2018-2019 Miss Basketball Nominations

[uconnfan]

Jada Guinn has some really nice stats for her career at Oak Ridge and should be considered for Miss Basketball in 3AAA. Gracee Dishman has had a great career at Cumberland County and I seen her play as a freshman against 3AAA Riverdale in Sub State and as a Sophomore in sub state and scored over 30 both games and then has played really well in 2AA the last two years since they went to 2AA. I think she is a front runner in 2AA Miss Basketball. I also like Chole Moore from Greenfield in1A. I saw her and Dishman play against each other in AAU this summer and they both put on a show. It was a very good game. Whitson from Dobbs-Bennett in 3AAA has very good stats and has over 2000 points and 1000 rebounds and is a very good player and fun to watch. She has had a great career there. I really like Jayla Hemingway at Houston 3AAA and seen her play AAU and is fun to watch but I don't know her stats. Cassie Monday at Clarkrange in 1A is a great player to consider for a nomination. Riverdale in 3AAA has Aislynn Hayes and ive seen her play and is a very good player but I haven't seen her stats but I know she was nominated with Dishman, Whitson, Hemingway, Williams, Waggoner for McDonalds All-American. Don't Know anything about Williams from Arlington but have seen Waggoner play at Ensworth and she can play and deserves a chance.

Class A definitely Deserving in my opinion, no certain order: 

Chloe Moore and Tess Darby (Greenfield), Aaliyah Brown (Pickett), Kenzie Arms and Taylor Strong (Clay Co)

How you get that list to 3, I am not sure haha. 

 

Class AA: Keely Carter/Jalyn Gregory (Macon County), Gracee Dishman (Cumberland), Wykle from South Green. IMO Wykle is a tough kid to beat for this award. A 2 time state champion, 4.0 GPA, ultimate competitor, and amazing stats, as well as 2,000 career points while missing a complete season. IMO, shes a tough kid to beat. Dishman will end up with 3,000 in her career though, so although the team stats haven't been as good, 3,000 is amazing. Tough to ever get that.

Reagan Hurst from Upperman.  Brooklyn Crouch from Upperman as well for AA.  Hurst is sophomore and has stepped up and led her team to the #1 ranking in AA.  Crouch is a freshmen and if you don’t know who she is you soon will.  She can play with anyone.

In no particular order:

A - Chloe Moore, Tess Darby, Karly Weathers

Will probably come down to Moore and Darby, but their votes could split and Weathers win it as a Freshman.

AA - Keeley Carter, Gracee Dishman, Braelyn Wykle

Have watched all of these play and depends on everyone's definition of Miss Basketball;  could see any of them get it.

AAA - Jayla Hemmingway, Jada Guinn, Courtney Whitson

Again, have watched all three play and depends on voter's definition of Miss Basketball.

She's a great player, who is carrying that team. (Some young players are making strides, though). The competition is always tough for these awards. I hope she gets nominated, at the very least. That and win the AA Championship and I believe she will be happy. South Greene players put the team first. Always have.

I have watched Riverdale basketball all my life and they have been dominating and Hayes should be in Miss Basketball. And I have seen Dishman play at Riverdale twice in the sub-state against both Hayes girls her sophomore and freshman year and averaged around 30 and that's in 3AAA. So her team has done very well and Riverdale won the state and last year they lost to Macon in regionals and she had 34. Cumberland County has had a lot of success in 3AAA and 2AA. Wykle has had a great career but Dishman has played at a high level of competition so everyone needs to remember that. Riverdales Hayes deserves a chance because she has really played the best of the best and has led her team to a lot of wins against nationally ranked competition. I try to comment on players that I have seen play and these girls can play.

That AA district Cumberland County plays in is a real high level of competition.LOL.  Most of those games are over after the first quarter.

Cumberland county just kicked the stuffing out of white county at Sparta, and Dishman had 38, which is more than she’s scored in any district game, since she only gets to play less than half of each of those games

Cumberland county’s non-district schedule includes 10 games against ranked teams.  I challenge you to find a tougher non district schedule.  Dishman’s average is higher against the ranked teams than district opponents.  Do a little research or actually watch some games before you criticize a player or team, so you can avoid looking so ignorant. 

[ADMIRAL]

The post referred to DISTRICT teams!  Another poster commented on how high the level of competition was for Cumberland.  Go do a little research on the combined records and strength of schedule of the DISTRICT teams that CC plays.   If you weren't such a CC homer you might realize that the level of DISTRICT competition is not on the same level as 8AA or your former 6AAA.  There is no way that your DISTRICT schedule is getting you ready for a possible game with Macon or Upperman in the region.  CC will not be able to speed up Macon or Upperman.
