Pike County -

1 - Belfry/Virgie - Belfry is the better team but on any given night Virgie could shoot the ball well and beat them and Richardson is an athlete, if it comes down to coaching though Rowe and his staff has the edge, as they have been on region title staffs as well as having double/triple the experience of Varney, Varney, and Howard.

2 - Dorton - Their guards have come along nicely and the big boy can change games. They also have one of the top middle school coaches in the state.

3 - Pikeville - Rowe is a very nice player but they just don't have a lot to go with him. Dont be shocked if they beat Belfry or Virgie though, as they are both very intense rivalries in the county.

4 - Millard - They are athletic but in all honesty by January they will not beat any of the top 3 anywhere but their home floor. I dont see them beating Belfry or Virgie anywhere but Millard because the officiating there is ALWAYS horrible.

The rest of them are about the same, EC and FC might be the 4-5 teams.

Floyd Co.

1 - Betsy Layne - They won the Reno's and beat some very good team in doing so. I feel only Wesley will be able to give them a game later on in Floyd Co.

2 - Wesley - 3 really nice players and a solid coach, if they had any bench they could challenge BL.


Overall

1 - BL
2 - Belfry/Virgie
3 - Dorton
4 - Wesley/Pikeville
5 - Millard
