Memphis City Championships put some turmoil in the "Lucky 13" with top seed BTW and two seed Ridgeway falling to Mitchell and Memphis Central respectively.
1. Union City (3) 29-0
Still unbeaten with tough game against Humboldt on the docket. Can M.J. and crew keep the loss column bare...time will tell.
2. Antioch (4) 21-2
The playoffs are here and Antioch is ready to show the state just what all the hype is about...remember 10 wins gets you a pretty gold ball to display in the case forever.
3. Ridgeway (2) 25-2
Could the defeat at the hands of Memphis Central give the Roadrunners cause to panic..we think not and district action should certainly prove this point.
4. Kirby (5) 24-3
"The giant Killer" still around toiling in the wings waiting to pounce on another unsuspecting victim..if you haven't seen Malcolm Burton you should, he's solid.
5. BTW (1) 24-3
The loss ot Mitchell has the Bluff City wondering if Booker T was for real or not...how about Mitchell is pretty darn good and playing very well as of late. Yes BTW is for real.
6. Maryville (6) 24-3
Bearden/Maryville III this Wednesday will be physical and tough. Does Damron have another big game in his arsenal..if history says anything he does.
7. Dyer County (7) 28-1
Keep them Choctaws rolling. The games get tougher the more you play in February, but thats how McCord and his players like it...bring it on.
8. Raleigh-Egypt (10) 22-3
The quintessential Pharoah squad built with depth, size and attitude has reared it's talented head and is ready to make some noise out West.
9. Bearden (8) 28-2
Narrow win on Monday but showdown with Maryville certainly on their collective minds. Bulldogs will need a big game from The Stat-Man Nathan Parker..and a healthy Jenkins won't hurt either.
10. Oak Ridge (9) 25-2
Stephens rounding into his mid-season form will carry the Wildcats to a showdown with Maryville or Bearden in region action..can't wait.
11. Braircrest Christian (11) 24-5
Our choice to take home state title in DII AA. Can they bring home the proverbial gold ball?
12. CPA (12) 26-3
Rolling along, getting better at the right time of the year. The M and M boys have established a stronghold on AA in the mid-state can they hold on and capture the trip to the 'boro.
T13. Franklin (13) 26-4
They have'nt lost a district game in like 30 years so the tourney seems to be a mere formality. The test comes at the region...can they meet expectations?
T13. Howard (13) 23-2
Always seemingly right in the mix and ready to show all that AA in the East is for real. Taylor is top notch and should be everyones recruiting lists.
