Melrose falters with a team total 28 point performance. Is a coaching change in the makings. Ridgeway goes further than last years super stacked team. Sheffield and Mitchell run Division AA from the south side of town. Manassas and Trezevant come up short in Regionals.

3. Whitehaven (6-4)
4.  White Station (6-4)
5. Memphis Central  (3-7) 
6. Memphis East (3-7) 
 
Area News 1-19-13:   District Action:  Dyer County lasted only one week at Number 1 in Hoopers Top Ten after a disappointing loss to Munford who was led by UTC signee Jonathan Stark triple double performance with 28 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists in a super strong outing.  Local paper still had Southwind number 1 earlier this week and raved about the Jaguars only losses were against nationally ranked teams  but they lose to Ridgeway. It's a numbers game compadres. You have to tip your hats for a day to the Golden Wildcats for a big boy win and talk about you needed it now.
 
Area News 1-18-13:             District Action: Memphis Melrose younger group led by sophomore Marlon Hunter at 26 points stepped up big time with a double digit win over Whitehaven.  Hamilton is growing up quick also with a close win on the road over White Station. with Dedric Lawson dropping 41 points! The16-AAA has a four way tie with Hamilton, Melrose, Whitehaven, and White Station all 3-2.
 
Area News 1-17 -13:               Local News: Memphis Melrose Jemerio Jones out for the season with an knee injury. Wildcats are cursed with major knee injuries to two of their top stars in Markel Crawford (Memphis) and junior Jemerio Jones respectively Crawford played in the Memphis East game last week which ruffled some of the Tigers accordingly. Also while we are talking about the  Tigers, all their 2013 recruits have made the cut for McDonalds All American Game.  
 
Area News 1-16-13:             District Action: Memphis Melrose gets demolished by White Station 81-54 and their 5 year run dominating 16-AAA might be coming to an end. Their is still time but with Jemerio Jones & Markell Crawford of Melrose on the injured list hinders their opportunities. After a strong start Memphis Central with that 2 point loss to Whitehaven two weeks set the stage for the descent and fast. Sheffield  and Mitchell on course for deciding 16-AA with Trezevant and Manassas on the other side. The same for  Ridgeway and Southwind in 15-AAA. BTW and Westwood in Division A will meet in city championship accordingly.
 
Area News 1-13-13:               Penny Hardaway Hoop Fest: Memphis teams did horrible this year against national teams going 1-5. Hoopers Top Ten will have a new team and for the first time this year at the Number 1 slot Dyer County and how long will the Choctaws hold that spot after only losing 1 game so far this year and yeah maybe not against the best teams but they are winning. I know Southwind only 4 losses have been to nationally ranked teams but will that translate into postseason advancement, Bottomline! On the other hand will not playing a tough schedule hinder, well all questions will be answered in less than 4 weeks. Oh yeah when you lose what happens you usually drop and depends on to who and how bad, you still drop not stay the same or even move up, you still lost.  Whitehaven lost by 2 to CBHS but soundly defeated White Station earlier in the week respectively. 
 
Area News 1-09-13:              Penny Hardaway Hoop Fest:   Hoopers Top Ten Number 6 CBHS upends Whitehaven 57-52 and the Purple Wave are for real compadres.
 
Area News 1-09-13:                     On Your Mind: That's a good line, Lol. I get a lot of flack for not having certain teams ranked as high. Perfect example Southwind lost two games out of town but are still Number 1 in local newspaper rankings. Also I know the teams they lost to were nationally ranked in national polls in the Top Ten. That's great like the movie Talladega Nights where Will Ferrell says "if your not first you came last". Another one is Melrose losing to two Hoopers Top Ten members in the same week but still ranked highly in same publication and one of the teams Sheffield never in preseason polls respectively. Tell that to the NCAA selection committee, don't whine just go out their and take care of business. Nothing to both ball clubs mentioned but therefore see you in TSSAA State in Murfreesboro, not just a sub state appearance thereof.
