Clay County vs. South Laurel (13th region final)
#28
I have thought and thought and thought about this game. LOL

South is big strong and got some amazing shooters.
Clay is quick, fast and gritty.

Two teams with way different playing styles. It will be a great game!!
While you are correct in saying that Clay doesn't match up with South, the reverse is also true...South doesn't match up well with Clay.

Clay did beat HC by a good margin, but I wouldn't call it handily. At least two times in that game, we led by 7, but broke down mentally and lost our focus in the 4th.

When we beat South Laurel, we executed a flawless defense. Taylor never touched the ball when there wasn't at least two defensive guys on him. He is a great player but depends on his finesse and isn't as physical as I had expected.

After a lot of thought, two facts keep sticking in my mind.....1) Clay is a tournament team, hands down and 2) It's difficult to beat the same team three times in one season.

All that being said, South will be ready for them.

If Clay can put together a defensive game, I see an overtime win for them.
If everybody doesn't play defense, South will pull this game out!

Good luck to both teams for an injury free game!!
