I watched Greenfield and Gleason last night and they both played slower than expected. Neither team pressed hardly at all. Greenfield is playing good ball right now. I fell asleep watching the Gleason/ Greenfield game last night . Man i cant stand that slow ball but it works in Greenfields favor against their rivals. I would have loved to watch the Greenfield and Union City game tonight. Two very different teams on paper and two contrasting styles going at it. You can tell that Greenfield is improving and playing a lot better as the season is going along. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bennett 18 and Katie Chesser 16 for the Lady Rebels. Tonight was our First district title since 1966! Really impressed with our ability to hit the long ball and creating our own drives to the basket. Tonight was probably Lilly Bennett's best game all year. And we beat them for the 3rd time!!!! I guess all the girls who moved in or were recruited in didn't really help.

Huntingdon has a great team with some young pieces that will be tough to handle when they get to be upper classmen. Brooklyn Williams is there best player this year and they will certainly miss her presence once she graduates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VOLnWTN Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 First half was sloppy and I think we came out trying to play too fast. At half time, we came out looked to be more controlled. What really got us going was Katie Chesser coming off the bench and nailing two 3’s back to back. That started it. Bennett did a great job of splitting defenders or pulling up and popping those mid range jumpers. There were a few times she dishes it when she could have taken it to the hoop. Lorettos coaches were here scouting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To beat Mckenzie you better hope they have an off night shooting and you need good post play. If they have a weakness it is post defense, the Fillies had plenty of good looks and just couldn’t finish. Very excited for the future of the fillies. The freshman and sophomore classes are talented and they have an 8th grade group that was 16-1 this season that will join them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told my wife last night if H'Town would have put Postlewaite and Singleton down low and fed them the ball, we would have our hands full. Good scrappy game until the third when Chesser started firing those 3's and it sort of ignited the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure if it was flipped and she got a job here we wouldn't be complaining. Happens everywhere. So no need to throw that jab at Huntingdon. Win w/ class....lose with class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huntingdon and McKenzie will be tough a while. They will be solid. McKenzie may be the pre-season number 1 next year in Single A and for that matter may win it all this year. They keep on winning. Loretto and McKenzie will be a sure enough dogfight if they both survive the first round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pioneer42 Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 Also have to give Greenfield and Gibson County credit for winning the District again as both teams lost a LOT of really good players. Both coaches have done fantastic jobs. Union City, Gleason, Peabody and Bradford still in it as the battle to the big dance begins. Good luck to all in the Region.
