Begins today:

Bell Davis Pitt Bracket (stronger)
1- N Wilkes vs 8- W Forsyth
4- Mt Tabor vs 5- E Forsyth
3- E Surry vs 6- E Wilkes
2- Oak Grove vs 7- Forsyth Country Day

Atrium Health Bracket
1- Reagan vs 8- WS Prep
4- Atkins vs 5- Carver
3- Reynolds vs 6- N Forsyth
2- Parkland vs 7- Glenn

Overall, not a very strong field.
N Wilkes and E Surry should be good this year. OG should be competitive, however, I believe their star player is injured (Trista Charles).
WSFCS teams will struggle again this year.

North Wilkes should win this. I am a little surprised Parkland isn’t in the stronger bracket. I had heard they would be very good this season.

I find it interesting how bad WSFCS girls basketball is now. What happened? There was a time that it was very strong with multiple teams (West Forsyth, Reagan, Tabor, WS Prep, Atkins, and East Forsyth) were all very strong.

 

[NCprepbball]

Parkland will be okay. They won’t beat Tabor. Davie might be the favorite to win that conference.
A few players have been picked up by Delaney Rudd at WS Christian.

Semi finals:
N Wilkes vs E Forsyth
E Surry vs Oak Grove

N Wilkes should win it. I wasn’t overly impressed with the other teams. OG misses Trista Charles and her 18-20 ppg. Tabor has Bailey but lacks guard play.

 

[ncball04]

Agree with North Wilkes being the team that should win it. Oak Grove is probably the 2nd best team if they have Charles. The Game with East Surry should be a decent one, but I think East will beat them without Charles. The other teams outside of North Wilkes were just not very good.

 

[NCprepbball]

E Surry beat OG by around 10.
N Wilkes beat E Forsyth by 19 after being down at the half.
Championship is N Wilkes vs E Surry and 3rd place is OG vs E Forsyth.

In the other bracket Reagan plays Parkland for the championship.

 

[NCprepbball]

N Wilkes defeated E Surry by 40+ in the championship.
OG def E Forsyth for 3rd.
WF def FCD for 5th.
Tabor def E Wilkes for 7th

Reagan defeated Parkland for the championship in the Atrium Health bracket.

I would say the CPC is a toss up this year.
Overall, a weak conference compared to the other 4A conferences in the west.
N Wilkes should be a state contender in the 2A west. I would say E Burke is the favorite.
Oak Grove is probably the favorite in their conference with Ledford being the biggest threat.

 

[ncball04]

The championship game was boring. That was an absolute beat down in every aspect of the game.

The younger Bare is going to be a special player for N Wilkes.
