Girls Basketball Thoughts

So what about the ladies you say? There's plenty to say about our local girls teams.
In Class AA, Proctor and RFA are the only teams locally that will head to the playoffs.
The Lady Raiders are likely the team to make some noise, but they must play better team basketball to go deep.
In Class A, Whitesboro will be the team to watch with Notre Dame and New Hartford also looking to make some noise. However both teams will need more consistency to go deep as well.
In Class B, Clinton has been the team to beat locally. We'll see how they stack up against the rest of the pack including Sherburne.
Class C boasts Little Falls, who has yet to lose this season. They are loaded and the team to beat. I'm sure West Canada may have something to say. Cooperstown has a nice lineup as well.
In Class D, it will likely come down to RCH and NY Mills, who play this week.
I could be wrong, believe me, this is not a science. I'd love to hear from all of you. Again I would appreciate polite comments and any foul language and you are gone.
Hard to believe playoffs are next week. I'll post more later this week.

Welcome to High School Basketball

Hello everyone! High school hoops are strong in this area. With the playoffs looming, there are many teams to keep an eye on.
Locally in Class AA, there's no question that Proctor is the cream of the crop. They have a ton of talent led by Deandre Preaster. They could go the distance this season no question.
In Class A, the two local teams on top of the heap are definately Notre Dame and New Hartford. Wouldn't that be a great playoff matchup.
Oh and lets not forget about VVS. Al Knapp has size on that team. Plus...he's Al Knapp, enough said. ...let me know what you think?
In Class B, Sherburne is unbeaten on the season but can they run with the Syracuse teams...we will find out soon.
In Class C, West Canada has destroyed the competition in the regular season. Brent Fulmer is lights out from down town and Steve Porter has his kids playing great basketball. They will be the number one seed.
In Class D, forget about the loss to Cooperstown, unless you are a Redskins fan. NY Mills is a solid Class D team. They still have to face RCH who is much improved, but they can go deep into sectionals provided they play as a team.
Love to get some responses, I do have tough skin so don't hold back.
However, be respectful, this is not romper room.
Happy Hoops!
