GoMab/ Raleigh Egypt

Raleigh Egypt went back to the Sportsmed Shootout this year in Huntsville and that's where the two losses came from. The first game was against Montgomery Carver with three highly recruited DI prospects, and the Pharaohs lost, having led at half and then shooting 12.5% the second half to lose. The next two games were against Brewer and Birmingham Southside which were good teams but were blow outs for the Pharaohs. In the Southside game, THREE Raleigh Egypt players sustained injuries: Carlton Peete (turf toe), Barry Dickerson (groin pull) and Bryant Williams (bruised side). The Pharaohs played in the consolation bracket championship but with out these three, lost to Sparkman. Michael Joyner was named to the all tournament team.

 

Since returning, the Pharaohs have reeled off three blow outs vs. Cordova, Kirby and Fayette Ware and are still nursing the injured back to life. This Friday's upcoming game with White Station at White Station will be tough without everyone at 100%, but should be a good game regardless.

Raleigh Egypt is going to be the best team in the Memphis Metro this year its no team in this state that they can't beat they can't beat anybody in the state They will go to state this year and will be hard to beat so give this team some respect

make your mind up, they either can or can't beat anyone in the state not both! Ridgeway and White Station both may have something to say whether they go undefeated in Mmphis this year. RE is a top 3 team in AA though.

It will be tough for Raleigh Egypt to go undefeated in Memphis this year given the strength of their schedule. But, fortunately for them, you don't have to be undefeated to get to the state. All you have to do is get hot in the tournaments and everyone has the chance to do that. But given their young talent and the fact that the 8AA Regional Tournament is on their home floor, I like their chances. White Station and Ridgeway will be a tall order for anyone to beat on their home floors, but, since they are both the defending State Champions, everyone is shooting for them and they have to play good every night.

Raleigh-Egypt may be the best in AA this year, but they are not the best team in Memphis. That would be their former arch-rivals, the White Station Spartans.
