Cookeville hasn't gotten calls all year so it will be par for the course regardless of where the refs are from. As long as they aren't the same group from Rhea county we are used to it! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a good (not great) team anyway, but they average about 10 more free-throw attempts at home versus their opponents. I think Bradley, Cookeville, Stone, and East Hamilton survives to the quarterfinals - with the only chance of it being different is Rhea beating East Hamilton. Oh don't get me wrong. I have saw them play. I know that Cookeville or White County would have to play a perfect game to beat them. But for Bradley to win the region they will have to most likely beat the best 3 teams in 6AAA. Not saying they won't do it. But to me that puts them in the toughest bracket. I may be completely wrong because I have only seen them play twice but the talent gap isn't as large as it has been in the past. Should be fun to watch.

I have seen all of the teams in both regions play. Bradley definitely has the toughest bracket. Cookeville has given stone all they wanted all 3 games they have played especially last night. White county isn’t playing well but they have some ballers. I expect WC to make a game of it. But Bradley’s pressure could force WC into too many turnovers and blow them out. Cookeville has beaten Cleveland twice this year. I think we are playing well enough to make it 3 in a row. Similar size teams but Cookeville has a deeper bench. I believe it will be Cookeville vs Bradley in next round. On other side of bracket. Stone should handle Mcminn with their size advantage. I don’t see how this is too close. Stone is playing great and just too big. East Hamilton vs Rhea puzzles me. How did Rhea win that game earlier this year? I think Hayes scores 30 and Hampton scores 30. If Rhea shoots the 3 like they did last night this will be a game. Ultimately, I think 14 is just too good for a team as small as Rhea. EH should win. Stone vs EH will be a battle of the bigs. Should be a close game. Brackets here http://brackets.jim314.com/ dont sleep on hampton. can score on anyone, any night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanky13 Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 Regional tournaments have refs from different areas, switch them up. Only time you might know them is when you played non-district games, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland girls havent had the talent to challenge the Bearettes for the past decade. I havent went in to Jim Smiddy expecting a Lady Raider win in a long time, but you know your team is in for a long night when a certain ref is calling the game.

I was telling you not to pay attention to BlitzenBuc’s excuses about officiating & # of free throws at Bradley games. Region games are called by out of town officials.
