    Josh,
    Do you think about the Beacon Girls? They will be an "A" power, do you think they could play with MV?

  2. Josh Thomson

    statesman…While I do think Beacon could play with MV, I think MV would win. The Knights have too much — too much depth, too much speed, and too much athleticism.

    Now, that's not to fault Beacon. A lot of teams would have the same problem against MV.

    Josh, I'm a Beacon fan and I wouldn't disagree with anything you said. Have you been able to see Beacon play yet this season? Also, can I expect to see you at Ossining on the 17th?
    Oh one more thing… new state rankings came out – State Rankings

    Thanks Juice. They had updated the boys yesterday, but not the girls.

    I saw Beacon against Lakeland early this season. I'm not covering the game against Ossining because of TV, but I may try to swing by for the first half.

    I'll be at the game most likely, maybe I could call it in after the final horn sounds. I'll let you know.
