The talent pool down in the SW
Maybe it should not be all that big a surprise that Gate City and Central-Wise are still playing. I know I mentioned that no one would probably come within 20 points of Brunswick and I really am glad I was wrong again (Clarke County played them close last week and lost by 17 on BHS floor). Girls hoops are a pearl in the SW part of our Commonwealth. CW beat Clarke handily last season on their way to losing in the state finals. Floyd has been a dynasty for years and Gate City has had a powerful program for a very long time. I saw GC twice in the late 2000s face Clarke, beating the Eagles in '06 in the state finals then losing to CC the next year in the semis. Congrats again, Central-Wise, on a very impressive victory over a talented Brunswick.
