce, Chase Camfield, and others.

 

Clifton will have several back as well in Matt Lineberry, Zek Davis, and others.

I have heard that Jacob Daniel & Ethan Butler both are out for the season @ Cwood. I hate it when these kids play their entire lives and get hurt, then miss their senior year. Cwood will be the strongest team still in 12A.

Didnt Butler get hurt at the end of last season?

Didnt Butler get hurt at the end of last season?

Yes. He reinjuried the same knee is what I'm hearing and had surgery on it again.

[RedTang]

Thats tough. Hate to see anyone have an injury, much less a serious one. Hopefully all works out for them.

Collinwood will still be really good but the lost of Butler and Daniels has to hurt. A lot.

I think the loss of Butler helped Collinwood. I seen them play Richland at the region game and they seemed to be in a better flow of the offense. Nothing against Butler but Richland beat them by 20+ during the season WITH butler but lost the region game without him. I think the Richland vs. Collinwood game will be a great game to watch we play them the third game of the season. could possibly be a Region Championship game as well.

[raidernation1995]

not saying at all i am glad that Butler is hurt because that is a terrible thing to happen knowing he is going into his senior season along with Daniels and wont be able to play some of it. That's got to suck.

Loretto lost to Collinwood last year in the district tournament by 7 without Butler and in the regular season by a lot more. Is there only one Danials on the team for Collinwood or is there another one?

Jacob Daniel is the player lost. He has started since his sophmore year. He was a very good player for them. Both players being out will hurt them but they do have a really good junior group.
