District tournament is a big deal for Summertown and Loretto.  Winner will not be challenged in region until the championship.  Loser will have a really tough game in the semifinal against Cheatham County.  

Going to Summertown or Loretto is a long drive to really tough place to play for Westview, Gibson or Huntingdon.  But those three are much more talented than Summertown and Loretto this year.  

You seen Westmoreland?? Did they lose some from last year?? They actually beat York in Region Finals last year I am thinking.

Saw film of a couple games. They defend well.  Their coach does a good job.  I don't think they have the scorers to play with York this year.  They could still get to state as the rest of their section (Cannon Co, Community, East Nashville) all are pretty equal.

I hadn’t seen much of either York or Westmoreland. I agree if your talking about Region 5 and 6. Summertown and Loretto are always dangerous. I am not even thinking that program right now. We have our hands full with Huntingdon and getting out of the Region. We have to be focussed.

Central has beaten Alcoa and Bradley Central this year. Got a team that is really good that won’t be in the Boro, Only two of Alcoa, McMinn Central and Gatlinburg Pittman will be there, right??? 

 

McMinn Central will be tough to handle in the Round-House. Will have an easy time getting to the Sub-State game against the loser or the Alcoa-GP game.

Definitely a top 5 team won’t be there. East is strong again this year.

I would play them a zone like Westview did last year. They had all kinds of trouble with it. They are a good team though. May work may not.

It will be a cake walk to the Substate game.  It's been a long time since Central made it to the State Tourney, but should this year.  Next season they should be one of the favorites to win it all.  
I'm still amazed how Molly Masingale was overlooked as one of the finalists for Miss Basketball.

Don't forget that it was Molly and other sophomores and juniors on the team that won a Middle School State Championship. And there are sophomores and juniors on the team that were the second best Middle School team that same year.  
They may be a season away, but they'll be phenomenal in 2023-2024.

 

Sorry I know this is an old thread but I’m just reading this. I have a stupid question.  I know McMinn Central is AA but did Molly play on a class A team for that middle school championship year?  My daughters played for South Fulton in a championship game that same year and played against a girl named Molly that was really good.

That was a good game. Free throws were huge for GC. Hart had a heck of a game too
