MBA beat Summit Tuesday night.  And finished ahead of Summit in the Ryan Tournament.

Yeahhh looking at the box score. It wasnt near the same lineup they had for FR. 

 

This point in the season, against a team they wouldnt see in the post season. Its clear the dual didnt really mean a whole lot. 

 

Unless you're suggesting MBA has a better team than Father Ryan?

Why is anyone crying about starters being out of the lineup or where they are ranked at this time of the year?  The only time anyone should care about rankings is the last rankings of the season and unless you win a state championship you lost and the difference between 2nd and 8th really doesn’t matter.  Unless a team is extremely fortunate they will all have to deal with injuries throughout the season.

Bradley is gonna get a couple more shots at cleveland this year. This was supposed to have been then year that they would beat them. If it doesn’t happen this year it won’t happen again for at least 5 years and that’s being modest. The atmosphere last night was nuts. 

Agreed on the atmosphere.  Just amazing for a high school match. Bradley may be able to flip 220 and HWT but those are probably the only ones.  One issue is that Bradley’s 3 hammers typically get them 18 points against most teams but against Cleveland they only got 11 last night.  Barring  Cleveland injuries, everything would have to go perfect for Bradley to get the upset … but that’s why they wrestle the matches.

No.  They may well be though, we'll know at the state tournament.  Ryan was missing 3-4 starters against Summit.  Summit may have been missing some too.  Just pointing out the absurdity of pre tournament rankings.  Makes for interesting board banter, but it will all shake out at state.

195 could easily gone the other way too and could be flipped, based on what I watched.

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
