[Black Bear Cuz]

This HC team has not played against any strong competition all year and that has effected their development as a 13th region favorite. When the 3rd and maybe 4th best team in the 14 region (Hazard) is the toughest team you have played all year there is something wrong.. I know weather has effected their most recent opportunity to play some strong competition, but IMO, they should have been playing a lot tougher schedule early and often to help prepare them for a tournament run! Instead of traveling all the way to Hilton Head and playing against VERY mediocre comp, they should have been playing in Lexington and Louisville against some of the best teams in Ky..... That's just my opinion, I'm sure some will agree and some won't.... I do believe this bunch can still overcome this, but it's not going to be easy!!!
