Girls basketball in the 14th is extremely down region wide.  Knott has the best team in the 14th, but still overall a weak team.  Yes, there will be a winner and someone will go to Rupp.  However, as far as strength of region, it is the lowest it's been in years.  Things these teams lack are depth, ball handling, and basketball IQ.  Yes, it comes with time and experience and I think there are some talented young players in the region, but not enough of them.  The 14th region has some work to do.

I agree with this. Seems like numbers for girls basketball in the 14th has really dropped over the last few years. I always wondered if volleyball becoming more competitive and popular within the region over the last 7+ years or so has contributed to that? So many players and even full teams lack basic basketball skills as you said but the game has changed a lot too. It seems it’s turned more into 3 point shooting contests with not very much ball movement or running plays.
