Lincoln has Westville at home tonight

Lincoln has Westville at home tonight

Lincoln really scheduling the juggernauts this year with a home and home with Westville and the Scranton tourney?? I heard Westville is so bad they probably will go winless this year.

Westville was very competive in years past, but for the last 2-3 years their program has struggled.  Lincoln and Westville have always played each other due to their close proximity.

Got to see a few teams over the holidays , saw Gravette vs,  very athletic Malvern team,  gravette will end conference probably around 7-7 . Shiloh seems to be healthy and at full strength and will cause some damage , won't be in top two but they will win many games in conference , saw Prairie Grove twice, they didn't have there big kid so hard to truly evaluate them , but they are pretty inconsistent and not overly coached.

[4AWhistler]

Lincoln boys beat Berryville tonight.

[oldballer]

Pea Ridge totally destroyed Gravette last night by 30 and it could have been worse. PR probably hit 13 or so 3 pointers. it was like Gravette ran into a hornets nest. There's not many teams in the 4A that would have beat PR last night once they got to rolling it was impressive. On another note I have seen Gravette play 3 time now and I think they have gotten worse instead of better. Several things I took away from last night is that Gravette better figure out how to play defense, stop playing as individuals on offense and learn how to pass the ball inside to the big kid. (Even the fans were yelling about this at times.) PR is much better than I thought. Deep bench, plays at a high pace and level, very unselfish and gets after you on defense. I can't wait to watch PR vs Huntsville.

[channing]

Didnt see any of the games last night, but results were:  Pea ridge over gravette, Huntsville over Gentry, Prairie Grove over Shiloh , Lincoln over Berryville,   saw wrap up of PR /Gravette,  saw in paper Prairie Grove missed like 12 free throws but still won by 12,  anybody have wrap up of other games?

Huntsville vs Lincoln

Girls:  Huntsville 39, Lincoln 27
Boys: Huntsville 52, Lincoln 30

[4AWhistler]

Lincoln boys shot just 30% from the field and only 16% from the arc. 

Huntville is disciplined and patient.  I didn't see any really "bad" shots that they put up tonight.  Big guy in the middle is solid, but won't come out of the Lane to play defense, but was smart not to do so with Lincoln shooting poorly.

[Ole Legend]

Huntsville at Pea Ridge next Friday night! Should be a good game!

1. Huntsville  5-0
2. Pea Ridge  4-1 (loss to Gentry)
3. Prairie Grove 3-2 (losses to Huntsville and Pea Ridge)
4. Gravette 2-3  (wins over Lincoln and Berryville)
    Lincoln 2-3 (wins over Shiloh and Berryville)

Friday's schedule:

Huntsville @ Pea Ridge (showdown for the lead - which Pea Ridge team will show up?)
Shiloh Christian @ Gravette (for control of 4th place - possible tie for 3rd w/ PG loss)
Prairie Grove @ Berryville (tough road game.  A loss would drop the tigers into a tie for 3rd)
Lincoln @ Gentry (Win and stay in contention, loser will be buying tickets to see the regionals)

Prairie Grove @ Berryville (tough road game.  A loss would drop the tigers into a tie for 3rd)
Lincoln @ Gentry (Win and stay in contention, loser will be buying tickets to see the regionals)

Looks like there will be a little separation after this series of games. This is playing out pretty much like we all thought it would. Spots 3-6 are a mess and may stay that way even through a few more rounds of games. Huntsville is proving to be consistently the top team, Pea Ridge is Jeckyll & Hyde, PG - one of the 3-6 teams will have to beat them, Shiloh is living on the edge having trouble scoring, Gravette with 2 of top 6 players not on team anymore, Lincoln showing more life than previously thought, Berryville and Gentry slowly fading away and better make a move.  The next 2 weeks will possibly straighten things out a little.

[channing]

I think you can say 2 through 8 on any given night can beat you ,  Huntsville really establishing themselves as the best, but look out Friday at PR,  Loyd will have them ready for huntsville .  Other than the Prairie Grove game huntsville has won each game going away .  Nobody is an easy out,  berryville is 1-4 but at home they are very tough,  what players did gravette lose and why ?

[Ole Legend]

PR will give Huntsville everything they want and then some.

[oldballer]

PR will give Huntsville everything they want and then some.

