District 7 seeds teams as well and dont have play-ins either if that were the case Penn Hills would be 3 seed and Muhls would have easier game as well.

Mike Drago

12:22

In District 7, the team that loses to the eventual champ is the No. 3 seed, the team that loses to the runner-up is No. 4.

I don't have a big problem with that system.

But I don't mind going to watch a third-place game, either.

Phish Dixx

12:22

How good is Tep this year? Maybe Snip can slow the game down a little?

Mike Drago

12:23

Imhotep is Imhotep. Always a powerhouse.

Six state titles and nine Final Fours in 10 years.

This team goes 6-7, 6-8, 6-6 across the front.

12:24

Certainly, BC will go zone, try to slow the pace, use both bigs at the same time for stretches.

Phish Dixx

12:24

If BC wins but Snip gets thrown out and shows up at the next game and they happen to win again and no one finds out until the following game what happens?

Mike Drago

12:25

Really, Phish?

Were you up all night thinking about that?

Phish Dixx

12:25

Do you think having Paiton back gives BC a chance

Mike Drago

12:25

OK, better question, Phish.

Certainly will help getting a 6-7 back on the floor.

12:26

Question is, how effective can he be and how long can he play after missing so much time.

I'm thinking you'll see him only in short spurts.

Jim

12:26

In your opinion will you be covering a game come next week?

Mike Drago

12:26

Yes.

Jim

12:26

Lets be realistic does any Berks team have a legit chance to win this first round.

Mike Drago

12:26

Sure.

12:27

I can see Muhlenberg winning Friday night, Reading, Wilson, Kutztown and/or Antietam on Saturday.

12:28

I don't have much of a reference point on this SLA-Beeber team, but I think Kutztown has a shot.

Cougars playing their best ball at the end of the year.

That's a coin flip.

Antietam is without two starters, otherwise I would think it could win that game.

It still could win without them.

12:29

If Muhlenberg plays as well as it did against Lower Dauphin it's got a chance against any 5A team in the state.

Reading/La Salle is a coin flip.

Home crowd should help Red Knights.

I see them coming out much more determined this time.

They should have learned that from the Harrisburg game.

12:30

La Salle is a strong team, but don't forget Berks Catholic had a seven-point lead at halftime in Philly last month.

No reason to think that game won't be close.

Phish Dixx

12:30

BC had LaSalle on the Ropes just could not finish

Knights of the Roundball

12:30

Roman is missing a top 100 recruit from 2020 and is still running out a PSU recruit, a Joe's recruit and the #4 and #12 prospects from the class of 2022. Just unreal depth

Mike Drago

12:30

Yeah, Roman's sort of like the Duke of the PIAA. They just select who they want.

12:31

Gotta give Perkiomen Valley credit for knocking them off a few years ago.

Just shows what having Mike Murphy on your staff can do for you.

Jeff

12:31

Reading will beat Lasalle and there fans will purchase State championship tickets after that
