passtheball Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Agree ptb but just like Trinity always struggles against Ballard, Eastern has seemed to pose the same problem for Ballard in recent years so I agree, not a great draw for Ballard. Who doesn't always struggle agains those teams? That's the way its been for a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcjkbt Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Is this something new--playing the championship on a Monday? I know a few years ago, the championship game was postponed because of a court injunction regarding a referee issue. When does the State tourrnament begin?

They usually do this in some regions when the girls state tournament precedes the boys which is every other year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcjkbt Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Of the 8 teams in the Region, here are the statewide rankings of 7 of them: 1,2,4,8,10,16 and 19, according to Litkenhous. It's a shame only one can get out, but that's the way it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockPride Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I really can't wrap my mind about how tough this region is...wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentreRocks Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I really can't wrap my mind about how tough this region is...wow. I didn't realize it either. Look at this: Moore, the 8th ranked team in the region, would be the FAVORITE to advance to the Sweet 16 in the following eight regions: 1, 3, 5, 8, 12, 13, 14, and 16. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passtheball Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I really can't wrap my mind about how tough this region is...wow. Without the vintage Ballard, Eastern, Jtown teams of the past, there is no one or two great teams in the region. This has has caused a clutter of real good teams and a lot of parity. The question is, who wants it the most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentreRocks Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Without the vintage Ballard, Eastern, Jtown teams of the past, there is no one or two great teams in the region. Huh? Have you watched the Seventh this year? Trinity isn't too shabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passtheball Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Huh? Have you watched the Seventh this year? Trinity isn't too shabby. Yes, and I've been watching the 7th region for over 20 years. Trinity has a nice team, one of their best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you still believe "there is not one or two great teams in the (seventh) region?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loubballfan Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Who knows what this next week will bring but I would say that Trinity and Ballard have differentiated themselves as the class of the 7th this season. This doesn't mean that they couldn't get knocked off as earlier posters have mentioned the quality of the teams in the region. Put these two in most other regions and I think they have a great shot to meet in the finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passtheball Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 So you still believe "there is not one or two great teams in the (seventh) region?" There's a lot of people and coaches who have been around for a time believe the same thing. However in saying that, the 7th in comparison to the state this year is loaded as always.
