Fleming is a solid team, and I consider them a sleeper in the region.

For Russell to play them to the wire speaks well of Russell, and the job that Kidwell is doing. I think Russell is putting the rest of the region on notice - when March rolls around, you better not take them lightly.

Russell is maturing faster than most of us thought they would.

Dugan and Gray are a couple of the most athletic players you'll find in the 16th region. Both of them shoot the 3's and can drive to the basket. I got the impression that Fleming is a good team. They just lack size underneath.
