Jackson 8th grade is a good team, they have a great shooter in Ridout, she is still there correct? and Poe in the middle, they will definitely be a good scrimmage for Minford, better not play zone against Ridout, she will light em up about 2 ft behind the 3 pt line..and as far as winning the state, does it really matter what division? Either way you are playing some good talent..between 7th and 8th grade year you start having alot of improvement from other players and lack of improvement from some, so it will be an different look for most 8th grade teams , you can't always base it on last years 7th grade, but good luck Lady Falcons and to Gary Gambill and the boys..

the jackson 8 th grade girls are very good. if i remember correctly they also have several other good players. we played against some of them in aau. there is a couple of guards i think Hoover and Willis. both are good ball handlers and excillent shooters from any where on the court.

Logan 7th grade girls will be strong. 7 of the girls have 23 seasons of AAU ball between them. Not bad for alot of 12 and 13 year olds. Thanks Tuck.

The Portsmouth 8th grade upgraded its roster with the addition of Dakota Smith, who transferred from Notre Dame........Smith is projected to be a starter for the Trojans. With the additions of Cody Stapleton from Sciotoville and Smith, the 8th grade boys should have a really good year.

Piketon's 7th grade girls team should be really good this year. Not sure what the 8th grade has, but the Piketon 7th grade girls has a chance to be one of the better teams in the area.

Waverly has a very nice 8th grade team. Got to watch them scrimmage against Western. In the same scrimmage, Westerns 7th grade beat Waverlys 7th. Western has a very nice group of 7th graders.

As for 8th grade, I know in the SOC 1 Notre Dame has the best team in the league. They went undeated last season with not much of a test. Clay also has a decent 8th grade team.

Easterns 8th grade team should be improved. They got a lot better as last season went on.

I mostly keep up on the Pike County teams, but I got a chance to watch a few other team last season, Hopefully I can catch a few more teams this year.
