I don't care for how much Richland relies on 3 point shots, but they play well together and I think they will work for and get quality shots if the game is tight down the stretch. Kindred has a very nice team and are well coached. I just think they may have a better chance getting by Richland next year with another year on Keller.
In region 2 I'll be pulling for Thompson. But, I think HCV has improved as much as any team in the state this year. They lost to Thompson at home early by 7, but it could have been by double that pretty easily. Later in the season they lost in double ot in Thompson by 2. I just don't think Thompson has improved a ton as the season has progressed. They have 3 tall players, but IMO Overby is the only one on their team that can score down low consistently other than Schwabe, who plays at a guard and stands about 5'8". I see HCV winning by 6-10 points. I hope I am wrong, mainly to see a different team at state.

good luck to the Tommies and the Burros
When you say regardless of anything else, you really mean it don't you!
Like regardless of the fact that neither of those two teams actually made it to the championship game and the winner of your fictional "Championship" (Grafton) lost to HCV last night by 14. Granted, for most of the game it was closer than that, but HCV pretty much controlled the whole game and led the whole way.
Also, regardless of the fact that Cavalier was the #6 seed in the tournament and lost to Thompson by over 30 points earlier in the year. Regardless of the fact they also lost to HCV, Grafton and Larimore during the regular season, which would mean they lost to the #1 through #4 seeds.
It was a great game between Grafton and Cavalier on Monday night but it's hard for me to buy that it was the "Championship"
You're right that Region 2 was stacked, but you are doing a great disservice to the #1 and #2 ranked teams in the tournament and the STATE. I would also agree that both Grafton and Cavalier have great players but I think you're over stating it.
I'm definitely not a points guy, but if you insist, Cav was up 14-15 on HCV in CV and up by 13 I believe over Grafton in the Betty....scored 25 points in one quarter with their zone and fast break....I would have liked to have seen much more zone into transition all year......Cav had the only 20 game season in the region (rest had 21 22) going into the regional tourn, they had to deal with a young mans suicide 5 days before Christmas and the Langdon game was never played.....it was as an adverse year as it gets for any town or any team, so I'm really not to worried if I hurt someones feelings..........once again
Good Luck! HR OD
I wasn't saying you were hurting someone's feelings. I said you were doing those other teams a disservice when you disregard actual on-court results.
I was not aware of the suicide you mentioned, must have been difficult time for that group of young men. Hate to see kids go through that.
