Billingsley99 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Triton Central with a shot at buzzer to beat South Decatur 66-65. That kid that hit the shot to win a sectional championship will have a great memory to tell his grandkids one day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milosh68 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 2 hours ago, rico said: How so? The style of basketball the teams play. If both games go over 65 points, then I’ll take Homestead and riley to win. Homesteads closest games were against the Indy area teams, and the comparative teams played between Carmel and Homestead makes this one really interesting to see which style wins out. Carmel is just fundamentally sound, and i don’t know much about the fundamentals and discipline of Homestead, so that one really interests me. Valpo plays a boring brand of basketball, and they could easily frustrate Riley. Wesley will have to have a big game to get by Valpo, and that’s mostly because you really can’t trust who else will step up for them, and playing against the style of Valpo makes me think the the other Riley players won’t like that slow style. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son and I have had a sectional pick contest the last 4 years, where we try to pick the winner of each of the 64 sectionals. Whoever gets the most right wins. He has Leo and I have Dwenger. Oh, and the young pup has not beat the old man in the contest yet. I hate to pile on to the young pup, but dad wins the sectional pick'em contest yet again. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alford1987 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 (edited) Private school Blackhawk is definitely special for a 2A club. However, busco does not have a typical public school roster either. This could be closer than ppl realize. Blackhawk by 6.

Alford1987 Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Hard to imagine Blackhawk losing here. I’m still willing to bet it’s closer than most expect. The irony is the best player from busco will be playing against them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That prediction alone will make me follow it anywhere I can find it broadcast ....they play the noon game right ? Should be able to catch it after Blackford or if they are at the same time and lapel has good reception that works too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
