Prescott vs. Mayflower

Thoughts? Who wins this one? Will somebody briefly describe Prescott to me? They seem to be a salty squad with pretty good height, but I haven't seen them play.

Straight zone on defense & begged us to beat them from perimenter. Offense goes through two 6'2-6'3" post who are physically strong and pretty good players. Did not take a 3 against us, but was very patient. They all had a good looking stroke from FT line & was very efficient there.

Haven't heard anything on Mayflower.What are their strength and weaknesses?Can they shoot that three ball well?

Their key is the left handed guard. He is an above average shooter, but his strength is his ability to drive and get to the free throw line. They have a couple of players that can shoot the three well, not great but good. Their big issue has been consistency. Key player just came back after Christmas and the team has not 'played together' like they could. That said, it looks like they are hitting their stride.

Mayflower, Jessieville and Benton Harmony Grove are all pretty equal, each winning and losing against each other. They are as good as any other team in 3A. Unfortunately, Episcopal is in this conference and is heads above any other team in 3A.

If Mayflower is going to win, they've gotta keep Roberts (#20) and Stewart (#4) off the glass. Those two aren't prototypical power forward, but they use their 6'2-6'3 frames well around the rim. For Prescott, they've got to limit Perry (don't know if they'll actually stop him) and guard the perimeter. They've got guys that can get streaky.

Whoever wins the battle of the boards will win this game. Mayflower had a cake walk to semis. We will see what they are made of now but in all reality they are just playing for state runner up

Roberts missed 11 in a row, not too efficient from the line. If Prescott makes half of their free-throws this game is not close. Good season Two Rivers!

Wolves have 4 seniors who starts for them and a hallfame coach need I say more!!! My son plays for Centerpoint so not much love for them but have to say seniors are doing everything right this time of year.
