Eastern Pike vs. Chesapeake

[BackTap]

The Eagles are having one heck of a season so far. Chesapeake will be no small task Saturday. Can the Eagles stay out of foul trouble? How will Chesapeake guard Leist and Miller? Thoughts & predictions on Saturday's game?

Just discussing this. I think Chesapeake matches up with eastern as well as any team I have seen them play. They are the real deal. The matchup between Miller, weaver and their 2 big guys will be fun to watch. Imo eastern holds a slight edge there but these kids are good. Their half court trap had belpre curled up in the fetal position but I am very sure barrick has a plan for that. Their freshman guard and leist will be a show to watch. Fun game. Excited to see it.

Hopefully peake wins but I see h.o.f. barrick getting another district title

[Oldhickory82]

Yes I realize this is sectionals..just saying I foresee them winning their side of district bracket

I have not seen Chesapeake play, as no doubt you probably have. I have seen Eastern Pike play mayby 3 or 4 times. Two very good coaches for both teams, I'm sure both teams will be very well prepared. If the freshman guard is as good as you think he is, and he very well may be, I hope that he is, because he may be going up against one of the best Point Guards in SEO.

Interesting matchup.. Chesapeake has good size and scoring capability, this one could be close.

I agree. I dont want to disparage any team, but belpre wasnt up to the task of keeping the game competitive. So maybe not an accurate comparison for eastern. But I think this will still be a good one.

This is kind of a trap game. ThePanthers are young and at times mistake prone but have talent and coaching. Eastern better not look past the purple.

[HamPorter]

I’m pretty sure Eastern wins this by around 10.

Chesapeake will be a lot to deal with the next 2 years though.

[EagleNut14]

The Eagles have came out flat past two games. If they do that in this game I can see a close game and it go either way. If they come out ready to roll I'm gonna to say Eagles by 12.

I still think EP wins this game, but it wouldn't shock me if Chesapeake "upset" them.

Chilly & TFred will bring this game in 100.9 WXIZ or wxiz.com. Air time about 5:50

I think this game should be really good, we'll see who's hitting the shots. Eastern Pike seen what Peake done in their first game you can guarantee that no one from EP is looking past this Peake team. Everyone talks about how will EP handle this or that with Peake, but I have to wonder here we are 1 game away from the convo how is the freshman guard going to handle going up against one of the top PGs in the area. I'm going to take EP in this one but I won't be shocked if Peake has a lead at halftime and Eastern Pike turns it around come 2nd half and wins it by 6-7 points. Good luck to both teams on what should be a really good game.

[Ironman92]

I can’t bet against Leist/Miller and Barrick

Sounds like a long tourney run

Peake came out with pressure and that zone had Belpre all confused and out of sorts. Eastern typically handles the press very well. The africentric game Leist ran circles around the pressure and the Eagles out ran the Nubians. I would compare peake pressure to africentric. Long athletic kids that work hard. This should be a dandy but I agree with most everyone else. Leist is the difference.
