Marmaduke still dominating this conference even after losing all five starters.

EPC girls are no where near the team they were when they beat Duke earlier in the year. They can beat teams that are less talented because they have more talent than those teams. But they aren't playing well enough together to beat teams that play as a team.

A lot of selfish play on this team right now.

Bdub, I must admit that I thought EPC would be a better team by now than they actually are. They are a shoe in for regionals due to the weakness of the bottom half of the conference but with the addition of Vornes I thought they might be the team to beat. I give Rick Smith credit at Marmaduke. He returns no starters and still is easily the best team. His teams play very hard and always have multiple threats offensively. Much easier to defend teams that only have one or two scoring threats.

You are very right bdub, it looks like they need a coach.  With a good coach they could be a top 5 team but if coach continues to allow the players to dictate what they do and don't do for fear they will quit, this group (can't call them a team) will not make it out of Regionals.

I think all his players or at least most go to basketball camps during the off season as well. Ones where they work on skills not just go and play pick up games.

You are right about the team for sure. Aggravating to watch sometimes. One time down the floor a girl will score then it seems like the others get jealous or something. Then it becomes I gotta score too competition instead passing the ball and getting an open shot.

Way off base for the most part.   A team without any leadership is what they are......

That's being said all season long about the EPC girls playing selfish. Maybe certain fans need too be quiet and let the coach deal with  his team instead of  them trying to coach their designated player from the stands. :-X 8)

There is some of that, but you know what they say about an absence of leadership.....

Thats at about every gym you go to. People saying things to players on the floor. Thats where the coach has to put his foot down with his players and tell them to listen to him and not the crowd.

Thats what the bench is for, if you know what I mean.
