Pearl Cohn vs Upperman

[knightsfan]

Bees by 6-8 on the back of Levy the tournament MVP. I expect Maynard to have a good game as well since she has been fairly cold during this run.

This is what I am expecting. A close game. I think the thing that might hurt PC is what happened today. They were up by 20 in 4th quarter and let GP back in the game. They do that for a minute against Upperman, and it is probably over.

Hey i sat in the rain and watched the ND game brother! Loved that run Upperman had for sure....

not a steady stream of consistent athletes but that was a good year. I think UHS by 6 tomorrow.

I think this one could be close if PC plays to their potential. Pulling for PC but something tells me this is uppermans year.

Upperman all the way!! Go bees!! Its time!!

If Levy guards Sandifer, who's gonna guard Shaw?? Game Pearl-Cohn.

Gracie Maynard, the second quickest kid on the team. Who is gonna guard her, if she gets the hot hands? She scored 42 in agame this year.

Thing that would concern me about Pearl-Cohn is lack of depth. Played only 6 today and the sub only played 5 minutes. That may have contributed to G-P's run in the 4th. My pick is Upperman but I'm not in to calling spreads.

Upperman better team plus Levy best player equals Upperman by 12. Just my opinion which isn't worth much.

Don't start with the "oh we aren't any good" stuff. Pearl Cohn is a quality team we all know this. Upperman needs to get over the hump and finally win a gold ball. That in itself will be challenging enough let alone playing a good team like PC. If both teams play up to their potential then yes Upperman wins easily however we are talking about 17-18 kids and as we all know anything can happen at the Murphy Center.

If both teams play up to their potential, Upperman wins easily? Easily? Poor comment. Clueless comment. P-C is the most talented team in the state, not the best team but the most talented AA team. Those posts aren't incredibly skilled, but they'll make it difficult to score once Upperman gets into the lane. Shaw is the quickest player in the state. Sandifer has played well in the tournament so far and is savvy. The quiet one has been Nelson, who can shoot it from the perimeter. Don't sleep on her, or she'll have 12-15 on 3-balls. It should be a good game. Levy is very good, but it won't be easy once she penetrates into the lane tomorrow. She may draw fouls, but she won't get easy baskets. Upperman will get some shots from the perimeter. If they knock them down, it might be gold. If not, Pearl-Cohn may be the third consecutive state champion from District 10-AA.

Preppy have to be homer . This team most talented in AA . Then how in the world you get boat raced by east in Regionsl final . I love Shaw but here is whst I do and it's a huge gamble cause there is no Shaw on the bench . I X Levy with Shaw she doesn't touch it if she does she is doubled not by Maynard man though if so everybody rotates . Maynard no open looks . The gamble is Shaw gets in foul trouble . Love you alls coach just not sure she will go to those tactics because of the gambles . If not this might be a repeat of the regional final . Pearl Cohn being boat raced .

No disrespect meant to PC they've beaten the teams that were put in front of them but they definitely got the better end of the draw.  Putting JCS/East and Upperman on one side allowed them to make it to the championship game.  No way they beat either of those three teams especially Southside.  The more i watch the other teams play the more i think they were the best team outside of Upperman.  However there is still one more game to be played and you cannot take it for granted.  Coach McWilliams has never won a state championship and that has to be a mental challenge for her at this point, but she's coached in several so that in itself is an advantage as is her teams advantage having played in this game last year.  She is a very good coach and if she can get over the hump and win her first gold ball i see many more to come for her and her teams.  I know i'm pulling for her and the girls from Upperman!  Bring it home Lady Bee's its time!
