The season is only a few weeks away. What are some of your thoughts about the area teams, then how they will fare against their schedules.Open gyms and camps can give those in the know a pretty good idea what we should expect. How about sharing what you've heard and seen with the rest of us.

I know that 3 COA players made the All-tourney team at the IU camp last week. Mallory Pabst, Christy Fulk, and I can't remember the third (I think it was Bakke). Coach A. told me last week she was very pleased with the THS JV (4th in the Varsity Division).

Hey Beeler, how about running down the MIC for us. Other than South, who should be strong and who are some players that we should watch?

Here is my take on the MIC
Lawrence North-Always have parent problems (toward the bottom every year) Warren Central-Way down, graduated almost all the starters but are famous for having unbelievable athletes. Ben Davis-Always in contention but have a new coach and no superstars, but good athletes. Carmel-Toward the top, 2 good middles and Nicole Martin as the setter (played for Circle City 17-1). Good returning core of players. Center Grove-Down again from last year. I pick them in the middle of the conference, very beatable but good young athletes. North Central-Should continue to improve from last year. A solid middle retuning, the setter is pretty weak. Most don't play club and that will hurt the team defensively and in serve recieve. THNorth-Better this year. I expect to see Hutson becoming more of a factor. If Kim can give her the rock, she can boost that from the celler of the conference for the first time in a while. THSouth-The favorite to win the conference, returning all but one starting DS and adding a great group of freshmen. Again, just my take! |

I'm assuming that you put those in random order to start.

Okay coach, what's your take on the state's top 20.One class. Givens....Terre Haute will be there. Delaware county schools should be good again.Cathedral and Blomington North will be formidable. Anyone from the southern part of the state?

Watch Columbus East this year. They have 1 outside that can flat out hit. New Albany and Floyd Central should compete again for their sectional and Castle should continue their history of winning the weakest sectional known to man. True state contenters from the south are THSouth, Columbus East, Bloomington North, New Albany, Floyd Central, in that order.

Do you really think Columbus East is better than Blomington North? Didn't North handle TH South the two times they met last year? Were either North or East hit hard by graduation?

Do you have any idea who those 2 teams are? Have you seen either one of them. Columbus East has a quality team this year and yes Bloomington North will be good as well. They lost 3 starters but return a great talented core, AND lost a high caliber coach (even though he was hated by many). He knew how to prepare kids to win. Eugene has something to prove before I will say Bloomington North will even win that sectional. It's not the kids, the talent is there, can the coach make it happen (club and high school are NOT the same). We will see!! And yes, I do give the early season edge to Columbus East (August 23, all 3 teams go at it)!!

How will Bishop's international play affect the start of the Braves season? Will she miss the Columbus East tourney and others? Will she have to put in the 10 practices before competing in matches? How does the ISHAA rule on someone that is/has been competing in his/her sport at the start of a season? Certainly she will be in better shape when she returns than most kids trying out.
