(7) South Webster vs. (2) Racine Southern

Post by Vito Corleone »

Looking forward to this one. Unfortunately we have to wait 6 more days. Can the Jeeps pull off another upset win over Southern in a Sectional Final?

Seen both. Should be a good game. I think southern has a little more, but Blevins best player on floor.

Had a few people see the game and didn't think SW played THAT great. You think they could play better than they did last night? Or were you fully satisfied with how they played?

Vito:

I don’t think we played great last night. We had some defensive letdowns and truly need to straighten out some things in the upcoming week.

One reason might be is that — once again — we had a totally different lineup and that takes time to put together.

We did hold Federal Hocking to 27 though. They don’t light it up by any stretch but had only been under 30 once before this season.

Southern has a good 6 and at least one player who matches up a little better on Blevins. (I think they will zone us at least 1/2 the time though)

They will score more than 45 on us. We have to limit turnovers and rebound well offensively and force them into working for every basket.

I think it’s going to be very tight.

Interesting to see the picks by the regulars on the district pickem thread. I think it’s 60/40 for Southern. Not bad for a 2/7 matchup.

I just did the math on the pickem thread and it’s actually 7/18 in favor of Southern. Not quite 60/40. More like 70/30.

There was 1 outlier. He picked Federal Hocking and then Southern.

Southern has gone zone in the past. 1-3-1 what I remember. I think they will zone as well. If that's the case, then the opportunity for 2nd chance points there. Blevins could eat up O boards which is good for SW

With the River flooding Southern is not ready for baseball season yet. So I see them taking this one.

I thought webster played decent last night. It’s not like we were watching a real tight game after the first half. Trying out some different combos and seeing what’s clicking and what’s not. Gotta remember Voiers started JV for close to half the season and has been getting decent time in since he now comes off the Varsity bench.

Gotta say though, whether we win or lose, it’s been a good season to watch as a fan. We didn’t win that many games but there was a lot of close ones we should’ve and some blowouts too. Watching these kids get better and find their place has been fun. Watching some monster dunks and Lebron style chase downs, Ruth and Holstein scrapping for rebounds and loose balls and Corriel break ankles, and some stars emerge from the bench, makes me wonder what these guys will be able to do next year.

I figured 7-15 was about where they would be at this year. Had Blevins stayed healthy, they could've been more 9-13, 10-12 range which isn't bad in SOC II and no Seniors

To beat Southern you must have good guard play. You obviously need to be prepared to handle the pressure they bring at you for 32 minutes on the defensive side. A team that can go 8 deep helps vs southern for sure.If South Webster has that along with the best player on the court id say game on .

The chemistry of the kids this year has been fun to watch. The injuries and sickness in the last month have forced different lineups and different roles. And yet, you don’t notice the shrugged shoulders or external frustration of a decreasing role in the body language of the kids.

Southern presses sw soon as they get off the bus. Jeeps down fall is handling pressure. Southern was at NB and minford and both teams showed how to beat sw with or without blevins. Look for a tornado of pressure id say and if coach lets sw get rattled it could be trouble for jeeps nation. Now on the other side sw has the best player in that sectional. Blevins is a loaf and can single handed take a team down. But it all comes down to Ruth Coriell and smith taking the pressure and not making mistakes

South Webster by 7. Should be a fun game but dont think Southern can stop Blevins.
