Let's hear it!! Who wins this opener for both teams in the regional tourney?

Russell struggles, but wins by 7.

With Vanhoose out, this will be a close game. If Bath comes ready to play, I see them being victorious against Russell.

I will go out on a limb and say Russell by 10. I think that the Red Devils will be very focused and be ready to play.

Russell wins by 15 +

Russell 63

Bath Co. 46

Russell by 20. They will be playing this regional with a point to prove and that is that they ar far from a one man team.

Could prove to be very interesting. The Wildcats lost to Russell by 19 at Russell a month ago +/-. The Wildcats missed 19 free throws. Now they have some confidence and a few more wins. You will just have to listen or peak at my paper gameday for the score I always write it down. I just think it could be interesting if the Cats shake of the lost to Rowan and look to advance this is their first trip in 8 years.

Even without Vanhoose Russell wins this one by as much as they want.

What a team !!! They have the players and the talent to still move on down 64 . Yes, It would of been easier with Vanhoose but we won't count these boys out yet . They want it even more now . It just means that they have to spread out Vanhoose's 20 points a game . I know that they will miss him on the court with them however , I'm not ready to give up on them yet ....

I don't thinks one will even be close. Russell is still a top three team even without VanHoose. Bath gets to the tourney only because they play in an extremely weak district.

As I stated on another thread, without the services of Jon Vanhoose Russell is two and out.
