Can East Surry keep the Western Championship and State Championship in the NWC for the 14th year straight or does Murphy have the edge in this one ?

If it's like the Mount Airy vs Murphy western Championship last year, It was considered to be the real state Championship because Mount Airy only beat Murphy 46-35 for the Western Championship and blowed by Pamlico 69-32 in 2018 and beat Pamlico 66-40 in 2017 after getting by Avery 49-38 that year. So East Surry, keep it in the NWC for the 14th straight year.Sounds like it could go either way I expect it to come down to the final minute. I’ll pick East in a thriller. GO CARDS!!
Keep dreaming this won’t be that big of a margin either way y’all mountain people think the SMC is untouchable it’s hilarious.Murphy will win by 10
Agreed. They play like last night. They win easily, I promise you. There is no way inexperienced guards can match Murphy's guards.Murphy will win by 10
Look man. I will be straight up with you. If you didn't have sutphin transfer you would have got killed by Cherokee. We mountain people don't have the luxury of lets see I will just go to es this year. You got who you got in the mountains. Sutphin is awesome. But if Murphy shoots well, it's over!!Keep dreaming this won’t be that big of a margin either way y’all mountain people think the SMC is untouchable it’s hilarious.
I said whoever won last night would go to state, and I still think that. Avery's players have been together for 5 or 6 years, and I think think sutphin will get her 20 or 30 points, but 1 player only gets you so far. Remember you struggled with a smaller Cherokee team that Murphy easily beat 3 times. The key word guards!!!East is the favorite with Sutphin but like has been mentioned already Murphy's experience could play a factor.
Sutphin lives in the East Surry district wasn’t just oh I’m gonna move schools ordeal. Nice try thoLook man. I will be straight up with you.

My point is mountain teams can't just jump the ship. One year I'm playing for north Surry going to state in 2a. Now north Surry isn't that good I will just go to es and play in final four. The thing about mountain basketball teams is they are pure basketball teams. Most of the schools are too far apart to transfer. Like saying you put Murphy Cherokee and hayesville together they would kill teams. If you put Avery Mitchell and mh together they would kill people. You can't recruit in these mountain areas like you can the prep schools and charter schools down in the foothills.Sutphin lives in the East Surry district wasn’t just oh I’m gonna move schools ordeal. Nice try tho
I agree you can’t recruit like prep and charter schools but neither can East Surry her home is in our district there was no recruiting done. Know what your talking about before you start using recruiting as the reason East is good when that’s just false.My point is mountain teams can't just jump the ship.

Well if that's the case why was she at north Surry?I agree you can’t recruit like prep and charter schools but neither can East Surry her home is in our district there was no recruiting done.

Murphy's guards will eat those guards alive. Just wait til Saturday you will see.Well if that's the case why was she at north Surry?
Union academy is not better all around .You will never ever convince me otherwise. Both teams Avery and Murphy are better than ua. Ua lost to langtree and team Allegheny that beat langtree by 17 lost to Murphy by 27. You can't beat a team by that much and call it luck.I will be honest , I seen Murphy last year in the regional final , the dawgs are tough . I seen East last night , the girls around supthin carried the game for 3 quarters. But when the game was in doubt supthin took the game over, they could triple teamed her and it wouldn’t have helped , when she wants to or is told to its another level . Should be a good one, don’t think the cards are quite as good as the bears were last year, bears were real good at 5 positions, cards are outstanding at 1 and solid at 4. My prediction is back to back for the cards, depending on how the other 4 develop could be 1 more after the 2
Sorry but families move around in this area all the time if they rent. Most of the time it is job-related where in some cases a husband may have got a job in Winston 35 minutes plus from the Mount Airy / North Surry area and if the other spouse works in Mount Airy it saves a lot of gas, in the long run, to move to Pilot Mountain where East Surry sets. Same goes for Mount Airy as people are moving in and out of the city all the time and always have as long as I can remember. The main thing is I guarantee if there is a move made in this county it is done legally and because everyone knows everyone and what goes on no one would get by with an illegal move. Now I can't say much for the private or open enrollment schools in this conference, Y'all can debate that as I have had my fill proving their advantages over the years. If she came from North Surry it was a legal move and a waste of time debating it because it would have already exploded in the conference and has not been complained about in the NWC that I have seen.Murphy's guards will eat those guards alive. Just wait til Saturday you will see.
Well if that's the case why was she at north Surry?
Murphy was beaten by Hayesville, a team East Surry destroyed by 26 in spite of the officials calling that game completely one sided to try to keep Hayesville in it, otherwise it would have been by 40 or more. East beat Mt Airy by 36, who you only beat by 11, so I guess that means we would beat you by roughly 25 points or so by your logic. What’s your point? Do I think they are 36 points better than Mt Airy or 25 points better than you, NO! Either team is capable of potentially being blown out by the other, if one gets hot while the other is ice cold or on or off for any reason. That’s basketball, it happens. I get it, Avery and Murphy are the best teams ever! I know you have something against East for unfairly taking Avery’s rightfull spot on top of the 1A rankings this season. You pick against them every chance you get. Maybe you’ll finally be right this weekend, maybe not, just get over it already.Union academy is not better all around .You will never ever convince me otherwise.

I can see this as the best game to end the season and my opinion this will once again be for the real State Championship game no mater who wins. I like both teams but will East Surry let down the NWC after 13 straight years of State Championships ?Couldn’t have said it better myself

Could be but East Surry has been as in the movie Dirty Dancing . no body puts baby down, East Surry in football and basketball this year has taken that seriously, they don't like to be overlooked or put down ! They will be put down by the conference if they can't keep the NWC's string of 13 wins going.Who cares if you recruited her she lives in your district. And again, Murphy should never say anything about transfers. Ever. As far as the game, I think Murphy gets over the hump and gets it done, this wins the state title

Does it matter? Seems everyone protects the advantaged schools these days and I may be wrong as I think you may have also. If I am wrong I apologise !How many of those were by a private school playing public with unlimited boundary lines?
Yes or No ?Does it matter? Seems everyone protects the advantaged schools these days and I may be wrong as I think you may have also. If I am wrong I apologise !

Wait, did clapsaddle play at Hayesville?

Good luck to both teams and to both I say keep it in the west ! !
