#3 GW-66 over #6 Eastside-59 From everything I've seen and heard from my MAROONS this season we are looking better and better. But the question remains can anyone play with Honaker and Radford?
 
I hope you don't think I'm trying to start something. I haven't seen GW play. The last three weeks (Radford didn't play this week) Radford has looked solid. There last game against LordBod (3A) after half they allowed like 9 points with subs of 4 Freshmen. Final was Radford 63-34. At Salem they lead after the first quarter 20-2 (both points was free throws). I have been watching the Bobcats faithfully since 1998 and this is Radford's BEST defensive team ever. The game against Martinsville at home Radford lead wire to wire. 1A west is going to be crazy.
 
1a west is way hand to predict. I'm not saying this in a way to try and throw off on anybody that has been on Honakers schedule but the teams just haven't been able to match up. They have had a handfull of close games but nobody has really threatened them. I mean when you beat a team 108-34 what can you say? The majority of games have been like that. What scares me is radford has been tested a couple of times by Martinsville. I cant speak for gw i dont know what thier schedual has been like. I do know thats what worries me with the tigers is when someone punches back how will they respond? I can't wait until the region tourney. Should be some great basketball.

I don't think you're trying to start anything other than a good conversation. And Radford is a MONSTER of a team this season I haven't seen them play. But people that have been around the game longer than I've been alive are saying this Bobcats team may be one of the best in a very long time. And as you said in your opinion this is the best D they have had. And on the other side of the coin you have Honaker who I also haven't seen but they seem to be as advertised. I've heard nothing but good things about either program and that Raddy has a giant Ausie haha. As far as GW we are pretty good all around and really solid from behind the 3 point line and we take advantage of the charity stripe pretty well. Our D is fast and try to stick to the other man like glue. So if all 3 of these teams show up come tournament time things might get very interesting in my honest opinion the title is going to end up at 1 of these 3 schools when its all over. Good luck to everyone on the rest of the season and safe travels in this rough weather.
 
Tested by Martinsville? Martinsville beat Radford by 20 the first time the two teams played. Then Radford beat Martinsville by three points on a nite that they ( Radford ) was unconscious beyond the arc. Radford is a good team, very good but if a squad plays good perimeter D, then that team can give the Bobcats problems.

I guess I could have used a better word than tested but what I meant was they (Radford) actually played someone one their level and was beat by them. I wasn't trying to slight the dogs by any means. Trust me I'm glad they are in 2a you can't argue their history!

I believe that FOUR teams from each REGION go to state this year. New alignment schedule brings back the state quarterfinal games. Brackets are up on vhsl.org. After regionals, it goes something like #4 East vs. #1 West and so on. Good luck to all.....
