I believe last year's 7th grade team consisted of 3 8th grade boys. 2 of them had never played basketball before and they had 3 7th grade players of which only 2 returned this year. The two that have stuck it out for these two years are doing it for the love of the game. Aaron Keyser is a good littl...

The Clay 8th grade boys try hard, but it is hard when they only have 2 returning players and the rest I believe this is their first year of playing. The 7th grade boys have played together since 3rd grade and played all summer together. The 7th grade team will give any team in SOC a real run for the...

Teamwork I agree with you. Eastern last year moved up alot of their 7th graders to the 8th grade team and they held their own against Clay's 8th grade big boys. I know a few of the incoming 7th graders this year and they will be a force. Brandon R. will be leading them all. He is a great ball handle...

Clay has a nice 8th grade team and i really like there coach. That being said western spanked them at home and lost by two on the road when a last second shot didnt go down with the shanks kid not playing one minute. They will not beat western this year. So that right there is two losses. I was the...

Clay has been very fortunate to have two GREAT junior high coaches that show leadership on and off the court. Coaches Compton and Geyer demonstrate compassion, confidence along with discipline. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

GO PANTHERS!!! You make us proud!!

Has anyone heard if this tourney is on for tonight? If not when will these games be rescheduled? I know SW and a lot of the schools in the tourney cancelled school today.

Clay girls are undefeated. The game last nite was exciting. I really thought ND had Clay for a while. I agree Maddie Freeman's 3 pointer was what won the game. GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE SOC1 TEAMS!!!

I don't think Jake was making fun of the kid being hurt. That's not the type of person he is. Anyway I'm sorry to hear that too. I know the Clay 7th grade has been working hard and hoped to play Western's full squad. I know at last Thursdays game Clay had I think 1 or 2 kids out and heard over the w...

I wasn't offering up any dig at them -- just very suprised. as a side note I'd like to know what others thought about the old guy that called the 3 games for the ND 7-8th grade. younger guy was OK but the old guy ( Mr Walking lOL) was just bad. not a cheat or anything , you could just tell wasn't u...

Well here's some noise from the Clay Nation!!! Clay's 8th grade did lose after a tough "fight". Making their record 10-2 on the season. A record to be very proud of!!! Let's not forget that the 7th grade boys and the girls teams both won!!! I believe the girls are now 14-0 on the year!!! K...

It's a Junior High Tournament. What does where you get seeded matter? If your that good you will win no matter what, right? Its called RESPECT!! Teams work hard to earn respect during their season. They want to see their accomplishments recognized. If seedings don't matter then why does the NCAA se...

I agree Jake, Clay 7th grade beat SW twice and SW beat Valley and then Clay 7th graders play Northwest on Weds. If Clay 7th grade pulls out a win and the seeding isn't out then Clay should be placed high. The 8th grade pulled out a major win tonight against a very strong team. I would not discount t...

I agree Jake!! I think Clay is being over looked.

WOW there was three GREAT games of basketball tonight!!!! Clay girls and boys won all their games. All I can say is THANK YOU to both schools for an exciting night of basketball.

Does anyone know the dates of this tourney?

Present

Prayers going out from the Ridge

Both Clay teams won against SW. The 7th grade won 33-30 and the 8th grade won by about 10 points.
