Macon vs Grainger- Championship

[tnchad1980]

Macon dismisses 1 loss Northview and Grainger dismisses 1 loss Westview.... does Macon finally break through or does Grainger take the gold back to the land of the tomatoes?

I have Macon County by 12. Grainger is a good team too. Both teams will press you and the style shouldn’t be slow. I just think Macon is big time focused right now and are on a mission. Seen that look yesterday when I watched them. No disrespect to Grainger though. I still think Macon is mad about last years cancelled tournament and will not be denied.

Just not sure Macon can match-up with Grainger. Who would guard Grainger's big girl? She is more of a guard than a post. Kill you on the 3 or take you in the post. Macon is really quick but Grainger plays some killer defense. Either way great match up! It will be a great game.

I have Grainger by 10.  They have played a super tough schedule to get to this.  Two similar teams.  I think this is Grainger's year.

I agree.  If Macon gets in foul trouble do they have subs?  I only saw one sub.

Looks as if both teams have played tough schedules!

Have you seen Macon County’s post?  No ones been able to guard her yet!   So that dog won’t hunt.

Macon has ridden that starting 5 through the meat grinder known as 8AA so they should be good but it does show how freaking good last season’s team was since they lost 4 players (3 starters) and got back to the big game.

That don’t mean nothing if they don’t get in foul trouble. They looked like they got stronger as game went on when I watched them.

If Grainger can shoot like they have, they can win, a very mediocre Livingston team beat Macon cause they shot the 3 well. And Grainger is much better than LA.

I've been singing the praises of Grainger on this message board since the big kids of today were Sophomores in 2019. Grainger is long, lanky and Deep. (Your point about the "Macon Five" is well taken.)

Grainger will be able to run with Macon, especially on the defensive end of the court. Keep your eyes on #5 Tori Rutherford when she plays D. Tonight's game against a very good Westview team barely scratched the surface.
