Is it not like that everywhere? To a certain extent. There are very few high school programs that can be dominate year after year. And the smaller the school the harder it is to establish a legacy like Central has. 
 

I would beg to differ that most teams are not very good. SWVA has the toughest conference in the state in 2A girls basketball. Central's girls have won state in 2013-14, 2014-15, & 2016-17. Ridgeview won state in the 2015-16 season & the finals that year we're 2 local teams (Ridgeview & Union). Also, before Ridgeview was formed, in 2014-15, the state championship in 1A & 2A were both from SWVA as Clintwood won 1A & Central 2A. Girls basketball in our end of the state is usually the best action you'll see. The conference/district (whatever format they've gone to this year) should be extremely competitive adding Abingdon, with D1 signee Grace Hess (Air Force), into the mix with Central, Ridgeview, & Union. 

The 8th grader who hit the shot at the buzzer did not quit. A senior who started quit. The 8th grader who hit that shot holds 3 D1 offers already and she started on Saturday (she had not started in either of the 2 games before during the tournament). 

After keeping up with the score on twitter, I was wishing I'd make the trip to Gate City to watch. Battle has played everyone in the conference hard, but I was still shocked to see it actually happen.
 
I don't think any of the four teams left in the tournament are going to have it easy tomorrow or Friday night. 
 
Central actually beat Ridgeview once at Ridgeview last year in a close battle. 

Wasn't able to make it, but from what I read GC lost due to the lack of fundamental basketball. GC was outrebounded 30-9 and missed a total of 12 FT's.

Milo seemed eager to skip the conference tournaments and go straight to the regionals, so I figured I could at least provide my due diligence and at least go ahead and post the thread:

I totally forgot that Battle could tie Lee by beating them tonight, Not sure how a tie for 6th gets broken though, coin flip maybe?  Lol.
 
Anyway, yeah, girls (Tuesday) will be:
 
1 Wise Central (bye)
4 Lebanon vs. 5 Union
3 Ridgeview vs. 6 Lee High/John Battle
2 Gate City vs. 7 Lee High/John Battle
 
Boys (Monday): (so far)
 
1 Gate City (bye)
2 Union vs. 7 Ridgeview
 
Lee High is locked at 6, but 3, 4 and 5 could be either Battle, Central or Lebanon.  Lebanon gets the 3 if they beat Central tonight, with Battle 4 and Central 5.
