Ryan4VT Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 48 minutes ago, Real Sasquatch said: Surprised this game was this close. Marion has improved throughout the season, however. Large gap in the region. It’s Union and Graham — and then a big step back to GC — and then an entire mile back to the rest of the region.

Real Sasquatch Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Off topic a little, but in D-2 Region A the teams in the regional playoffs have a combined record of 5-23. Wow. Also, only 5 teams in that region actually playing basketball in 2A. Amelia (0-6) Bruton (0-5) King William (2-2) Windsor (0-5) Poquoson (3-5) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Rock’s got that half virtually sewn up. It would take a minor miracle for Region D’s representative to beat Radford. Radford’s significantly better than East Rock.

It’s Union and Graham — and then a big step back to GC — and then an entire mile back to the rest of the region. The gap is nowhere near as large as you're insinuating at this point. Union did not blow GC out in the last meeting, it was a relatively tight game. GC is not an easy out for anyone at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen them play. I'll tune in tonight. Is she a senior? I know Kimberlin is only a junior. I anticipate her going somewhere if she wants to play basketball in college.

1inStripes Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 I was having cage workouts for my softball team last night so I didn't get to follow a long very closely but look forward to going back and watching the Rye Cove/Chilhowie Plus 1 game. RC wins in OT 102-98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, Graham’s just more athletic and talented. Second, Graham’s a matchup problem for GC across the board from what I’ve seen. Anything can happen with 15-18 year olds, but it would be a shock and rightly so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrall’s Pearls Posted February 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 GC/Graham should be a 15-20 point game. A lot will depend on how much the officials let go. GC will need to muck it up and the officials usually let more go in postseason. If fouls are called and GC isn’t allowed to hand check/body Graham all over the floor it won’t be close. RV I think has more talent. GC doesn’t have an athlete like Adkins nor a basketball player like Brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Reed kid, while not a true basketball player, is about as good an athlete as any kid in the area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-oo- Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Sarah Thompson is definitely the best player in the region haha. She was moving at a different speed than everyone else. It was a fun game to watch. Very physical. Couple technicals. Very competitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, as I said on the last page, I’d be surprised if it weren’t an all-M7 final on the girls’ side. Thought Marion would have had more for Ridgeview though.

goose111874 Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 I'm actually surprised Ridgeview and gate city made it this far my niece plays for Union and the whole team is freshmen and sophomores and they played both close.

1inStripes Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 Gate City off to a fast start. First time watching Graham but this GC team has looked much better early than the few games I watched early in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
