Sectional 54 1A Preview & Prediction:
Rossville is the favorite just ahead of Frontier. I think it will be a rematch between the two, Rossville won on 12/12 58-53. Another close battle but the Hornets get the victory.
Sectional 50 1A Preview & Prediction:
Loaded with area teams. I think any 4 teams I have in the semis could take the crown, but as of late West Central is the hottest team and recently beat Demotte Christian. A game the Knights had large leads in the 2nd half.
Sectional 37 2A Preview & Prediction:
Pretty wide open schedule, anything can happen. Seeger is the favorite by record. Be on the look for a below .500 team to pull through.
Sectional 34 2A Preview & Prediction:
3 headed race Bremen, Jimtown, and Winamac and the draw set up for a great Sectional championship. Winamac vs Jimtown in the semis is a toss up, I give the edge to Jimtown based off of recent games. In the end Bremen wins it all.
Sectional 23 3A Preview & Prediction:
West Lafayette is a clear favorite here. Twin Lakes is my dark house, they have been playing better as of late under 38th year coach Kent Adams. In the end WL is just too talented.
Sectional 18 3A Preview & Prediction:
This is one that anyone could take. I’ll narrow it down to Illiana, Hanover Central, and River Forest. I think Hanover’s size and speed is an advantage and they move on to Regionals.

Area games tonight 2/20:
2A #13 Winamac (17-3) vs Pioneer 6-13); I see the Warriors bouncing back from their unforeseen loss to Delphi.
Hebron (11-7) vs Boone Grove (10-9); the dynamic duo of Socci and Wynsma will be too much for the Wolves, Hebron wins by 10+
Kankakee Valley (5-13) vs Hanover Central (8-11); HC’s speed is too much for the Kougars, Wildcats extend lead late
Rensselaer (2-19) vs Whiting (2-18); someone will get there 3rd win of the season to hopefully gain some momentum for Sectionals; Bombers win in a gritty battle
Twin Lakes (8-12) vs Tipton (5-13); contest for 7th or 8th place in the Hoosier Conference, Devils win by a slim margin
Tri County (10-9) vs Faith Christian (8-11); gonna be a good MWC battle, give me the Cavs
