Anxious for Scrimmages to start and see how people are stacking up after a long summer of no team camps and basketball. Any good scrimmages coming up that could tell us where teams are stacking up to each other?
huntersheppard - Crowder won every qtr but one against Webbers. Webbers stayed pretty competitive through out. The Shanks girl from Webbers can dish it and they still have shooters and are well coached. I think once they get in basketball shape they will a Top 10 Class B team.

Depends how they look regular season, I don't know if I see them making it to state, Shanks is good but she doesn't shoot from 3, They have a good freshman that should start but we will see, Webber hasn't been a true top 8 team since 2019 but that roster that year was loaded i remember cause I covered them 4 different times that year

ross212 Could they beat a top team though, Someone like Leflore or Pittsburg could give them a ballgame but as for someone like Kiowa or Red Oak that has a better all around team, thats where I'm uncertain, I won't get to see them play until end of January as they are not in any tournaments I cover
Although they beat Varnum, Pittsburg was under the radar most the season last year. I see them as the better team comparing them to Red Oak, Kiowa, and LeFlore. They have a proven coach that I hear brought some very good kids with him. Early predictions for state! NW: Lomega, Hammon SW: Cyril, Lookeba-Sickles NE: Varnum, Kiowa SE: Whitesboro, Pittsburg

Webbers Falls, Leflore, and Pittsburg are all better than Red Oak in my opinion. Who knows, that might change over the course of the season, due to Butcher being back as the HC. He does a very good job. Those other three teams are comparable to Kiowa and may be deeper as well, with the exception of Webbers.

ross212 yeah true, Back in the 80s and 90s Webbers Falls was practically a powerhouse, Jerry Ward was there back then if i remember right he got runner up in '89 and '98, won titles in '91 and '96, went to state frequently between 1983 and 1998 which is why I think they start out as a dark horse since Ward has been there done that, Only reason I had Red Oak in the mix was cause they got Stormi Baggs back from what I heard from someone there, she was there once before, Would I rank them above Kiowa? Probably not but I've been proven wrong before

I knew that guy wasn't playing with a full deck, I had heard from another coach that was true but I wasn't to sure cause I had heard different things, I also heard she wasn't at Whitesboro now but I don't remember who said that

ross212 If I remember right she was at Greenwood in Arkansas her freshman year then she went to Red Oak the next year, Then last year she was at Crowder until midseason then transferred to Whitesboro
Yeah he is, Came back after a couple years at McCurtain, He hasn't won a title in basketball that I remember but he's come close, The two years I remember he got runner up he lost to Okarche in 2014 and Lomega in 2016
