It’s summer....things aren’t flowing like a regional final. Maybe my “great” should’ve been very good. All I know is I watched Northridge play Jackson and while Jackson stymied them in the 2nd half, Northridge had 5 kids as quick as Jackson’s quickest player. I can’t watch SE District basketball all summer and then say Northridge was greatly athletic. I’m not sure who in the SE District would beat Huntington High, they could shoot like crazy and when I see multiple players take off a couple feet inside the foul line and finish through traffic at the basket....I’m just going to label them great athletes. That’s just me.

The Jacksons, Warrens, Gallias....all solid varsity teams and all were missing starting players.
Maybe it was just pretty much bad basketball....but I got a decent bit out of it and I’m sure the coaches got a lot more.
Good Luck coach. Good info. Jackson without the likely 2nd best player and 3 rotation bench kids. Regardless of who you guys put out there they were very quick players.Jeff Lisath wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 12:40 pmIronman92 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 10:50 amIt’s summer....things aren’t flowing like a regional final.

Not taking anything away from Jackson, I thought they played really well and I believe they have a solid team. We (Northridge) only played three varsity level players the first half and none in the second half, those were all JV guys. We also left two starters and a 6th man at home, and one starter sat the bench all day for disciplinary reasons, so you can't put much value on summer ball. I'm sure everyone there didn't have all of their kids as well. But that's how you get better, you throw other kids in the fire to see what they can do. I really like the PG for Jackson and Gallia is solid team along with Huntington. If all goes well, we will be a very good basketball team this upcoming season.
