Checked a few things on the net about Gallatin. Max Prepps has Betsy Layne ranked 67th in the state and Gallatin ranked 96th. Gallatin is a small team from what I have read and seen but very quick and can shoot lights out. If it is a fast pace game, Gallatin will have the advantage but its a lot easier to slow a team down then to speed them up. Look for Casey Adkins to have a big game in this one, also, i would expect to see Dylan Hamilton posting up a lot in this game too. Not sure a box and 1 will work for Gallatin County against Betsy Layne because of the mismatch in side. However, Betsy Layne will have to cover the deep shot which will open driving lanes for Gallatin to get to the rim and try to get Betsy Layne's bigs in foul trouble.

And for those who believe Betsy Layne is not tournament tested, they won district last year and played extremely strong during this year's all a even though Nathan Martin never really went off in any game. Also, during Valley's state run last year, Betsy Layne played them tougher then anyone Valley played along the way. I believe they might have been the only team to score within 10 of Valley but I could be mistaken about that.
