wonder if Cherokee girls left their starters in through the whole game? They can be bad for that at times.
No the backups played a lot late in the game but with a running clock it just seemed to run together. Andrews also cleared their bench. With Cherokee having the 6’1 freshman I believe they can win it all this season especially if the big girl improves down low. We actually played good in 1st Qtr but in typical Cherokee fashion they just wear you down with constant ball pressure full court. After 1st Qtr it just seemed like every single shot went down

Cherokee is gonna be a handful for anyone
 
Andrews girls gave Robbinsville their first loss tonight, 56-55.
Andrews girls going to win more games than they have in years.
Cherokee just next level from everyone else.

Lady braves beat a pretty good Erwin team last night 78-34 and will play 4A mount Tabor tonight. the braves lost a close one to ACA and will play Asheville in the 3rd place game tonight
Can anyone hang with the Lady Braves this year? I know charters will deep in the playoffs but I don't see anyone on their regular season schedule. The Freshman center is impressive and will only get better as the season goes on.

Shes been getting better and better each game this year, I thought Mount Tabor was going to give them a game but they couldn't hang either. Robbinsville always seems to be a good close game no matter how good the either team is

Robbinsville will struggle with Cherokee this year.
 
Andrews Boys with a big win over Franklin
Murphy comes to town Friday
A lot of the chatter has been about Murphy, Swain, and Robbinsville, but Andrews has kind of flown under the radar to a really good start. 10-1 with wins over three different 3A schools. Will be fun to see Rattler and Skogen go at each other Friday.

On another note, Swain beat a Pisgah team that had been looking like one of the Mountain 7 favorites last night. At this point, would love to see a SMC/Mountain 7 challenge. Even 1A v. 3A, think it would be pretty competitive these days.

Braves and lady braves beat Swain tonight, boys game was one of the best high school games I've seen in a while with Cherokee pulling away at the end. girls won by 55
I watched a little of the boys game online, real intense. Looked like the 6-6 wing for Swain wasn’t on the team anymore?

Robbinsville couldn’t throw it in the ocean until the 4th quarter. Pretty sure they had 16 points at halftime. Ended up losing 66-52. The majority of their points came in the 4th quarter and they had narrowed it to single digits before I left. Swain played very good defense but I doubt Robbinsville has a shooting performance like that again.
