Though no sane person would predict them to beat John Marshall, making it back to the state championship game after losing legitimate D1 prospects in back-to-back years is astounding.

Bearcat Bob 491 Report Share Posted March 11, 2020 After what I saw in Rockingham County tonight, John Marshall by 25+. Anytime they wanted a basket, they went inside to 6’11 Wheeler. He is pretty much unstoppable. Can’t imagine that will change Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat Bob 491 Report Share Posted March 11, 2020 John Marshall is one of the few teams that has actually lived to, or exceeded, the hype. Now that I say that, Gate City will probably upset them😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with other inner-city Richmond schools, JM has lost a lot of enrollment in recent years. But they didn’t lose anything on the basketball court. JM will likely win handily. Regardless, Gate City has exceeded most expectations this season. They should be very proud of what this group has accomplished. gc1, Deleted Account and Bearcat Bob 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gate City shoot 50% from the floor and JM shoot 20% from the floor. I know this is far from the realm of normal possibility.. but I would find this inspiring to future underdogs who are given zero chance of winning in athletic competition.

Someone said it before "Coaching means everything" They had a great season. If I heard correctly they only lose one player for next year. I expect they’ll make another run at it next year. Great program and tradition up there. A Radford - Union matchup next season could be very likely to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only lose Jon Woods (6pts and 8 boards/game) but will have the Prioleau kid back and 6-5 Mabry kid should be back. If they had the Prioleau kid this year, they would have made it to the finals undefeated. Probably still don't beat JM but would've been fun. The four Juniors (Cormany, Kanipe, Prioleau, McManus) have only lost 5 games since Middle School (4 this year and GC two years ago.) With Prioleau that would probably been only 2 total to GC 2 yrs ago and JM this year. The Radford JV only lost 1 game and has some talent. Should make a run next year, maybe have a down year then reload for a couple more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
