Man this is a lot of fluff and nonsense.  What is your point putting all this propaganda on T?  We know they are going to be good.  By posting this are you trying  convincing yourself of their talent?

These girls work hard and have for years to get where they are now. These comments were from their coach. What is WRONG with you???? They deserve some recognition.

John,

it just seems like a slight overkill

I will always praise these great kids... the outstanding players and especially those who aren't the top players,  when they do get a chance to play and do well. All these kids put everything into basketball and  most students who are involved in sports do better academically as well.

No-one is saying that the girls don't deserve praise, but let the newspapers write the large articles. Just seems like you got a little excited and went overboard....lol. I'm glad to see that you're a big supporter of the team.

There was NO large article. There were simple quotes. If you want overboard, just wait for the season to start!

If Pickett has a sure d1 prospect as a freshman ,she should average no less than 15 pts a game being a freshman then with the talent comin back should be no problem in winnin the district or even state, but Clarkrange is your 2017 class A runner up state and I agree they look better than they did last year. New game ,new style.

Pickett beat them last year when it counted...in the district tournament and region tournament and PC's Courtney Pritchett was named MVP in both those games over Miss Basketball Kara Meadows. Pickett also played South Greene closer than Clarkrange did. Clarkrange lost Kara Meadows and has no one to replace her. Pickett lost 2 starters and do have players as good, maybe better to replace them.

OK, so Pickett beat Clarkrange in district AND at regions, but Clarkrange got the last laugh by playing in the championship game! And Pritchett can have district & regions MVP because Meadows beat her when it counted most, MISS BASKETBALL !!

Actually, most would argue that this is not the case. Miss Basketball is mostly a newspaper award.... Pritchett I can almost bet would not trade the 2 MVP awards for that because those 2 MVP awards meant that they actually beat CR head to head. Just my two cents on that. 

 

Secondly, CR got an easy draw at the state tournament two years out of the last three. That's a fact Jack. Had they drawn SG twice, or middleton 3 years ago, they would have been ousted in the first round. That being said, the draw is part of it. Ya gotta be a little lucky to win one  of those things. 

 

Last, Clarkrange will be better this year than last. They will play a different style. They replaced Meadows with more speed and athletic ability. The Monday twins will make an immediate impact. Pierce, Howard, and Pyle will also contribute, but not as much as the twins. They will try to play a faster pace, which will make it interesting when they play Pickett because those girls have played that way for a long, long time....

Reality, the best two teams in the state may be from the same district this year. Jackson County will also be better and will be dangerous. Gonna be a fun year.

Play 4 Fun, i was just teasing bobcatfan300. I think both ladies are very satisfied with their achievements and hardware. This season should be alot of fun because i don't think we have a clear-cut number one team   like last year. 

[Play 4 Fun]

I would definitely agree with that!

How could they be better losing Kara Meadows, Miss Basketball? They will be good as always, but losing a player like Kara is HUGE. She scored 45 in the region final!

She might of scored 45 but with her attitude she carried on the floor, clarkrange will be better without her. They play better as a team when she is not on the floor with them. As a clarkrange fan I am excited for the upcoming season and not having to watch her.
