Hello all
I know it has been over a week since my last I have at my real job and really have not had time.
Since we last talked, I have seen two high school basketball games and have come to a few realizations already
they are as follows
Warner Robins is loaded and while Callaway is the no doubt leader of the team, they have a sophomore who could be even better than him . In fact he may be better right now. The Nelson kid can really play. I think I saw 6 dunks by the Demons in the HOCO game and they are a very exciting team.
I also saw SW and NE and the Raiders have not yet won a game but they are young and talented and will get better as the year goes by. SW was in a close game with them but Justin Slocum put it in another gear in the second half and that game was over. You will be hearing all year about the Slocum, Hargrove combination and I am sure both of them will be high on the upcoming top 10 list.
Amazingly, it is possible that Derrick Evans is not the best basketball player in Macon this year. We have loads of talent
NOw the second round of the Battle of Macon
Covenant- Westside- This is just an unfortunate draw for the Ramd who might be able to play with many of the other teams in this tournament. But we are talking Westside, the premier program in the area, and this upset would not only not happen, I am afraid it would get nasty. I don't even know if people would want this game to be play. Oh that is except for Covenant nation. They would want it to happen.
Westside 63 Covenant 14
Central - FPD - I believe these guys played a practice game before the regular season started and I heard it was competitive. I think this would be a great game because the Vikings improved a lot during the season and I am not sure how much Central improved. Lets say the Chargers jump out to an early lead of 14-0 but the Vikings don't quit and came back to make it a 14-7 game at the half. In the end though, my guy Derrick Evans would not let this one slip away and Central hold on
Central 26 FPD 21
Stratford- Southwest
SW did not make the move they wanted to make this year and they are looking for a little bit of redemption against Stratford, who went on quite a roll at the end of the season. Who would pay to see two of the best athletes in Macon, Cephus and Slocum go at each other. I think both of them score twice in this game and we would see some great battles as Cephus goes man to man on Slocum, I believe Slocum probably wins that battle, but the eagles ability to run the football with that three headed monster gives them enough to win an entertaining game
Stratford 31 Southwest 22
Howard- Tattnall _ Who wouldn't want to see Barney Hester play Tattnall Square ? I think relly everyone would love to see this. That is until the game starts, One team is very talented and one team is very young. Talented beats young every single time. Courvoisier for 350 and 3 touchdowns please.
Howard 42 Tattnall 14
This leaves us with the best 4 teams in the city
the semi final matchups would look like this
Westside- Central
Howard- Stratford
We could pack the Mercer stadium for this double header
Yaal have a good week
