Run4Fun is right - a lot of questions will be answered by the games scheduled in a week or two. I think it will be some great basketball.
I haven't seen Rugby play, but it seems you've followed the PRFL team a bit. What can you tell us?

When you have a very good, balanced squad like PRFL, at crunch time there can be indecisiveness about who should take control and get the baskets the team needs. Thompson has no such issue. Send Overby down low, give her the ball, and get out of the way.

I think North Star should have no problem with Rugby. I think Rugby is way over rated. This will be their first real big challenge of the season. North Star 62 Rugby 49
As for Thompson and PRFL, it will all depends on PRFL team shows up. Their last two games they started 19 points down against Stephan/Argyle and 17 points down against North Star. Both games they were able to come back, but I don't think that'll work against Thompson. I want to think that this will be a closer game with PRFL having the home court and with their last 2 games being a challenge. PRFL can be tough on defense, but needs to get better at taking the open shot. I see PRFL winning 53 to 50.

Northstar beats 2 ranked teams in one week.
Do they deserve any first place votes?

Given the two teams were ranked above them, and they didn't have a problem with either, I'd say they deserve most of them.

I wouldn't go that far to say that they didn't have no problem with PRFL. That game was within 4 points with less than 2 minutes left in the game. If they didn't have the one loose to Four Winds, I would say they were worthy of a first place vote. They will probably move up to the #2 spot, Rugby will drop down to #3 and PRFL should be #4.
