Biggest news out of that district tournament is Gabe Johnson from Webb going down Thursday night
Didn't post but, at full strength, had Webb winning this one. Agree very solid season. Now that we are down to the C5 Sweet 16 I like Grandview more than ever (extreme impressive road win over a semifinalist from a year ago) to at least advance to the Final Four in CoMo.
Was wondering why that took so long. That quarter will now be a tossup. Seeing roads paved for those elite teams that survive now. Peeking at the C4-6 quarters that C5 Sikeston-Vianney game really stands out.
Always hate seeing untimely injuries regardless of sport or level. Class 6 looks pretty clear cut unless these upsets get even more shocking (Ritter, SPG Central, Chaminade and Oak Park have to be pretty good bets now). Class 5 tighter as mentioned but going Sikeston, a very motivated Jeff City, DeSmet and Raytown (much as I'd love to see Tonka pull it off). Class 4 another dandy is PH Central vs. JB going the latter, Tolton, Vashon and KC Central.
Before Spectrum all but wrecked MetroSports they used to replay that infamous game at Muni every year around this time.
hard to bet against those title game matchups. would make for 3 outstanding championship games.
Would love to see Central go all the way but I am a big proponent of schedule paying off this time of year and Vashon's has few if any equals. Several wins over National programs but did lose in-state albeit to Chaminade who will be a serious C6 threat moving forward.
