2013 R3 5A Final 4

CLEAR SPRINGS BROOKE MC CARTY

This is what I’ve been waiting on all season and to be honest with you when you look at my picks for the preseason, I’m on point. #2 Clear Springs knocked off #1 Manvel three times and all could have gone either way, so I knew one of them would knock the other out in order to get to the R3 F4, you should have known too if you’ve been following me from the start of the season. #3 Dekaney was my choice as the best area team from R2 and they have made it back to the F4.

 #4 North Shore and #6 Cy Ranch could have easily been here as well, however injuries to key players hurt them both in major ways. That may have opened the door for #5 Pearland to make their first F4, who knows, the game is played on the court. How about #7 Bellaire making it back after a couple of seasons? When you have a player like AJ Alix, anything can happen and her supporting cast is coming up huge which will be vital in tomorrow’s match-up against Clear Springs in what should be a battle as two of the country’s top point guards face off against each other. Brooke McCarty has a high octane supporting cast of her own with Chargers who lost earlier this season to the Cardinals

SEVEN LAKES CHRISTEN INMAN

Also making their first F4 is my preseason #8 Seven Lakes and even though I love saying I told you so, #9 Cy Woods was close to being here instead of the Spartans. What I do know is Christen Inman is as close to unstoppable as I’ve seen and she joins an elite crew of players who can simply take over games, this comes as no surprise as I saw her doing incredible things before she hit high school and I assured her dad she would be a Top 100 player on the national side. Their game against Pearland can go either way, just like the Bellaire Clear Springs and whoever comes out on the top side will probably have the edge to make it to Austin which means absolutely nothing as Spring and Elsik have proven that in a game playoff, anything can happen
