Class 1 Final 4 predictions and State Championship prediction????

If they haven't posted 10 games, they aren't eligible for ranking...could be it? Otherwise I'm sure they would be??
 
Well, Glasgow picked up another loss (to Class 2 New Franklin) then Beat Meadville by 5, Stanberry won a close one against a sub .500 Polo team. Any other craziness/shenangins going on in Class 1 on the home stretch? Any upset alerts in District Tourneys?
 
What happened to Stanberry in the Polo game? They've been beating up on a lot of teams but not Polo are they better than there record indicates? Just curious

Polo is better then their record indicates. They beat Meadville by 5, I think. They have a guard that can shoot. Just one of those games for Stanberry. But they got it done in the end.

The last two I am not sure about!
 
I'm going to take Tina Avalon (They have always been my upset special...and playing at home) and Mercer. Mercer beat Novinger soundly earlier in the year too.

Tina has been playing big as of late. I think they might get by Glasgow if they have a good game.
Looking at the potential sectional and quarterfinal games, if they get by Glasgow, they should be in the final four.
That is something I couldn't have imagined at the first of the year, when they were a .500 club. They have to get by Glasgow first though.......we will find out in a few hours.
 
Went to TA to watch this game. Thought TA played well and outplayed Glasgow all game but the final couple minutes when Glasgow was in the double bonus and took advantage of it. If asked who I thought won the game and who I thought was the better team tonight, I would tell you TA, But of course it only counts when the buzzer goes off and at the end Glasgow had a couple more points then TA. Congrats to both teams as they fought to the end.

Stanberry wins by 14 after being down by 7 after one and with a slim lead at half. Jefferson had it down to 5 points with 3 minutes to go, just couldn't make it happen. They are always super tough!
 
Otterville vs Drexel (boys and girls) on Tuesday

We beat Chilhowee 67-48
Drexel beat Bronaugh 53-36

Our girls won 42-31...not sure of Drexel girls score

Now that Sectional games are set...any picks? I have Advance, School of Ozarks, Walnut Grove, Otterville, Glasgow, Mercer, Winston, and Stanberry. Possible dark horses: Gideon, Drexel, and North Andrew...Drexel being most likely this round only.

Watching stanberry highlights I am guessing as the teams get better the leak out and dunks will not be there. Hard to leak out for easy one son teams that take care of the ball. However, that is a hell of an athletic team for class 1. Would be fun to get to watch them all season.
