Anyone been following this? Saw where Lenoir City and Bearen will play for the district (4?) title.

Thats is correct, I saw all of the LC/Catholic game, first half of the Bearden/West game. Catholic swept the season series against LC, but LC was able to pull off a nail biter. Catholic had no answer for Tyler Hood in 2nd half. Bearden beat the daylights out of West from the opening tip. I would have to say West really under achieves. They are so athletic but it just seems like they roll the ball out and go play, much like Bearden appeared to do last year. This years Bearden team plays together and is fun to watch.
The key to the championship game will be can Bearden hold Hood to 25 or less. If so, they most likely win.

First let me say I'm a proud member of the 2000-2001 District 4 AAA Tournament champs and the MVP of that tourney.

I coach at a single A school so I haven't seen a lot of games other than ours but I saw West and Farragut play each other twice.

I think West had a lot of talent and athleticism that was wasted this year. I haven't seen Bearden play but I think West at minimum should have finished second.
