So 2 of these 5 will be at the Glass House?? East TN teams always are better than people think. 

Yes I think Central is definitely going, not so sure about the other team.

We played Gatlinburg-Pittman this summer and they are a pretty good team.

GP and Alcoa have split this season. Central has beaten Alcoa twice. I don’t know if a young Meigs team can go on the road and win. But they all have to get their first.

Watching Page now, and they don't look impressive. #3 is okay, but I don't see much else that catches my eye. Don't think they can handle the pressure defense of South Side OR South Gibson.

I was there too buddy. Wish I could’ve met you! I agree with you though. . . Page was not all that impressive to me either. This was the second time I’ve watched them this year and thought they were just “good” not “great” both times. #3 is pretty good but tends to foul a lot. She fouled out tonight. I think once they play some of the better AAA teams, they’ll get exposed. They’re decent though but not dominant.

If South Side can score 50 a game, they will be very hard to beat. 45 may be all they need with their defense. Never know what might happen late in the year. Always some teams get hot that weren’t hot. Teams that were hot cool off. Never know really what is going to happen. Kinda what makes the tournaments special. The unknown.

was the score 30-10 at the half versus a good Lincoln county team?  i am no coach but as a fan of basketball 43 to 16 is dominant after only three quarters of play and with your top two scorers having played only ten minutes each.

Man!! I went to watch SS when they played South Gibson a couple weeks ago and that defense was furious!! I think they’re ranked 2nd in AAA! Coach McNeal has built a great program there and that defense he coach’s up is scary to play against! Looking at their schedule, they average upper 50-low 60 per game. If they give that with their defense. . . . Ewwww

Teams better watch out for them!

Thank you for the recognition. It feels good to have our program gaining that type of respect. Speaking of the game at Medina, the next day Coach McNeal compared it to a substate atmosphere. I saw him at church 2 days after the game, told him how proud I was of all their hard work. Told him 'I think we took another step on that night'. (Meaning toward the St Tournament and who knows what more) @HawkGuy06 and I had a front row seat that night.

Referencing the original postings picks in 3A, the SS girls have 2 wins each over 3 of the teams mentioned. Medina, Fayette Ware and Covington. All three of the road trips were in super hostile environments.

Gaining confidence.

Yeah, that was the score, but that record of Lincoln Co. is nothing man. They are not that good of a team AT ALL!! They had more “unforced” turnovers than points. It was a lot of home cooking going on too! Your refs are terrible and you could definitely tell they like Page. No, that wasn’t the reason for the win, but they weren’t going to ever let that game get close. . . LC is not good. . . Page is again good but not great. Maybe it was a bad night for them. . . #3 seems pretty good but fouled out. #00 plays ZERO defense! #23 was OK. . . Can’t remember anyone else, but I wasn’t impressed.
