Good game to start the season. A district battle that will be a part of the seeding this year. I understand the district has gone to playing each district team twice to determine seeding rather than the traditional one game. That makes this game a very important one for the first game of the year.

 

I think Boone has edge playing on their home court. It should be a good battle between the two teams. The matchups look pretty good between the two teams, I think the x-factor for Boone is who for Ryle can defend McFarland?

 

I look for a good but sloppy game as the emotions will be high and it is the first game of the year for both teams. If Ryle can limit turnovers and get to the free throw line more often than Boone, they might pull the upset.

 

Any thoughts from others???

When and were is the game ?

Tomorrow (12/2), at Boone, triple (Freshman, JV and Varsity all play). I think the Freshman start it off at 4:30 p.m.

Should be a fun game to see. I'll take a guess that McLeish guards McFarland to start. McLeish has gotten taller and much stronger than last year. Ryle should have the height to deal with Earls and Cotton. Ahern vs. Gabbard will also be interesting to watch.

I'm thinking BC shouldn't have too many problems with Ryle...

I think BC gets the W on their home court but Ryle will give them a tough game. I'm interested in seeing the battle between Earls and Nichols.

McCleish can't guard McFarland. Mismatch around the basket. Ryle will have to guard McFarland with Russell.

I look for Andy to try and stay outside of the lane. He has developed a nice outside shot but it depends on how many times the coach wants to let him shoot.

I haven't heard much about Boone over the summer. Who did they scrimmage and what were the results?

I'll take Ryle in the upset. They match up with Boone very well and can take Earls and Mcfarland away from the basket.

Is Ryle a good free throw shooting team? I think Boone should win in a close one.

Look for Popp to guard McLeish. I don't think Ryle has a good answer for McFarland if he is on.

Nichols is stronger inside. Earls can go outside and hit the three and run the floor better.

Agree.

~25 point wins over Lex. Christian and Brossart.
