Varsity Kansas - The Blog

Check out a full complement of game coverage in Wednesday’s paper. I’m not sure if Kirk’s glad I’m back, since I scheduled a full eight games of coverage tonight. Then again, is it my fault that there’s some outstanding games tonight? Heck no!

In the City League, I’m checking out Goddard at Carroll, because I want to see this Goddard girls team, winners of the Free State tournament, take on Carroll, which got handled by Andover Central in the finals of the Newton tournament.

East at Northwest boys is intriguing because it’s East, and Northwest is always dangerous.

Heights at South has promise for boys and girls. Girls might not be as interesting as the first time the teams met, when it was a nail-biter. I did think South would be more dominant with the addition of Christine Elliott, but she will cause problems for Heights. On the boys end, Heights won the season opener by 12, but  South has had quite a stretch since then, only losing to Southeast.

The undefeated Andover boys travel to Andale, which is on its own winning streak. This game precedes Friday’s Andover at Andover Central game.

Then there’s the Rose Hill at Andover Central girls game, with Andover Central ranked second overall and Rose Hill at 12-1. Wow. What a matchup.

Can’t beat Wichita Trinity vs. Belle Plaine boys, either. Trinity’s lone loss was to Belle Plaine to start the season. And these teams are averaging 66-plus points each.

Anyone have any picks for these games?

I’ll try to blog after deadline tonight, so come on back.
