11/16/14- Top 5 Boys and Girls

[PuddlePirate12]

Just wondering what everyone thinks after a few weeks of playing

Boys
1. Emerson- I'm a little biased but they're still very good.. And undefeated which means a lot in my book
2. Bay- maxpreps has them as 6-1.. one loss but very deep and talented. If they play defense they're #1 and likely unbeatable
3. Wonderview- maxpreps has them 8-1.. Didn't lose much from last years team and it shows
4. Jasper- MP has them 7-1.. I believe they have a lot of size but other than that I really don't know
5. Alpena- MP has them 6-0 but I believe they have lost one.. Beat Scranton though.. Maybe not #5 but good nonetheless

Norfork boys are also good, and Kirby is 6-1 and only lost at Emerson by 3.. Watch out for them!! County Line is 4-0 after starting 0-2. They're always a contender as well

Girls (Haven't kept up much)
1. Nemo Vista- I believe undefeated. #1 until someone can beat them
2. Kingston- Big win the other night against Valley Springs. Other than that.. Beats me
3. Wonderview- lost 65-60 vs Kingston in OT.
4. Kirby- destroyed Emerson girls unfortunately. Very good defense
5. ICC- I guess. Don't know enough about anyone else. I know ICC has lost some games.. I just don't know anything about anyone else

Flippin has lost at ICC by 7 and Norfork has lost at ICC by 3 in OT. Flippin has split with Norfork I believe both at Norfork (Flippin won first one by 5 and Norfork won second one by 10. (I think one was a benefit game.)  We will know more tomorrow though.

[epotts]

Norfork beat Jasper @Jasper about two weeks ago and Norfork beat Flippin by 10 @Norfork but lost by 5 in the benefit game to Flippin @Flippin

Norfork girls are definitely better than ICC. They beat them by 9 at ICC.

[HorseFeathers]

Norfork girls are definitely better than ICC. They beat them by 9 at ICC.

I was going to ask about this...The girls look to be a 4 horse race this year....Nemo, Wonderview(if Zimmerman doesn't get hurt), Kirby and Kingston....I've seen 3 and Nemo looks to be the best so far...

If Kirby is the one you haven't seen don't be surprised if they aren't as good as the other 3. I haven't seen Nemo, Kingston, or Wonderview this year. I just know Kirby is probably by far the best team in that region. They may be no where near the other 3. I just can't see anyone beating a team that won state and did not lose anyone. Because didn't nemo start like 2 freshman and 3 sophomores last year?

And what about Hughes boys? I haven't heard anything about them. I think they are the only other undefeated boys team in 1a. Who have they beat?

That sounds about right for Nemo...Scary thing for the rest of 1A? Their two best players are sophmores this year...

[PuddlePirate12]

When I heard the age of their starters at state last year I said even if they don't win this year they will be back. Then they won the whole thing. They could win 4 in a row with those sophomores if they have a good group of girls coming up behind them as well

Don't know what they have coming up behind them...But the 3(I know for sure 2 of them are) sophmores are good enough to get one their senior year by themselves lol...I watched them destroy a decent south side team a couple weeks ago..

[PuddlePirate12]

1a girls is pretty good this year I think. Several good teams but until someone beats Nemo they have to be the favorite by far

[smackdat014]

Boys:
1. Bay
2. Emerson
3. Wonderview
4. Kirby
5.  Jasper

Norfork beat Jasper on Jaspers own floor. One team I am suprised no one is mentioning is Scranton

Where, oh where, are Mulberry's girls?

Oh that's right.  I tend to forget this is Fearless Friday, where people base their poll off of what they read.

Mulberry is top 5, now we have blown their cover  I'm sure they just soon stay out of the picture til end of year.

How are you suppose to know anything about a team nobody has said anything about. I don't even know who they have played

Boys
1) Emerson - this spot could possibly be Bay but I honestly don't like their cocky attitudes so I am gonna put Emerson for the time being
2) Bay
3) Norfork
4) Jasper
5) Kirby

[Hogfan167]

Don't think the Bay posters will be cocky anymore. They couldn't take the heat they were getting.

[Bigbird2012]

what's going on with Sparkman girls this year? Haven't had a chance to watch them but havnt heard of them winning any games.

Is the Sophomore Emerson guard worth coming to watch tomorrow night?

[Bigbird2012]

He is pretty good just needs to realize that he is a point guard and not a shooting guard but he is young and will learn that he is needed as a play maker. The Junior "revels" is defiantly one of the top 5 players in the state and from what I understand he has a few schools looking at him. McNeil who I also think is only a Sophmore is a really good shooter and has started to play defense the last 2 games so this will defiantly help and then there is Jackson a Senior who can jump out of the gym and he is a good player as well and really showed out the other night against Bradley. If this team can stick together and no get hurt they should have a run at the state title and if they can keep their coach they should be pretty decent next year also.

Just glad to see Bic didn't shoot 85 percent on them because I'm not sure the Tribe's ego could've handled another Loss.

The Junior Tavion Revels can almost score at will. If he needs to score 30 for Emerson to win then he does but he would rather set his teammates up and make a good pass than score every trip down the floor. He can post up, drive, pull up, or shoot the three. If you foul him he will make his free throws. I remember going to watch them play at the dual state tournament last year and one of Emerson's starters and big scorers went out in the first quarter with a sprained ankle. Revels put the team on his back and scored something like 38 points. Emerson still lost but him scoring like that on a team like Junction City shows he is man. He is also a very good guy with a good attitude. He is definitely worth the drive even if he doesn't score 30

[PuddlePirate12]

Scranton boys..? I'm pretty sure they lost three games in a row to jasper, Wonderview, and alpena.. And in the alpena game Roby went off for 52.. It seems they don't have a good supporting cast for their two best players to work with. I thought they would be good too. They lost their big man from last year and it must be what is hurting them

This kid can go.  I watched him last year in the state tournament.  He did everything he could against Concord and even helped give Emerson a lead going into halftime.

The funny thing is he moved to Emerson in like the 4th or 5th grade.. Or somewhere in there.. And before he started 7th grade he never played basketball a day in his life. It just comes natural to him. Not that he hasn't worked hard because he has but so have other people and he's head and shoulders above them

Is scranton really that good? Still a good win, but wasn't Zimmerman out for that game and scranton barely won.

Just my opinion
