Maryville Rebels beat West Rebels 61-48 at West Rebels gym. Maryville Rebels should be able to win by more than 13 points tonight at home. Home court advantage is worth 7 points for the home team. Maryville Rebels will not be able to mercy rule West Rebels though in this game. I guarantee it. West Rebels are to good to let it happen. I am Captain Guru and I approve this message.

East Tennessee is wild this year. A lot of parity. About 10 teams can beat the other on any given night. Should make for fun tournament play.

Maryville looked really good in beating the defending 2A State Champion Alcoa 80-54.  Every player for Maryville played well. If I was a coach from ETSU,Tennessee Tech,UT Chattanooga,UT Martin,Austin Peay or other small colleges in Tennessee I would be offering Alex Akard right now. That kid can play. He caused Alcoa to miss a bunch of shots last night. He can pass the ball well also. Maryville Basketball will be darn good the next few seasons. Jonathon Woodley is a stud. He has a great shot to be a D1 player one day.

Agree 100% RR. I’m also a big fan of #22. He really competes.

You've also got Luke Sigmund coming back next year from injury.  The Akard kid is really good, but I think Luke will add even more of a weapon in the post spot because of his athleticism.  Will need to develop some physicality, but I think he will do that.  I expect Maryville to make some trips to Murfreesboro , maybe this year, for sure the next couple.

I think STARS is offering free garbage service to the basketball team now. LOL
