Peebles vs Fairfield 1/24

[cobbtown]

Should be a good matchup of two good teams.

Both are undefeated in league play.

Will this game be on the radio?

Thoughts?

This game was the first time I have seen the Justice kid from Peebles and he is impressive. Fairfield had too much size inside and shot the ball well from 3, Hilderbrand played very well for Leesburg. Can't argue with Peebles record but it looked like a very talented, solid Fairfield team vs a one man show.

Disappointing loss

Peebles looked flat last night and Ryan's injury didn't help but I'm not sure it would have mattered. Fairfield was the better team from beginning to end.

The Hilderbrand kid was impressive and Fairfield's big's work well together.

The Indians need to play better team ball, Beau is a great player but he can't beat a good team by himself.

this win might help Fairfield get the number one seed in d4 at valley if they can keep winning.

As good a win as that was for Fairfield, I would say at this point Peebles would still get seeded ahead of them unless their win/loss records are within a game or so of each other and I doubt Peebles loses a few more times before the draw. It will just be a question of whether Fairfield can put together another game like that should the two meet again.

if strength of schedule is a factor, which many times it is not, Fairfield should be the 1 seed. if they keep winning.

Sparky,Fairfield keeps winning,and Peebles keeps losing is that what you mean?.Peebles has 2 losses,one being Portsmouth,which happens to be a pretty good team.I think Fairfield has 5 or so losses.Explain to me how Fairfield would get the number one seed? Peebles beat Eastern,West Union twice,and Lynchburg.I realize you have never been a Peebles fan,but I don't think they played many teams any better than Peebles has.Peebles have lost two of there big men,one has been out for a couple of weeks,and Ryan going down last Saturday.The rotation of the big men,was a big part of there success.Losing those two guys for 4 to 6 weeks was a major blow.I guess we shall see how many more Fairfield wins,and how many more Peebles wins.

Fairfield has an advantage playing in the small division with Fayetteville being the only other good team in the small division. peebles has to play Lynchburg, eastern, west union, twice. if they do not lose to any of these teams they will keep the number one seed. Fairfield non league schedule much tougher but never seems to come into play at the drawing. moving to d4 is great for peebles. too bad north adams has a bad team this year when they finally get back to d4.i understand they are playing a lot of younger kids which should help them down the road in d4. although if they can avoid the shl schools in the sectional they could get to Athens. soc overall seems weaker than normal, however, notre dame will probably get the one or two seed even though their schedule is usually very weak.

Who does Faifield have to play before the draw? I believe it is feb 9th.
