Hello 1A Fans!!

So far no real surprises in 1A GBB as Ashley W. breaks the all-time 3pt career scoring record vs SanPasquel. While others only reported this after it happened we have been on this story for some time and have enjoyed giving her credit for this great accomplishmeny.

GBB: Northland Prep vs Joe City: This is a huge game @ JC tonight! This could pave the way into who is the 2 seed going into the regional tournament. Both teams are playing good basketball going into this matchup.

GBB:St David defeats Valley Union: St. david kept their playoff hopes alive by defeating VU 49-24 in Thursday night action! This was a huge game as a loss vs VU would not only have kept them behind Vu but far down the power point list behind VU. St. David has been up and down this season and were about ready to fall out of contention for the 3-4th spot in the South. They now sit in the 4th spot a few points ahead of VU.

South Playoff Power Points Weekly Update: if the season were to stop today here are the 4 teams that would be in the state tournament from the South Division from 1-4 seeds:

Girls: Gila Bend, Patagonia, Green Fields, St. David

Boys: Valley Union, St. Gregory, Tanque Verde, St. Augustine

One key note here is that although St. Gregs has beaten VU, they would still be the 2nd seed in the playoffs. This could get interesting as the teams will meet again. We could see St. Gregs win both games and still be the #2 seed!

GBB: St. Greg vs Tanque Verde: Both of these teams need a win but St. Gregs needs this win to stay in the hunt for the 4th spot in the south conference. The loser of this game I think is done and will not be able to make up the points needed to try and leapfrog over St. david and Valley Union.

Boys Basketball: St. Michaels loses to Mogollon in what many would be considered an upset! The inside game of Mogollon was to much for St. Mikes as Mogollon was able to get them to play their game.

BBB: St. David vs St. Augustine: This is a do or die for St. david and their playoff hopes. If they lose tonight I am not sure they can get back into the hunt as they are already way behind the 4th spot. If St. Augustine loses they are still in good shape but do not want to give a spark to St. David. This is a case when you have a chance to squash the team who can bump yopu from the playoffs and we will see if St. Augustine can take care of business at home tonight.
