I'm not familiar with Region 3-AAA, I am from Middle/West TN. Who is the favorite to win the Region Championship? How does EH and WV compare to Oakland and Blackman (sub-state match ups) in your opinion?

Walker Valley finished the season 4th in District 5AAA with a 7-5 record & East Hamilton was tied for 2nd @ 9-3.

They split this year with East Ham winning by 6 at home in January & WV winning by 16 at home in February.

Bob Williams usually get his teams to peak at tournament time, so I would put WV as a slight favorite at a neutral site.

However, WV lost their 2 best players from last year & are not as talented as the team that went to the Glass House last March. No idea how they will fare in the Sectionals.

FootballFan, thanks. 
 

No doubt WV or EH want to win to stay away from Blackman, but Oakland has shot the ball well recently. Biggest difference from the Blaze and the Patriots is experience. Oakland has had 1 freshman and 2 sophomores playing the majority of the game in recent contests. Blackman is senior led and is definitely the better of the two.

Coaching wise, Workman has done done wonders since being at Blackman.

Bond at Oakland has now been to 7 (maybe 8) Sectionals since opening the basketball program at Wilson Central in 2001. 

 

Looking forward to each Sectional, Good Luck to all teams. 

Hoping for great games!

hard to fathom that Cleveland beat East Hamilton by 30 in the District Championship & they are not going to Sectionals...

that's the beauty of the tournament. I knew we would struggle to beat WV for a 4th time, they played us better than anyone in district 5. They were due to get us. Edited by clevelandblueraiderfan

    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
