Any news of WBC?

[Ballfan1]

The seeds and brackets are out on their website, I think they put them up yesterday afternoon.

[NEAscout100]

Thank you. What does everybody think about the seedlings in both sides?

[RedWolf275]

I thought Bay boys were in this last year?

[NEAscout100]

They were last year, but I guess not this year. I don't know why though.

Girls & Boys Bracket

I thought Bay boys were in this last year?

They were...Colton Watson tied the mark for 3rd highest point total in WBC Tournament Single Game history with 41...he owns the record at 45 from the previous year

[Silky Johnson]

Bay opted out to play in the Barry Pruitt Classic @ Jonesboro high school. I think they may be matched up with Valley View in the first round. Also I heard that Pocahontas best shooter from last years team ,Corey Kasczmarski, had a shoulder injury over the summer and won't be playing for his senior year but things may have changed since this summer.

[NEAscout100]

Sloan killed Westside by 25 over the summer. Rico and 2 good Garuds were there for the Warriors. Not sure if they had everybody or not. But anything on Riverside? And Walnut Ridge is returning all 5 there gonna be good, but don't count out the Bulldogs or Rector at making a run into the semis

[NeaBaller21]

Riverside has a solid team. A lot of shooters and deep off the bench. One kid came of the bench and scored in the high 20s in a game so they are dangerous on the bench as well. And if you leave the Stone kid open you're gonna have a long night.

This tournament kicks off today.

yes! It could be a very long season with Corey out!! He was deadly from 3point range! They will probably have 3 football players in there starting lineup, which could be very ugly early in the season!! They probably should not be ranked 3rd in this tourney!!

Sloan will play Riverside Monday night @8 any thoughts and predictions?

Good matchup I would say. Sloan appears to be a top three team in 2a-2 while Riverside is probably a 3-6 team in 2a-3. Both have good guards and like to press so it should be an entertaining game.

[NeaBaller21]

Should be a good game , but I think Riverside wins this one.

[NeaBaller21]

Westside up on Marmaduke 25-23 at half

[Thechosen1]

Riverside wins this one by 15 or more

[Thechosen1]

Any updates on this game?

[NeaBaller21]

Riverside won 60-56. If Riverside hits free throws they win by 10 or 12. But nonetheless good game. Came down to the last 2 minutes.

[NEAscout100]

Reall good game, Sloan plays better defense and no turnovers, and Riverside hits free throws maybe be even one that goes into OT!

[NeaBaller21]

Any updates from lastnight?

Tuckerman 55 Pocahontas 47
Walnut Ridge 69 Corning 62

[NeaBaller21]

So Tuckerman vs Walnut Ridge
and Riverside vs Westside tonight. Any predictions?

[Thechosen1]

Walnut ridge and Westside both in class ones

[Silky Johnson]

Josh Bateman has already made Tuckerman a solid program in a few short years. Maybe they aren't an eye catching team but it is far cry from when the Bulldogs were getting drilled twice a week.

He has the program heading in the right direction for sure. I saw them in the regional last year. they have a lot of fight in them.

[Ballfan1]

Tuckerman has gotten better and they are only losing 2 or 3 Seniors and from what I've seen they have a lot of talent on the bench.

[RedWolf275]

I'll go with Walnut Ridge and Westside to advance.

[Thechosen1]

Tuckerman is much improved and play with a lot of toughness. Bateman is a great coach and I think the game tonight goes down to who has the ball last and I think walnut ridge will pull away and win by 2

[NEAscout100]

I'm gonna go with Westside by 10 and idk about Tuckerman and WR it'll be a good game..

[NeaBaller21]

Walnut Ridge beat Tuckerman. And Westide beat Riverside by 15 or 16. Riverside dug their selves a big hole the first half down the 16 I believe. Then cut it down to 6 in the late 3rd early 4th quarter. And from there Riverside folded.

[NEAscout100]

Ridge beat Tuckerman by 3 I believe. Crisler went out the first quater with a shoulder injury and didn't return.
