Thoughts and Predictions?



Idk how good Western is this year but Manchester better play better than they did against CNE or they won't be winning many games this year.

I will take Manchester in this one...showed some rust against CNE but this is their home opener and I am sure they will be ready

[airforcejm]

I'll go with Manchester as well. I expect them to play much better than they did against CNE. I'm not sure how much Western has improved but I think it will be a 15 point game at least. I dont think it will be a blowout like last year but I wouldn't complain.

Western is pretty young again with two freshmen logging major min last game but they are much deeper this year and a little more skilled than last year hopefully they keep it competative this year.

You probably have West Union picked to win state this year don't you?

[Ironman92]

Manchester by 28

Westerns only big is a 6'6 freshmen . But he is going to be a stud player that's for sure wonderful kid and very eager to learn. Buy the half way point of this season he will be a force in the paint right now he rebounds and contests shots very well just to unselfish with the ball but he can finish with either fans and has a ton of post moves. Remember the name Brewster he is going to be fun to watch for the next 4 years.

if they have a guard western will win manchester wont stop anyone in the paint. who did they replace the big man with i hope its not the move in from west union nice kid . i hope the JRHIGH coach teaches him more at manchester then he did at are place

[Lightle04]

Man your ruff on the hounds. I'm a Western guy but a realist the hounds are one of a handful of D-4 schools in the area that are a state contender this year.

Sounds like to me someone is a little sore over Gaffin leaving West Union.

Well technically everyone has guards, so with this prediction everyone would beat manchester? Doesn't really make much sense. Also the manchester jr high coach does a nice job at the jr. high level and takes pride in preparing. It's pretty evident he made the best of a bad situation at West Union. I'm going to say Manchester by 19. Western is on the rise but I'm not sure if they are ready to compete with a more experienced Manchester team. Best of luck to both teams. Try counting backwards from ten before posting in anger.

..........................and that my friend's is the ugly truth!

[Grinder]

Manchester big, I have them as one of my top two D4 teams in SEO. I do think Western will be much improved this season.

[GreenDevils#1]

Manchester by 40! Travis Combs best player of the year!

[airforcejm]

The JV Hounds are starting the night off right 26-10 at the half.

[TribeManiac10]

Any updates? JV final score? Varsity first quarter?

[airforcejm]

Manchester JV wins 46-31. Western pretty much just shot 3s the last few minutes of the game. Brummett scored 20. For the hounds. Varsity will begin in a few

[airforcejm]

End of 1 Hounds up 21-4.
