I think they play their semi-final game friday at 4:30 and champ game is sat at 4:00. You may want to double check the time somewhere but i will try to get solid times. I will prob make it down saturday for the champ game. I didnt see their game last nite but what was the report you got from the game.

Heard Gray can apply pressure with their press like no other team they have seen.

Gray won the state sectional for the 2nd consecutive year. Pretty impressive.

OK, I spoke to some people I know who were at Cattletsburg and they said the Gray team was for real! Heard they have a really good post player who will be at Daniel Boone next year. Rest of team pretty good also. I have a question, What is TNT? I can't find anybody who has heard of it?

TNT State Tournament has been going on for 20+ years, takes place in Springfield Tennessee every February over a two week period. Teams are broken into 4 divisions based on 8th Grade class size. http://www.rcstn.net/tnt/2013_brackets Consist of a lot of private schools and middle schools who chose not to play under TMSAA rules/guidelines especially practice restrictions. Another State type tournament is the James C Haile State Tournament each year in Murfreesboro, TN - it has 2 divisions - small and large schools - also has a 6th Grade division.

South Cumberland took the 2A Championship with a 70-30 win over South Fentress Middle (Clarkrange, TN) in the finals. Finished year at 24-2.

They have several really good players. They have 2 good post players. The one that will be at Daniel Boone next year is good but not sure she will be a true post player in high school. From what i have seen though she has the ability to move out and play the 3 as well and be more than capable. The other one will definitely be a post in high school and should be very good as well. She has another year of middle school ball first though. Things look really good for Daniel Boone in the near future.

Thanks for the info on TNT! Sounds like it is good for girls basketball in Tennessee. Also, the girl my friends were talking about is supposed to be 6'3" tall. They said they thought she was going to Boone next year. Told me she was already an accomplished player.

Your friend also said Catons Chapel would easily win the state sectional.
