I predict Wayne by 8.

Wayne co is a very young team start 4 sophomores 1 senior. The only 2 that have a lot of varsity experience they are sophomores another sophomore saw varsity action toward the end of the year for due to injuries. Now he's playing point guard a position he's never played before. The starting senior has seen limited action, and the starting 2 guard had seen very limited action. In the first few games what got to Wayne the most was the trap that was a big problem at mercer and Lincoln they didn't handle it well at all. Since then they have started figuring out how to stay calm and are handling it much better.

The shot at the buzzer was very close (I think it was the right call) but it was not clear for sure either way. Sometime you get the close calls and sometime you don't.

McCreary could come out and hit everything they throw up(its possible), but the difference in WC and Monticello is WC is a much better defensive team.

This should be a good game wayne is playing better now than they did early on in the season. Mc maybe playing better too, don't know I haven't seen them lately. Either way a good game. Wc by 5 (my prediction).

Yes this is becoming a very good tourney this year it was up to 14 teams and from what i understand they are already planning a bigger and better one next year. This tourney always has some good competition. Last years winner was ST X from Ohio i believe they were a top 50 team nation wide.

Final Monticello Bank Classic.

True they do start 4 sophomores and 1 senior. The only 2 returning starters are sophomores. Their point guard has never played guard before this year. Their 2 guard has limited varsity experience, so they are young but are getting better as the year goes on with more experience. This when over Moore may give a boost in confidence.

You told the truth on that one thats for sure.

They are going to set up temporary bleachers on the stage in order to get any where near 1400 people. With that many people it will be elbow to elbow,knee to back, and very hot and uncomfortable I can promise you that.

Wayne Co jumped out early and was up 20 to 8 at end of 1st. Russellville cut it to around 6 at the half and the game was on. Good hard fought game all the way.

I look for the winner be either Dyer Co. (TN) or Russellville.

McCreary will win big. They'll walk through their side of the bracket no problem, but they should no one in their bracket has a winning record. Not sure but I don't think anyone has over 2 wins, I could be wrong. The other side of the bracket has some good teams in it.

From what i understand Wayne offered to let them host the tourny there and not charge them a penny, but they'll never do that.

Wayne Co is also a very young team they are starting 4 sophomores and 1 senior. They still make some mistakes but they are getting better and seam to learning from their mistakes.
