Is Wilson Central the 2nd best team in the state?

The team was looking unstoppable until they were plagued by injuries. Now that the injuries seem to have healed, the team is playing great again. Even with one of the top players on the team injured for the Mt. Juliet (#1 State, #5 Nation), the Lady Wildcats still managed to stay close, and only lose by 6, giving Mt Juliet, by far, their best competition of the year.

 

In the last 4 games, they beat Gallatin by 45, a good Hendersonville team by 29, and a bad LaVergne team by 52.

 

what are your opinions?

Mt. Juliet hit about 22 - 27 foulshots (81%)

Central only hit 4 - 17 foulshots ((23%)

If Central had shot their normal 75 - 80% then they would have scored 10 - 12 more points. Difference in the game was 6. It is also hard to believe Mt. Juilet went to the foul line 27 times.

 

Both teams played great and have earned the spotlight.

4-17 free throwing shooting is just so uncharacteristic of Central. Especially when its Gassie and Jenkins who were shooting the free throws.

 

With Sara back by then, that is huge. And I will tell you what, with the experience the backups are now getting, and the signs of improvement they have shown, I think the Wildcats are looking like a team who could make a serious run at state.

 

As for #2 in state, hard to say. So many good teams cluttered up there you can make an argument for any of them. Mt. Juliet is the undisputed #1, and to say otherwise is homerism.

To say that a team should have won a game, is like sayin well..... if gassie would have gotten a steal on so and so play, taken it down, drained a three, then the game would have totally been ours. Stuff like that is all up in the air. your right, Central did have a bad night from the line, but MJ going 3 for 13 from the 3-point line? It would have gotten really interesting if MJ was hittin the 3's and Central was shootin free throws well. Feb. 8th should be a good one!!
