Montgomery Co. / Summit Christian

[ChaoticFanatic]

1 quarter into this game and my impression so far is that the state title game was Thayer/New Madrid.

These other two teams aren’t bad, but neither of them have the ball skills or the athleticism that Thayer & NMCC have.

MoCo 6’8 center isn’t great but he’s kind of sneaky, he’s quicker than you think once he gets to the block.
The 6’3 PF is probably the most athletic player on their team overall as far as quickness and getting to the rim. Also plays very physical.
MoCo looks to have two guards that can’t go to their left.
They are athletic though I’ll give them that.

SCA has a 6’5 freshman who is going to be really good if he stays there. Their guards are better than MoCos are, but only because they can go to their left.

Halfway through the 2nd Q, I can say this, overall, neither team seems to be able to shoot very well. About 95% of the points thus far are coming from 8 feet and in.

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

I’m watching this game after the fact, obviously.
9-0 run by MoCo to start 3Q. Playing much better this half.
27-19 with 5:26 left in 3Q

Two 3Ps have been made so far between both teams. Both were MoCo

 

[ChaoticFanatic]

SCA wins by 10

It was a 4 pt game with about 1 minute to go.

MoCos best guard was out with foul trouble for half the 4Q

Both these teams will get pumped by double digits tomorrow.

C3 was definitely huge drop off from C4 this year. NMCC being the exception.

SCA will be lucky if they only lose by 20 against NMCC.
Montgomery Co. will also have a challenge with Thayer.
The 6'8" kid for MC is ranked one of the top players in the state, unfortunately he doesn't always play like it. MC's starting point guard is out with a shoulder injury, that's not an excuse because they've been playing without him for a while.
Your right, the championship game was NMCC and Thayer, too bad the bracket paired them in the first game.

Having seen both with a regional rooting interest have to be objective everyone on this thread is right. SCA has seen no team within range of what NMCC puts on the hardwood.

Is their starting PG the Thomas kid??

After watching the last dance documentary a few times, I can’t help but laugh that his name is Isaiah Thomas lol.

Was he a senior? Looked younger than that but who knows nowadays

Summit is hanging in there. Catching up been gone all evening but appears SCA is dictating the pace hanging in there but all those first half fouls could be factor late.

That was almost deja vu..............NMCC hits a desperation half court 3 but it doesn't count but they seem to be regaining control up 10 with one quarter to go.

Winnetonka hit a desperation bank shot from half court to close the 3rd earlier today.

 

[thetophat2021]

Spread is 14 with 6m left. SCA could easily wear down and this could really blow out down the stretch.

 

[thetophat2021]

NMCC wins easily went essentially coast to coast this season............CONGRATS!
