Thoughts?

This will be a lot closer than everyone thinks in my opinion. Eastern has some momentum coming off a big win at Meigs (which doesnt look so good now after Meigs gives up 99 point to warren). But Easterns defense looked very good against Meigs and I think being at home will be a huge advantage. Ill take Eastern at the nest

Easterns win against Meigs is a wash now after the way Meigs played last night the only thing I will give credit about that win was they won on the road. Sounds like both teams struggle to score 45/47. This one could be in the 30cages ill take Alexander they have more playmakers.

Didnt Alexander have 1 player score about 90% of their points the other night? Sounds like they have 1 playmaker. I havent seen them so I dont really know. Seems to me these teams are pretty even. Should be a good basketball game

The Weffler kid had a double double be a tough match up inside for Eastern

Eastern handled smith from meigs. Is the weffler boy any comparison to smith?

Weffler is shorter and doesn't attack the basket as much as smith but is a very good player and had 18 rebounds against Trimble if I'm correct. i believe if Alexander shuts down the carahan boy Alexander will win in a close one

Weffler isn't as tall but hits the boards hard, had 18 rebounds against Trimble if I remember right. If alexander shuts down carahan i believe they will win in a close one. Being at eastern though it is hard to tell.

No, but stat wise played better than he did Friday 11 pts/19 rebounds gonna be a nightmare for the eagles

Eastern didnt handle Smith, he got in foul trouble early and Meigs played bad. Very bad. I really dont think eastern will win more than one or two more games. Alex wins

I doubt he will be a nightmare for the eagles. He might get some rebound but Eastern bigs are pretty good...Eastern will win more than 1 or 2 games..Ill put money on it. Someones just mad bc Meigs lost

Eastern's defense (even though they are under sized) is very good. They force turnovers and don't send many guys to the line. Offensively, they struggle a bit but play pretty smart. I'm not sure what Alex has but they will have be going up against a team that plays hard and hustles.

Good luck to the Eagles! I say Eastern in a close one. How many did Alexander lose from last year?

I'm not for sure how many they lost but they lost most of their scoring in jack hart and Michael Chapman, they averaged almost 40 points a game between both of them. The only starters returning this year is jones and weffler.

I dont think Eastern returns any starters.

Eastern by 1

Eastern will be tough to beat at the nest. Watch out for new big man Kirk pullins. Not a very well known name, but sure to be by end of season. Great hustler. Also bigman chase cook will be tough in the paint. Eagles come out with a win in this one

Eastern 49
Alexander 39

Eastern surprising the tvc

Was that a final super trooper?

That was the final. Carnahan finished with 22.
