New High School Basketball Polls are in/out and it is Conference Tournament Week

We are going to roll with the Polls this week without the records and come back and add all of the updated recoreds/marks in, after all of the Tournament games are complete…One could go crazy trying to keep up with all of the records in a wide-open week like this one…It is hard enough trying to keep up with all of the games and the scores from this week’s Conference Tournaments…..Here is what we have from the polls and remember, the real season starts next week…It is on as of today(Thursday), for the NCISAA and NCCSA schools with tournaments where if you lose, you are done for the year…..The real season is just four days away and next Monday, either you won, or you are one-and-done….

10)Southern Guilford/Northern Guilford….Based on play and what we aaw last Friday night vs. Northeast Guilford, in a 64-62 win by the Storm over the NEG Rams, this spot belongs to SG this week, even though they are down two more spots in the public school poll, they deserve two jump up two spots, in the overall poll….Got to give it up this week to the Southern Guilford Storm…..This team is on the quicks….Our new man on the scene this week is, Qwan McCauley….
Northern has strategically made their move since mid-season and since that time the Nighthawks have been bound and determined to get back to the .500 mark and at one time since being at (3-11), they are now at (15-10)…The Nighthawks have made their move with a man known more for his football moves than for his basketball, but this kid T.J. Logan can do it all with a basketball too…The kid has hops and he can get stops and there is no stopping him, when he gets within 3-5 feet of the basket…..

NG and SG have made their moves and that is why we have moved them up in the overall poll….May seem crazy to some, but when you are in line for your due, you have to do the do and give the ‘due’ too…..I don’t know about you, but this poll looks whole and and I might be in a hole six feet under by dawn, but who cares, as long as you are ‘doing the do’….

*****Hey, if nothing else, maybe overall readership pro or con, will be up this week.*****

One thought on “New High School Basketball Polls are in/out and it is Conference Tournament Week

  1. Andy,you got it wrong not having NW Guilford over Southern and Northern Guilford in combined boys poll….we beat Northern twice this season (one was a blowout) and beat Southern convincingly….yes,we had a early round exit in the Piemont 4a tournament vs HP Central and frankly played our worst game of the year but consider our 17-7 regular season record…..we were never struggling to get to .500 like those two teams…….bad call.
