Lake Taylor 53 Northside 51

I think Northside guards are better than Spotswoods. Big game experience for Northside sees them through as they pull away.

I don’t think Tunstall has seen the size and defense Western will throw at them.

Lake Taylor cruises. Monroe squeaks one out.

Northside guards too much for Western down stretch. Lake Taylor plays with food before eating in Final 4.

LT barely over Northside in final. I think guards are much improved for LT and that coupled with bigs is a tough combo.

Skyline would never have beaten Lake Taylor last year if their bigs had not got into foul trouble early and often. They are hard to stop when both on court for long periods of time.
