Life has many choices---eternity two

how good is twin springs??...what do they have as far as players, are they a big team or a fast team that gets after you?

[vatech 10]

I could be wrong but I think they got another transfer that is playing now....? That's what I've heard.

[countryboy 11]

that wouldn't surprise me

Twin Springs is good and they can beat Hurley even though I hope they don't. And yes they do have a 6' 8" exchange student. He's not all that great on offense as he may average 8 pts a game. He makes it tough for teams inside and blocks a lot of shots and gets a lot of rebounds obviously. Campbell can shoot the lights out and most of the time is the top scorer but not always. They also have 6'5" Finch who is tough inside and is better offensively than the foreigner. Their weakness is probably at the point guard position as they don't have a great ball handler. I hope they get put out early along with Appalachia because I don't support any team that imports players. Go Hurley!

Twin Springs in the top 10 is a joke IMO. Gate City beat them by 50 without their exchange student in a scrimmage and then pasted them by 30+ with him.

Twin Springs will make it to state along with Hurley in Division 1. They have a good team but Gate City, VA High or Lee would all beat either of those teams. Voters don't realize how strong the Clinch Mountain District is and what type of non-district schedule you guys play.

I don't see Hurley or Twin Springs making it past Galax or Eastern Montgomery. Hurley might.. Twin Springs definitely not.

[Hokie22 10]

I think the sleeper to knock off Twin Springs or Hurley will be Burton. They were up on TS going into the final frame a week or so ago but TS ended up winning by 4 or 5 points.
