I know any team can beat anyone on any given day, but the fact Wilson Memorial only beat Chatham by 6 doesn't look too good for their semi matchup with Union. Union beat Chatham in the regionals pretty badly... 20-30 points I think.

I honestly thought Wilson would roll Chatham after they got up by 20, and I think they did too, but Chatham kept swinging. I didnt hang around for the second half to see the rest of the game, but I was surprised at the final score based on the first half.

Like everyone says - this time of year it's do or die time - and all the teams know that.

I listened on the radio to the Wilson game - they were just cruising along by 20 - starters sat some on the bench in the 2nd quarter - and I think they might lost some of their focus/mojo at that point.

This time of year, you've got to keep your foot on the pedal ALL of the time - or what happened to Wilson will happen to anyone.

A win is a win...bottom line...and you only need to win by one point to advance.

I am with Keith. I too assumed Wilson would roll in the second half so I left. I was surprised to hear about the Chatham comeback.
