McKenzie vs Huntland

[VOLnWTN]

I haven't had a chance to watch any film yet on Huntland other than the end of their game last night.  I see they are big!  Can they run the floor?  What about their guard play?  Can they handle a press like McKenzie will show them? 

Should be a good one at Bethel on Saturday night!

I have seen Huntland play but only a couple of times.  Really good size and #14  and #21 appeared to be good players in the games I saw.  Also #31 has good size, but there wasn’t a ton of production in the games I watched.  I don’t see Huntland having much of an opportunity to win this game as I think the McKenzie pressure will force enough turnovers to win easily.  McKenzie is the much faster team so I suppose for Huntland to have any chance then it will have to really control the tempo.  I just don’t think the Lady Hornets will be able to do that

Huntland fans.  I wish you safe travels.  One of the most important things about traveling is where to eat. Here is what I would suggest in McKenzie in no particular order.

Bethel has Chick Fila on campus in Crisp Arena

McKenzie by fiddy! I haven’t seen Huntland but y’all will pressure them the entire game, if their guards isn’t productive it will be a long night for them. I can assure you I will not take overtime for y’all to bet them! 
 

McKenzie 60

 

Huntland 45

I suggest the CMT.  Chorizo, chicken, shrimp, steak in a nice chipolte sauce with rice and beans.  I actually don't get the beans and get extra rice.

I’ve watched plenty of tape on both teams and saying they will win easily is far fetched. McKenzie has speed and gets plenty of steals but Huntland has good guard play and is alot bigger. If huntland gets into a half court set against them then they will have a field day down on the low block. Huntland has a chance to upset them if they limit turnovers to under 15

Should be a competitive game, but I'm picking the Lady Rebels by 14. Go Lady Rebels!!

Yes it could be close if Huntland can establish the pace it desires, but I think McKenzie will force enough turnovers that Huntland will be playing catch-up and unable to play at a slower pace and utilize its size.

Yeah you’re right McKenzie is way better. Huntland stands no chance of throwing over the top of the first trap

I don’t think Huntland will turn it over every time, but McKenzie forces plenty of turnovers against virtually everyone.  Huntland has size advantage, and #14 will be a tough matchup in particular — but Davis and the Reynolds’ sisters will be even tougher matchups for Huntland.  At the end, I think McKenzie will be in front by a comfortable margin

We did the radio broadcast of both McKenzie games against SS. The folks in Carroll County are hospitable and welcome all with open arms.

Because they usually win.

And will win this one as well.
