In response to 'Bluechips' comments: "I got a kick out of the 2A comment. Unfortunately thats the way Washington fans really think about 1A and 2A. They snub their noses at smaller teams while having a fit when 4A thinks they are the best. The Zellers have all had excellent careers but none were probably deserving of the Mr. Basketball award."
I look forward to watching Barr-Reeve for the next 5 years or so. Their most recent 7th and 8th grade boy's teams dominated the southern half of the state and maybe statewide? I know the 7th grade team won a big tournament in Carmel but I don't know who all of the participants were. In all aspects of a basketball game, they play as a team; everyone has a role, tight defense, no prima donnas, humble, and not flashy. When those 2 teams finally combine as freshman and sophomores, I look for BR to win at least 2 and maybe 3 state titles. I can probably safely speculate that WHS will be one of those teams that get beat by them. As a WHS fan and alumni, it won’t be anything to be proud of but it won’t be anything to be ashamed of either. I will attend many of their games and will follow them whole-heartedly through the tournaments.
