South Laurel is the favorite but Clay should be able to at least compete with them. Mathis, Asher, Parker, Phillips, Mills, and Collins is a pretty solid group. Mathis is right up there with Collett and Steele from South, Parker will be the second best big in the region and Phillips might be the best shooter in the region.

S. Laurel is more loaded than Otis Campbell, first of the month, on a Saturday night! So loaded that Sydney Hall can transfer from Perry Central and sit the bench and be used as a platoon player. The Lady Cards have a nice center who can also shoot from the outside, and have 2 forwards that can blister you from either wing. Done witnessed them on numerous times folks. They're gonna be tough.

As for Clay Co., we all know that visiting them in Manchester, you're already behind by 5 points before tipoff. As for on the road, they're always super tuff. For sure, Clay better bring the Cl"A"y game when it comes to those Lady Cards, but I never count out them Tigers!
