Based on Monday night's game, Paintsville is no way one of the top 5 teams in the region right now. They are out of shape and turn the ball over way too much. Paintsville should have put P-burg away when the score was 19-5. P-burg scored the next 7 points to make a game of it again. Paintsville will always turn the ball over when they are putting on a dribble exhibition like Monday night.

I was surprised at Jarrell's stats. She is in terrible shape and I didn't think she played very well because of it. I couldn't believe they didn't get her the ball more often. She only got 8 shots and 3 of those came off of offensive rebounds. 14 pts and 14 rebounds. Can you imagine what she would have done if she was in shape?

On a positive note. Paintsville could be very good. They did shoot the ball pretty decent (19-45 42%) and that was with missing 5-7 easy shots. When Jarrell gets in good shape, they will be 30+ points better than P-burg.

The # 12 girl for P-burg is a pretty good player. Too bad she has to play out of position. This girl would be real good on the wing. She can handle the ball and shoot.

Good luck to both teams.
