We have no shortage of scorers this season, that's for sure.

I'm very impressed with the scoring ability of Chaunce Johnson from Boone. Very smooth scorer. Has a chance to score 20+ every night he plays. Can keep them in a game against almost anyone.

JD, here's story I wrote about Antietam for today's Eagle:

12:48

Great question, JD. I think Antietam/Brandywine is sort of a pick 'em tonight. Game's at Antietam, so that helps the Mounts. Bullets have a little more experince, coming off a good year.

JD

12:48

What’s your opinion on Antietam, Mike? Would you consider Antietam to be an underdog in this matchup tonight?

Mike Drago

12:47

OK, glad to hear you say that.

Vanilla Ice

12:47

I’m not talking the county I am referring to solely players in division III. Stevie Mitchell and Butler are heads and shoulders the best two players in the county.

Mike Drago

12:47

Oh, OK. We were talking best in county.

Vanilla Ice

12:46

Baptiste and Harrison are two of my top players in Division III, not the county.

Mike Drago

But there's always a chance.

12:46

I wouldn't bet the rent money on it, Jason. Eagles haven't won that game in almost 10 years, and they just got blown out by Muhlenberg.

12:45

Against Reading High? Well, sure, Eagles have a shot.

Jason

12:45

Does Exeter have any shot tonight?

Mike Drago

I wouldn't go as far as calling it a sandwich, however, because . . . well, it's not.

12:45

I do enjoy a hot dog with sauerkrat, JA. Thanks for asking.

cool

12:44

How was your hot dog with sauerkraut sandwich on New Years Day?

Mike Drago

12:44

Wes was Player of the Year last year, and no one has passed him so far.

JD

12:44

Westley Butler Is easy top3

Darren

12:43

Had the chance to watch Stevie Mitchell from Wilson play a lot in AAU this summer for Santos Martinez (Muhl's JV coach) and when he's on his game, he's very tough to stop. Even against good talent in KOP againt kids from Philly area.

Mike Drago

Wesley Butler and Stevie Mitchell would impress you, I'm sure.

12:43

Interesting take, Ice. I suggest you watch some games in Berks I and II as well.

Vanilla Ice

12:43

My number one would be Baptise by far. A good complete player. Harrison plays both sides of the ball well and grinds for his points. Is not flashy but gets his. Had a rough few games recently but really like how the kid plays.

MC Hammer

12:42

Takes a little time to get used to, but overall good

ExBerksCoach

12:42

New format is much better, Mike.

Mike Drago

Keep your eye on Cedar Crest, Cumberland Valley, Chambersburg.

12:42

About as wide-open as they come, Ex

ExBerksCoach

12:41

The District 3 6A tournament this year is going to be incredible. Any number of teams could win it, with Wilson and Reading in the mix with Harrisburg and numerous LL teams.

Mike Drago

12:41

I've talked about Tyler; dead, stone-cold shooter. You leave him open, it's 3 points.

Matt

12:41

Tyler Kipp one of the best Juniors nobody talks about, good all around player

Mike Drago

12:40

Time for me to ask a question: Is this new Chat format better/easier for you to view and ask questions? First time we're using it, so I don't know what it's like from the other side.

JG

12:39

I’d have to disagree with you ice

Mike Drago

I'm afraid to ask, but who do you have No. 1?

12:39

Interesting viewpoint, Ice. You're the first person to suggest he's the second-best player.

Vanilla Ice

12:39

My apologies I meant in division III, not the county. The player I was referring to was John Harrison.

Mike Drago

12:39

Electoral system, as you've seen, can distort things.

12:38

BCIAA is sort of set up like the electoral system, where the smaller schools are protected and can sometimes rule over the larger schools.

12:37

That's because it's not fair, Matt. BCIAA doesn't want it to be, or else they would change it.

Matt

12:37

why does the top seed always play Reading or Wilson in semis doesnt seem fair or the 5th seed has a harder game then the 6th seed for first round of counties.
