Has to be Bloomington North. Though one of their girls blew her ACL in Volleyball this past week or so. That might hurt their chances.

Whitney Thomas did have ACL surgery late this summer sometime and is expected to return later this fall. We all wish her a speedy recovery as she is a great player, and not only that, just a great kid.

I am sure as competitive as she is, she will be ready. Injuries have been hard this summer with Whitney and I know CC from Perry who still isn't back to 100%. So, back to the question now...top ten 4A teams? In no particular order: Perry Warsaw Mooresville Bloomington North North Central Merriville Valpo Jefferesonville HSE I know there is another team from way up north. Is it East Central or Gary Westside? Sorry I can't remember. How about some other 4A opinions! Come on now, I "know" they are out there!

Some great picks there! One thing is for sure...there is NO one team that seems to have it hands down... 3A looks to be the same as well..... I know that Perry beat Jeffersonville, North Central this summer...and they (perry)...didn't have all of their players... They lost to BN in double overtime...sudden death in the Mooresville league...and again..they were missing CC and I believe one other player. But, without much...well.....no player 6 foot....Perry is going to have it rough. We will have some depth though...so hopefully that will help!

Hey,Coachie. Tell those coaches to get on the ball over there(PM). ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) CC needs some work on those leg "muscles". The ankle is pretty sound. Strap her down to the leg press bench 3 or 4 times per week. ![>:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/angry.png) She's looking good. ;D Just a "wittle" out of shape. ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png)

Just curious how Huntington North is ranked almost the entire season last year. Only loses one starter and nobody gives them a mention for a top 10 this year.
Seems incompitent to me.

Just a quick response to CoachBuzzy about Huntington North. I think HN has a nice team, but the one player you lost was in my opinion the backbone of the team. Laura Knecht was the most consistant and hard working player on the team from what I saw last year, and replacing that will be tough.
I would say the the Hawkins girl has a shot at being a tremendous player, but in the games I saw her play, she doesn't seem to play hard all the time, only when she feels like it. The post player is tough, I think her name is Hehn or something, she is strong plays hard and can score on the inside.
The real question outside of losing Knecht, is the guard play is suspect. No real ball handlers, and not much quickness. That was what hurt them last year, and looks to be the weak spot again this year. If they find a strong ball handling guard they could be tough.
With all that being said, they are still a good team, I would say even in the top 20, I think there is another poll floating around on here, that has them ranked by yours truely in the top ten.
But you asked why, and I don't think it is being incompetent, just not sure about the team.
After all that, my top ten in no order:
HSE North Central Warsaw E. Chic. Central Gary West Jeffersonville Mooresville Bloomington North Merrilville Pike

Yes...they are working on CC. Hopefully...she will be ready to go. Perry will have some depth going for them this year. Won't be tall...but they may some noise...Good Luck Falcons! Also....good luck Falcon Cross Country team!
