Walkertown is now 2A - pretty sure that'll make it hard for them to give MA and WSP a run for the NW1A crownMount Airy boys will be good again this year as they return 3 starters.
WS Prep will be just as good as always. They return 3 starters and I'm sure they filled spots with others. Heard they got the kid from Atkins to transfer over so they just keep going.
Walkertown will be really good. Jalen Cone is a stud and only got better over the summer. They could give MA and WSP a run this year in conference.
Cherokee returns everyone so they will be really good as well.
Lincoln Charter returns all starters and their top 9 guys from last years team. They will be very good again.
Pine Lake returns 3 starters and some guys that sat out last season that will give them a great team. Look for them to make a lot of noise.
North Stanley will be loaded with talent. PG had a breakout summer and they will be tough to beat.
All in all the west 1A will be loaded with teams. Looking forward to a great year of good basketball.
Regardless, how will Walkertown be good? Jalen Cone is only one player. I doubt he stays there after this coming season. Not sure they have much other talent.Walkertown is now 2A - pretty sure that'll make it hard for them to give MA and WSP a run for the NW1A crown

Bryson Childress had a really great summer. Proved he is a college player. Plus the Lee kid is back and they were soph/jr. last season.
Not saying he is not a good player but not like that in my opinion.
Your opinion is respected but he had a great summer and North Stanly will be a team to watch out for a lot because of him. And yes, he did get quite a few colleges that is showing interest.
1A Girls side has to be Mount Airy, there might be some teams who can keep it close for a little while but the guard play of MA is too good for any 1A team to beat them. Murphy had the size last year, but did not have the guard play. Bishop & East Surry should round out the top 3 in the NW1A. South Davidson will be good, but will miss the guard they lost and it was proven last year they would not have finished in the top 3 of the NW1A. Cherokee should also be strong, but Murphy should have the edge on them in the SMC.
1A boys side has to be Lincoln Charter, they just have too much talent returning, WSPA loses some key pieces, Bishop is the team that I don’t think anyone is talking about, they return key players and picked up some really talented transfers. MA and South Stokes should round out the NW1A. North Rowan could cause some issues with their move down to 1A, but this is Lincoln Charter way ahead of everyone else as long as they are healthy.
2a west East Lincoln boys
The Clinton boys will be as loaded and deep as an over stuffed Twinkie on the sinking Titanic.
1A Girls........I like Mount Airy and Cherokee. Interested in seeing what Bishop looks like. In the East, I don't know. Maybe Roxboro or Plymouth?
1A Boys.......Usual suspects......Lincoln Charter and Winston Salem Prep. I'm keeping my eye on South Stokes, Uwharrie Charter, Albemarle, North Stanly, North Rowan, and Bishop.
In the East......I like either Voyager or East Carteret.
2A Girls.........I think North Surry can get back there. They'll miss Maggie Hawks more than they realize though. Also like East Davidson, Ledford, and Salisbury. Also keep in mind that Atkins is now 2A. In the East, not really sure. I'm not confident in Clinton and Bartlett Yancey getting back there. BY does return their best player though.
2A Boys.........hmmm......not sure there is a heavy favorite. Clinton and Kinston will probably be really tough. Northside-Jax is now 3A. In the West, just don't know.
What do you see the finish being for the CCC? Will West Davidson and North Davidson make noise?The CCC girls will be loaded. Almost all the teams return their starters.
Ledford (returns all 5), Salisbury (returns 3/5), E Davidson (returns all 5), S Rowan (returns all 5) will all be strong. W Davidson (returns all 5) and N Davidson could probably finish 1/2 in many other conferences in the area.
I saw Lincoln Charter yesterday at Phenom Jamboree and they looked really good. Beat two loaded private schools by 20 plus each game. They will be hard to beat no matter the class. North Meck looked strong and deep as well. West Forsyth looked not as strong as they have but still solid. Northwest G will be good once they get football guys back. Voyager looked really good as well. They play strong defense and looked to be deep. I would like to see them and Lincoln Charter in a state game.
Boys: Linc. Charter then everyone else.
Girls: As mentioned several times above, Mt. Airy, Lots of returning take talent should be preseason pick to repeat. Murphy and Cherokee will still battle for the SMC and will challenge Mt. Airy. In the WHC Avery returns most of their scoring and brings a few really good kids up from a great JV team. Sleeper could be Mitchell, return top 8 players and have a couple of freshman that could see playing time. Played Cherokee to a one point game with a chance to win at buzzer in playoffs and lost to Avery twice by like 10 points combined.
