    Re: Region D Boys Basketball Top 5 Going Into Holiday Tourna

    Would think probably Lebanon, Haysi, Honaker, and Castlewood each could fit into the 5th or so spot. Lebanon dropped their opener to Abingdon and the only other was a 7 point loss to Elizabethton. They beat Castlewood in the tournament at Va High by 23. Haysi with 2 losses also, one coming to Mt. Zion (NC) and a 1 point loss in overtime to Twin Springs. Should be a bit more from Burton this week with a little better comp.

    1) Gate City - D2 Region D winners / team to beat
    2) Hurley - D1 Region D winners / Cooper brothers play with heart and are fly for white guys
    3) Va High - lost to Hurley / still trying to mesh
    4) Lebanon - sleepers of all sleepers
    5) Twin Springs - good right now but havent played anyone worth playing /overrated / will get killed by Hurley in the playoffs

    I agree with this with Castlewood a close 6th. Definitely haven't played that well so far, but has a load of talent.

    If both Hurley and Gate City lose their opening round games in the Arby's, they will meet Thursday morning at 9am. Should be a good matchup, although I see Gate City winning that one.

    The thing about Castlewood is that they have a load of talent, but they haven't played together long at all. We might not see them at their full strength until way down the road, if we see it all. Depends a lot on how they react to these losses in games they should win, etc. They looked absolutely lost when I saw them. Somebody needs to step up be the man on that team.

    Seen the Lebanon and Burton game the other night. I hope that Lebanon had an off night because they looked horrible. I still dont see how they beat Castlewood by the margin they did, but then again Honaker beat Castlewood and Honaker was played well by Rye Cove for three quarters

    Castlewood simply isn't a good team right now. They have a lot of great parts, they just aren't meshing right now.
