To be brutally honest it isn't going to matter come up the road state time. PV and Appy are by far the best two teams in a very mediocre basketball distric. Folks get mad at me when I say that,but here we are in 2010 and the 1974 PV Vikings remain the last state champ the LPD has seen in boys basketball (girls being a different story with JJK,Appy,Clintwood,and Pound winning state). Don't get me wrong though friends: I would LOVE to see an LPD boys team win it,it would be the happiest crow-eating ever,but alas I am a realist,and can't see it happening. Prove me wrong guys-ANYBODY PV,Appy...whoever. To answer your initial question though: No I don't see anybody winning the LPD but PV or Appy,but having said that,an off-night can result in a loss nonetheless,and I wouldn't be shocked if nobody were unbeaten in distric play.

Tell you what Biggin,let's revisit this thread after state,and I promise you,give you my word as a man,I will gladly eat crow and i'll do you guys one better: I'll hang a Viking basketball avatar up and buy you and pvfan both a steak dinner. If I am right however,i'll say in advance that I despise steak,but do love the Especial Little Mexico. Any takers? Last year wasn't considered the strongest year the state had seen no doubt,and I heard alot of folk say that the road to the Final 4 wasn't too rough (wasn't shocked to see Appy there) I didn't talk about "competing". I talked about hoisting the hardware

I never once said PV nor Appy would win state, nothing of the sort.
but I do find it funny that Appy made the Final Four last year, but suddenly they have no shot at winning up-state.
Got your PM CVC, but it said your box was full and I couldn't reply. But no, not surprised the least bit now that I know who the players from our side were, both trouble from day one IMO.
the Final Four is not just region D
its a freaking great accomplishment to make the Final Four, much less win the Region.
i dont understand why its out of the realm of possiblity that Appalachia could get really hot at the end of the year, and make a lotta noise upstate.
great defense and ball control can win big ballgames.
you dont have to run 5 guys over 6'3 who can jump outta the building to win ballgames
