NC & SC Polls: Impact & NCHSBCA/BA (Merged Thread)

ncbbfan why are talking trash about west forsyth??? they are 4-1 this year. they did beat north forsyth. why are they not mentioned of the polls??? who knows, and who cares. they were not mentioned last year until after the playoffs started with only 2 regular season losses. after losing the state championship games to a very strong fuquay they were ranked 3rd. i don't know what they have done to be in the doghouse??? but hey life goes on. i still do not understand why you are talking trash about them????????

 

Catamount, I'm not talking trash ... but I was making a point!

It seems like every time a team in the western part of the state isn't mentioned in the polls, they attribute it to the fact that they didn't have anyone go to the "Impact" showcases and pay them enough money.

I spoke to Braves earlier about this ... South Meck is #2 and they only had 1 player at Impact last year. North Meck is #9 and they didn't have anyone there. The comment that had been made was by Homerun4:

That's what I was focusing on, not the omission of them from the polls.

None of us have seen enough of the teams inside the state to be able to talk intelligently about rankings. How often have you seen Hoggard? Rose? Garner? Fuquay? West Henderson? Tuscola? ... probably the same as me NONE.

I've never seen a poll that I agree with completely. But the cut on the people providing the poll was too easy a target for my native sense of sarcasm. I couldn't resist myself.

 

I can see the egg on his face now!!!!! You know, using Brave's logic, Providence should have moved UP in the polls after that loss!!!

obtw: You guys have NM too high We actual have a core course required of all athletes ... Braves provided the material for the curiculum ... it's called "Master Bagging" or Sand Bagging IV. It is a senior, college level course.

 

There's your answer Braves ... why Providence isn't on the poll ... Impact has you guys in a sweep of the SW4A!!!!!!! They must have you guys and MP both beating Providence twice!!!!!

Since that's settled, you don't have to play the games!!!! (or do you????) I'm sure that Prov will just let "ole Braves" call in the score he wants!!!!!

(and they have NM ranked too high)

Seriously Braves, Providence has been struggling to score runs so far this season. Their last 3 games have been 2-0 Butler, 2-1 Waddell and 2-5 Randleman. They are going to need more than 2 runs per game this season in the SW4A... there are too many teams (Olympic, Waddell, MP, SM, EM) who are going to push some runs over the plate. Knowing their history, I'm sure you feel like they will get the bats going, but they haven't yet. Until they can start plating more runs, they are very vulnerable.

 

Polls...

Many folks haven't heard about this team yet, because they've only played 3 games, but Northwest Cabarrus is definitely one of the top 10 "3A" teams in the state, they are awful strong. In fact, they have one of the state's best pitchers (Lucas Dalton) and a very strong group of senior leadership at the key positions. They are 3-0 and just defeated East Rowan 4-1 in the NPC opener.

I noticed West Rowan and Mooresville both received votes in the Coaches Poll, but trust me when I say that Northwest Cabarrus will have a very good year. The NPC is shaping up to have some very good 3A teams once again this spring, even with East Rowan in a rebuilding year...

 

NCBballfan, my question for you is why do you insist on keeping bringing up the fact that NM is overrated....It is fine that you posted your opinion once but u don't have to post it everytime you make a reply.. In my opinion they have done the job so far making way for them to be in that poll no matter what their age is.....I mean i guess u forgot about the South Meck game and Hopewell game. I also guess you think that it was a fluke when the #9 team NM hit Cruse up for four runs and their sophmore pitchers shut down the senior filled line up to only 3 runs. I mean until they show different they should be in that poll and that is the bottom line..

 

If they keep getting ranked, how are they going to sneak up on other teams!!!



Seriously, they've done well... if you read ALL of my posts, you'll find out I'm a NM supporter and fan. I guess I should have used the little Smilies that showed my "tongue in cheek".

:anon:

 

Well sneaking up on people isn't goin to be possible if they keep winning. Many people look at records and they are undeated, meaning many people have probably already heard about them. So give credit where credit is due that is all I ask and i yes i do know you are a supporter...

 

Prepster
