Area Top 10?

[MHSBulldogs]

With District play kicking off for some this week, any thoughts on who would make up an area Top 10 at this stage of the season?

[Hoopster-007]

BH "should" be #1.

[MHSBulldogs]

How bout this to get the conversation started:

1) Legacy

2) Barbers Hill

3) Dayton

4) Ozen

5) Lumberton

6) Central

7) East Chambers

8) Hardin Jeff

9) Evadale

10) Hardin

Ok - tell me who I overlooked or why this list is wrong

Even though they lost to Legacy?  Or are you saying that they should be better but aren't?

Looks pretty good to me honestly.

Both. Even though BH lost to Legacy and BH should be better.  If I am correct, Ozen defeated Legacy 68-65, however, the opinion to date has Legacy #1 and Ozen #4?  In my opinion, Legacy earned the privilege of being considered ahead of BH because of the "W". I emphasized "should" because I find it difficult to understand how any team can lose 70-65 and allow one player to score 57 of the 70 points - all but 13.

Legacy beat Ozen last Friday in the YMBL.  But they did lose earlier in the season.

And it is difficult to believe.  But Lexi Morris is some kind of special.  It was difficult for me to believe when she dropped 40+ in her first game as a freshman 3 years ago!

[MHSBulldogs]

She is phenomenal - going to be fun to keep up with her this season and follow her at Baylor!

I have had the opportunity to officiate a couple of her games over the years and have watched her in others. She is one of those special high school players that you don't see very often and seems to have a turbo button that the other players don't have on the court.

Well put.  I've often said she would be the best player on some boys' teams in our area.  Still believe that.

Very well said. She could b a true pg or u can put her as a true sg. She sees da court very well. U c kids stay the same she progresses each year. She works on new things in the off season. And it shows why she is the number one point guard in da nation and arguably could be the number 1 player in the state. Against charlie collier bh

Perhaps I misunderstood the initial question, which I thought pertained to Top 10 "Teams".

[coach90]

Just saying....

Charli Collier- junior 2018- forward/ post 6'5

Alexis Morris- senior 2017- guard/ 5'?

Great idea and good looking list.

I think Dayton should be #1.  They have a great 1-2 punch with  Grays and Mallet.

Dayton was 3rd last year in district and should be in the playoffs again this year.  It think if they are able to beat BH in a few weeks, then that will help people notice them.  The 3 teams above them have been seen by more local people in quality games.

Polls at the local and state level have some value, but the real value comes in getting as deep as you can in the playoffs.

Legacy is #1... point blank 

[Hoopster-007]

LOL!  First, there was the 1 punch, Legacy, and point blank. Now, the 1-2 punch, Dayton? :-)

[7mary3]

Until BH is knocked off of their roost they are the clear favorite in 21-5A.  Dayton should be #2 but will struggle when playing a good sound team & lost one of the better shooters in the district to softball.  Crosby is down this yr & will be fighting for the 3rd spot with Kingwood Park who will surprise some people this yr.  Humble should take the 4th spot.

BH vs Dayton can soon be settled on the court. Sort of the same way BH vs Legacy was decided.  Would you agree?

I agree, but it remains difficult to understand BH allowing one person to score 57 of 70 points.  Likewise, Dayton's 1-2 punch scoring 59 of the 69 total points against Humble.  I enjoyed watching both players. Clearly, they've both benefited from the off season/summer ball; and your school coach is giving them the freedom to play to the strengths of their game.  I am interested in seeing how both teams match-up, and the adjustments, if any, that will be made during the contest.  Should be a great game!