PR is a good team, but Huntsville will win this game. Trent can have them ready, but he can't play the game for them. PR has no answer for their big boy and Huntsville just has to many of the intangibles in their favor.

I don't know which 2. It was 2 of the top 6 players and I don't know why. Once you get past #35, 33 and 2 it really doesn't matter. Not much difference in those from what I have seen. If it is 2 of those then they might be done.

I have not seen much of Huntsville but their record speaks for itself. I will say this, if Pea Ridge had played the same schedule as Huntsville and Vice Versa, both records would look much different. Pea Ridge played the toughest schedule of anybody in pre conference. Should be a heck of a game tomorrow.

1 common non conference opponent in Rogers. PR lost to them and Huntsville beat them by 18. I say Huntsville wins Friday night by 12.

[channing]

One other common opponent , Huntsville beat Prairie Grove by 4,  Pea Ridge beat Prairie Grove by 2.   I smell an upset tonight !!

Gravette lost Fox, the backup point guard and Morgan, backup guard - ineligible due to grades

What happened to the PG girls?

[oldballer]

I really wanted to make it to the PR/Huntsville game. Work had other ideas. Would someone that was there give us a run down on the game? I did attend the Shiloh/Gravette game and that was less than impressive. I have never witnessed 2 teams have that low of a level of guard play. The simple task of passing the ball or dribbling unguarded seemed to be hard to do. If this is the result in losing the 2 players for Gravette they may not win another game and Shiloh was equally as poor. Where have all the skilled players gone?

It was a really close game. Pea Ridge defended the post really well the entire night. #14 for Huntsville kept them in the game. He hit multiple three pointers down the stretch. Pea Ridge hit some threes and got some lay ups late when Huntsville had to press. PR looked like the better team.

"PR is a good team, but Huntsville will win this game. Trent can have them ready, but he can't play the game for them. PR has no answer for their big boy"
Aguilar was a virtual non factor on the offensive end. PR's post play is underrated when coupled with their well above average shooting ability.

Excellent shooting ability. Davis put the finishing touch on this game. He didn't score until the fourth, but in the fourth he had 12, including 2 three pointers. The Hall kid is a sophomore that can shoot just as good as anyone in the conference. The Trundle kid can step out and knock down the 15 footer when they need him to.

[channing]

Lincoln looks to be the surprise team so far with a record of 4-2 just one game out of first tied with Praire Grove who they play Tuesday , they win that one and may Be on their way to  a.Strong run at regionals .

Lincoln isn't 4-2 they are 3-3. Lost to Gravette, Huntsville and PR. After Tuesday if the games end up PG over Lincoln, Gravette over Gentry and PR over Shiloh there will be a 3 way tie for 4th place with Lincoln, Gravette and Shiloh.

[channing]

Oh I stand corrected , I thought Lincoln was 4-2,  I know they beat Gentry and Shiloh there last two games pretty easily.

Outstanding info!!  thanks

[Leroy88]

How do you see the Lincoln and PG match up going tonight?

[channing]

Boys im assuming,  Nothing seems to be easy for PG boys, generaly they play close games whomever they play.  Lincoln seems to have found there stride, winning there last two games easily. The Goldman kid is always a big threat, so should be close 4th quarter game.

[Ole Legend]

What's the word on Shiloh so far this year?

[channing]

Scrappy, not overly talented but will work you hard.

[leaglebb]

Girls:

Huntsville  48
Berryville   35

Very hard fought game and was tied at the end of 3rd qtr.  Huntsville pulled away in the 4th.  Berryville has a good team and will be a tough game at Berryville the last game.

[leaglebb]

Next up:

Prairie Grove on Friday.

Will report on the boys in a bit.

[leaglebb]

Boys:

Huntsville  57
Berryville  24

Not much of a game.  Berryville is way down and Huntsville had something to prove after the Pea Ridge loss.

[4AWhistler]

PG. 50 Lincoln 44

Observation:  PG boys very mouthy/whiny and refs would have been justified in calling technicals, but they didn't.  Grown men shouldn't let boys talk to them like that.

[channing]

I too was at the PG/Lincoln game not sure why the comment about whinny PG kids needs to be made, I didn't see that at all, what I saw was a very competitive game,  Lincoln is a pretty good team that will win a lot of games,  PG defended the heck out of Biggie, he had zero points till he hit a meaningless three in last minute.  Enjoyed watching that game and look forward to seeing them play again.
