TS won- they had one loss, Eastside had two losses Burton 3 losses

These two teams might have the best resumes in 1D…and maybe 2D as well. Lebanon has wins over Va High, Honaker(2), Eastside (2) Union and the one win against Chilhowie. Chilhowie has wins over Shelby Valley, Ridgeview, Union (2) and the win over Lebanon. Should be a good game.

SWD Va High has first locked up but 2-5 seems like a mess due to the suspensions etc. Anyone got current standings? M7 Looks like Abingdon then 2. Ridgeview 3. GC 4. Union 5/6/7 Central Lee Battle BDD 1. Honaker 2. Grundy 3. Hurley 4. TV Cumberland 1. Twin Springs 2. Eastside 3. Burton 4. TW 5. Rye Cove 6. Castlewood Hogo 1. Lebanon or Chilhowie (tied) 3. PH 4. Holston 5. Northwood 6. Rural Retreat

Abingdon and Va High are considerably better coached than Ridgeview and GC. Talent wise I would say you are probably corrext

Virginia High is better than anyone in the M7

Abingdon beat Tazewell by 65 without Willis. With Willis it was an 11 point game. It’s obvious you are either related to Collins or just a really big fan. I’m not disputing that he’s a great player. I would take a soph EC for 2 more years over a senior Willis for sure. However, right now, Willis is a better player in my opinion.

Struggles to get his own shot because he’s running the team the whole time. He isn’t quick enough to beat smaller defenders and he can’t post them because he can’t pass it to himself. And he is nowhere close to 25 a game that’s silly.

Collins is a really good player-his biggest issue is that he struggles getting his own shot. If Central had a dynamic PG that could take Collins off the hall he would be even better. When Willis is healthy he’s as good as Lane and Worley (the other two best guards in the area)

Willis has not played in a lot of those games.

Honaker was up like 40-10 the other night at halftime…

He’s on a bad team, but Willis is better than Collins or Robinette or Garrett.

In no particular order Ramsey-Abingdon Lane-Twin Springs Worley-Va High Keene-Lebanon Willis-Tazewell HM- Robinette (RV) McMurray (GC) Musick (Honaker) McCoy (Eastside) Collins (Central) Bartuski (Chilhowie) Owens (TS) Osborne (Abingdon) Looney (Grundy)

Tazewell’s best player did not play-he’s missed a ton of games this year.

Chilhowie is like 11-3 I would put them much higher.

A lot to answer but basically having a AA that can recruit all of Richmond plus other places gives them a huge advantage

AA Virginia High Gate City Ridgeview Graham Everyone else A Lebanon Twin Springs Eastside Chilhowie Honaker

Tazewell won-that’s why I was not high on Lebanon at the start of the year

NY 2023 rankings 2D 1. Gate City 2. Va High 3. Graham 4. Ridgeview 5. Central 1D 1. Lebanon 2. Twin Springs 3. Chilhowie 4. Eastside 5. Honaker I think one could reasonably rank Lebanon #1 in 2D as well right now. Still somewhat early in the season but Honaker beating 2D Central and RV in the tourney only to get manhandled by Lebanon shows that maybe I’ve underestimated the Pioneers all year.

Lebanon wins the tourney in OT in one of the best games I’ve seen this year. That was a heavyweight fight between two pretty damn good teams.

Semis are set-my picks were pretty bad yesterday. Ill go with Va High playing Honaker tomorrow in the title game.

Va high blows out Chilhowie Huge upset for Honaker over Ridgeview -happy but didn’t see that one coming.

It’s definitely a good win for Chilhowie-however I think they get buzz sawed by Va High today. If they win today then we can start talking region title

You can use the link to find the boys-which is what I did

5-4 on the year…they were not very impressive. I expected much more…but even still, they should have won-missed about a dozen layups and blew a 6 point lead late. You expect more from a Kentucky team who can play 30+ games a year and 6-12 can play varsity

Tomorrows matchups are set Im going with Va High handily Burton over Central Ridgeview over Honaker Union over Lebanon close
