I'll do the West top 5:

1. Westview

2. Covington

3. Lexington

4. Chester County

5. Dyersburg

I have to disagree with 3 and 4. I dont think Lexington will be any better than they were this year. They lose #20 and #22 to graduation and transfer. Guard play will be weak outside of #23. Taylor will hold down her end as usual. CC loses the point but bring back 2 guards who arent what they have been hyped up to be. I think Dyersburg has a say so in 13AA and Covington SHOULD be back in 15AA. I am not counting out South Side, i think theyll fly under the radar with the two bigs returning and im sure they will bring in some good talent as they always do.

Covington and Westview will have the best chances in AA. Also don’t sleep on South Side either, I know they’ll lose a 2,000 point scorer, but they have a talented freshman that will be really good next year. I know the Westview/South Side matchups are great games, and I don’t expect Coach McNeal to have an average team next year and use Miller as the scapegoat, they’ll be good as well.

Macon returns everyone.... after reading their press clippings a little too early this year, they'll be poised for another big run...

Upperman was loaded with young talent and will benefit from a year of experience

Dekalb is my sleeper team to watch.... strong AAU summers have gotten this team to contender status.... remember, they lost one of their better players to an ACL around Christmas and still made it to M-Boro

Cumberland Co loses a ton but depending on where the good Crossville girls decide to prep, they should easily win their district

Don’t sleep on Meigs County.  I only saw them play once but I believe they started 5 sophomore and they could play...

Real interested to see the 8th grader for Westview come in. They say Union City has a really good 8th grader coming in as well.

Isn’t Union City single A??

Yes they are but they say she is a beast too. Had some 40 point performances.

Meigs should have a good team next year with all starters returning and a deeper bench. Game time coaching decisions seems to be their biggest issue.

I know Coach Powell pretty well, and take offence to your comment! I'd say he has done better then any coach in that district with the talent he has the last couple of years.

Meigs has a good team but there really not that deep. He will play 7 girls which all have started, against good competition.

The guy simply has a opinion. And most Meigs fans would agree, and most will disagree with your opinion. But everyone is entitled to one.

Wholeheartedly agree with you, Mad. Love Coach Powell coaching our girls.

South Greene graduates four seniors, including Miss Basketball finalist, Braelyn Wykle. Next year's team will include no seniors. I'm not convinced that this year's younger players will have matured enough to make it to the state.

You can point to the 2016 Class A championship team when SG had no seniors, but that team included Taylor Lamb, Lindsay Cutshaw and Wykle.

There may be a player or two who will come in as Freshman and will make a difference next year. I hope so, but getting to the state is not an easy task. South Greene is more likely to make "state" when this year's sophomores are seniors.

I believe that next season's dominant team in the East will be Grainger. I've seen them play twice this year and they will be older and improved next season.
