Bighurt...Thanks for the info. WOW! Five Dist. 7-AAA teams in the top 10 and Lawrence Co. not in the top 10 at all.

[Guest BHS37075]

in todays tennessean it had an even more recent midstate top 10 poll but for some reason it is not showing up on their website so i'll just type it for you all.

 

1-shelbyville (13-1): eaglettes turn their attention to in-state opponents this month.

2-white county (13-1):amanda lewis and natalee anderson are playing well on the perimeter

3-jackson county (11-4): daunting schedule remains tough with cookeville tomorrow.

4-beech (15-1):took first loss of season at christian county despite dana carrigan's 29 points.

5-cookeville (11-4): ashley taylor hopes to stay hot with jackson county up next.

6-lawrence county (11-4):back in poll,where they belong after thumping riverdale.

7-riverdale (12-4): three consecutive losses have the team itching for a win over white county.

8-blackman (11-5):between now and jan 17, the blaze will find out what it's made of.

9- oakland (10-3):key 7AAA games with cookeville and lebanon the next two fridays.

10- celina (15-0): outlasts franklin road academy 57-56 to remain unbeaten.

Hey way to go 7AA. I personally think thta with the district being as hard as it is the teams in that district seem to have to push it even harder to make it there. This good competition has made many of these teams some of the best in the state.

That district may be a little tough but its nothing like 8AAA. Look for 8AAA to take it to the house during the Region tournament.

remember, this is not a poll, but basically a listing.

 

jeff does it for the tennesean from info received and observation.

 

a takes more than one person voting to be a poll

ArcticCommando....Anybody that knows 7-AAA and 8-AAA knows that 7-AAA top to bottom this year is better than 8-AAA. It won't surprise me at all is 7-AAA gets three wins in the first round of the region tourney. Shelbyville being the only winner.

When all is said and done, who cares who is stronger from top to bottom? Only 2 out of region go to sub-state. You seem to have a problem with Lawrence Co. (they've beaten Riverdale and Oakland in a fall game) and Coffee Co. (they beat Riverdale) on getting the number 2 spot for the sub-state. Head to head both have beaten 7-aaa teams. That seems to leave Cookeville and White County as the teams you believe will get the number 2 spot. We will see. There is no question that Shelbyville will be one of the teams and based on records and who is beating who, I think Lawrence County will be number 2. I do believe that 7-aaa is evenly matched between 4 teams and whoever is playing the best at that time of the year will win the district tournament. All 4 teams are very good, but LCHS can beat any one of the 4 and have done so to 2 of them this year. Coffee Co. has also let it be known that the top 3 in district 8-aaa are more than ready to square off with any in district 7-aaa, and take no backseat to any of them. Only time and the regional tournament will tell. We're looking forward to it.

Since this poll, Riverdale has beaten White Co. and Cookeville has beaten Jackson Co. I think it's strange that someone has picked the best ten teams from Middle Tennessee and Livingston Academy isn't one of them. They and Jackson Co. play tomorrow night.

Shelbyville is 20 pts. better than anyone else in the region. Can they be beaten? yes. But they are by far the best team! I think Lawrence Co. and Cookeville are in a close race for 2nd. I think Coffee Co, and Riverdale are battling for the next spot with the ability to beat both LC and Cookeville. White Co. is right after those 2. I think from there it is all 7 AAA. Oakland, Lebanon, Blackman, and Warren Co. before you get back to 8 AAA and Franklin Co, Columbia, Tullahoma, and Lincoln Co.
