ROCKWOOD

[JJ4OHS]

The tigers got off to a hot start.... but here lately they seem to have some problems. They lost to wartburg and harriman... and we (oakdale) just about pulled one out last night... Is it they are just not that good or are they the sleeper in our district.... You also got to remember they lost some big players from last year... but i dont think that is the problem... they are having trouble now but come tourney time they will probably step up like always and find ways to win.

Have saw them play only once so I really dont know,but a guy I work with says they dont have enough basketballs and hes saw almost every game.

They simply stink

[TheChsnOne2223]

Actually i woundlt say that they simply stink and Im saying that and I play for one of Rockwoods rivals in Knoxville.Coach K will have them ready by tourney time if theyre goin through a lil slump right now in which all teams do but trust me the ydo stink but theyll be ready by tourney time watch and see. And losing to Wartburg isnt bad at all they are a good team but for harriman from what i heard this year is i guess we can say a "REBUILDING" year.

Any given night a team can mess up... But in the end I think that the Tigers are gonna come out on top and do excellent in the tourneys

The Tiger ship is fine. They let one slip away at Wartburg and could have lost last night, but Rockwood is a team that's going to be in a lot of close games and Coach K is ine with that.

They simply need to get some of the new faces accustomed to playing in close games.

On the perimeter, it seems to me that when the game is on the line that everybody on the floor is wanting Corey to take charge. Corey is definitely that type player, but they need some of the younger players to step up when the game is on the line.

Last night, I thought Billy Moffitt played well down the stretch and made plays, but they need more consistency.

In the paint, I think Jamie is really coming along and Butler is solid. Willis and Zack are both capable players, but they don't have a lot of experience in close games at Rockwood. They will only improve, but like in the outside players, they need to step up and show they can make plays when the game is on the line.

Also, give Oakdale some credit. They beat Oneida and lost at Harriman by just one in overtime. I don't think the Eagles can crack the top four as far as the tournament seeds go, but they can definitely end someone's season in the opening round of the district tournament.

Rockwood is good but so are Harriman and Wartburg. Harriman is very athletic but they can't depend on that in tourney time and Wartburg usually gets up by runs then go cold, so I would have to give Rockwood the advantage over these teams because they play the best D and can go on big runs. Oakdale hits their shots and if another team goes cold then they have a chance of winning. Rockwood and Oneida will be a good game Friday and we will see how Rockwood rebounds from their lackluster showing at Oakdale.

I can not wait for the tournament to begin to hush the critics. Harriman is going to run away with the title with ease. None of these other so called "contenders" deserve to be on the same court as the Devils. Where is the District tourny being held this year?

[Ro8432]

I cna't wait for Harriman to come to Oneida, we'll see how good they are. Rockwood slipped up and let them win but that won't happen again either, harriman isn't as good as last year and they won't make it to the District 'ship.

Try spell check, junior.
