Which team is Better Ripley, Fayette Ware, Covington or Haywood. Please state why

I say Fayette Ware. With York returning and several other kids stepping up. I think Fayette Ware has a chance to make a deep run this year.

No just Lexington. But I never count SS out. They are always athletic and find a way to win. I mainly stay in the 13 AA area. I think that district is really down since the split. I think a lot of good teams are in the 15 AA and 16 AA and will end up knocking each other out during the regional

you are right. Region 8 is loaded. Fully expect 2 teams from Region 8 to advance to the Boro. I don't see any team in Region 7 beating any of the top 6 teams in region 8.

The only way a Region 7 AA teams has any chance to the Boro is to win the Regional tourney and Host. Still that will be a very hard up hill battle. As you know anything can happen at home.....

But 1 guy will not beat theses good teams he must have help.  Are any of these teams very tall like anything over 6'5?  Lexington has kids about 6'4 and under. If they are all equal in height then the advantage will be athletic ability and until proven different that goes to Southside 

Chester Co. isn't a one man team. Other than the "shooter", the point is athletic, can score, and finds open teammates...they have a wing player that's smooth to the basket and shoots well, and they have some role players who do a good job, the least of which has some size, but hasn't shown much focus or intensity. They're not going to finish first in the district, but you can't have a bad performance against them and not worry about the loss.

There is no doubt that Chester County is going to be much better this year and will steadily improve the next 2 years and will be a contender once the new coach gets his culture established. Coming from a college head coaching position to high school is a transition and it is also a huge culture shock for the program. Chester is not to be overlooked for sure.
