Spring Fall League-Too Close To Call


If you think there packed in now, wait until late February because this could have been a Region 2 Final preview in a fall league match-up between The Woodlands and Dekaney. Here's the deal, providing both teams win their their districts, they could meet to see who represents the region in Austin. Several obstacles do stand in  both teams way, including two teams from Dekaney's district, Klein Forest and Klein Collins, plus a team that was 3 points away in overtime from making it to the R2 finals last season, DeSoto


The Woodlands back-court of Page Bradley and Ashlyn Hargraves is an awesome 1-2 punch on offense as they showed against the aggressive Dekaney squad that has depth like no other team in the area


Kelsey Lang's game is steadily catching up to her 6'4 frame and that mid-range jumper is looking better and better every time I see her. The real key will be Anna Strickland who provides things that often don't appear in the box score


I mentioned Dekaney's depth however the key to how far they go will rest on the shoulders of their seniors, Shunta Nevitt and Alexis Durley who have been a part of the team through the bad, the good and now perhaps the great. Nevertheless these are two of the top teams in the area and at this stage you can't count anyone out
