Yes akabball!!! They are that much better than most in the 12th Region. You are talking about a team with a 4 multi year starters, and a sophmore class that is very talented. They only lost one player of any significance off last years final four team (a team that many regard did not get a fair shake in the game against SC). Sarah Hammond is such a team player that she does not realize her potential to take over almost any game she is involved in, in different ways. Rock may have one of the best overall female athletes in the State in Hunter. Solid overall team that is at a Tennessee Team Camp this week getting better I am sure. Rock will not get much competion in the 12th Region, not saying they will win every game, but they are the best. Watch them in the Xmas Tournaments and the level of competion they play.

SW will be good, but if you take away Fothergill, not sure the other girls can step up enough on a consistent basis to make teams pay. They will be a great 3 pt shooting team, but when shots are not falling it may expose some weaknesses.
Casey will be good, with Pittman and Coffman. Pittman needs to develop some more moves to go with her talent. Away from Casey she will not get by with that elbow hook moves she does. Sure to be a point of emphasis in the 12th Region.

Look for Danville to surprise some people with a young scrappy team that keeps improving as the youth gets older. Mason is sure to get the most out of them.

Lincoln lost everyone.

Wayne County does not have enough support for Upchurch.

Mercer graduated there strength, had a couple of shooters that are returning could be one of the best of the rest, behind SWHS and Casey Co. Should be able to compete with those schools.

School not mentioned will be average competitors.

Bottom 4 - Monticello, SHS, PC, McCreary

Monticello well coached, gets the most out of the girls just not a lot of talent in that small school. They will get after you.

A once dominant Somerset team in the 12th region as fallin from grace. Time for a total make over in that program. Rumor has it that Coffey is not playing and the Thomas girl has suffered another injury.

PC and McCreary are just not very good programs at the moment.

I agree with everything you said excellent post. Rice started 2 7th graders last year in Addison Corder and Destiny Molden they were very good ball handlers and did a great job considering the youth. Fothergill is the all-time leading scorer in Lady Warrior history. I personally think Addison will destory her record as she scored around 300 points in her first year. Your right about if Fothergill gets in trouble and has to go to the bench. I am not sure as if Pierce and the others can step up and make teams pay. I guess we'll see come November.
