District 7A

Early in the season but what are everyone's thoughts? Clay has to be the clear cut favorite for the district and region lead by Key. They trounced Van Buren at VB by almost 30. Key is averaging 40+ppg and doesn't show any signs of slowing.

 

I think 2-5 is a toss up. Monterey got some good transfers and have shown some promise. Even though PC and JC are down they are always in the mix. Clarkrange only lost to Monterey by 1 so I feel 2-5 are close.

I watched Clay vs RBS the other night.  No one can match up against Key however this team will miss the presence of Mabry in the middle.  I don't think they are as good as they were last year at this point in the season but they are still the best team in 7A.  I'm with you on 2-5 and a really good team will be sitting home during the region tournament.

I agree. Lack of size will hurt them even more if they make it to the glass house.

 

However Clay beat a talented and tall Wayne County KY team in Monticello tonight. Key had 44 or something again.

Agreed that Clay is the best but Pickett County hasn't lost to  an "A" team. They lost to LA by 3 and beat unbeaten Stone Memorial 80-69 after leading by 20. Clarkrange lost to them. Jackson Co is what, about 1-5?

JC won their 2nd game of the season but they have talent, this is not a bad team and i look for them to make some noise come tourney time.  PC will lose to Clay County this year in Celina, now in Byrdstown i'm not so sure but i am sure that i'll be there to watch it since i no longer coach.  Lots of free time!! haha

I would agree. PC is an extremely hard place to play along with c-range. However I don't feel anyone in the district and region will touch Clay this year at either gym. Clay has two strong road wins in VB and Wayne County, KY so they know how it feels to win in hostile territory.

 

If Key continues to average 40+ppg then it will be hard for any 7A team to get close. Either way I feel Coach Aaron has a good thing going up in PC currently but think the loss of offense in the Ferrall kid and graduated seniors hurts PC when going against an offense like CC and the defensive pressure that they bring for the entire game.

 

Granted RBS isn't that good but it was like 70-15 at halftime last night with the final being 101-37. Key had 37 or 40 in practically two quarters of work.

Aaron is not coaching PC. Quit 2 weeks before season started. Joseph Ammonette is coaching this year.

  • 2 weeks later...

I said earlier this week in the 8AA thread that I thought Macon would get there first real test tonight against Clay. I hope I can make the Clay vs Pickett game Jan 17th that may be a decent game.

It was a good game going back and fourth. Macon lead by as much as 10 in the 2nd quarter and Clay lead by as much as 13 in the 4th. Macon hit like 3-4 3s in a row inside 2 mins to make it interesting. Tyreke was too much to handle and was 2 missed free throws from hitting 50.

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
