Tip-Off Preview

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are few games to circle on you calendar as the season is set to tip off soon. Some of these games are game one and some of these will be with one game under their belt. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Owyhee vs. Eagle</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While Owyhee is a big time favorie and rightfully so there are a few teams that can pose some trouble for The Storm. Eagle has a solid line up and a PG that can give Owyhee some trouble. [player_tooltip player_id='1057045' first='Russell' last='Gibson'] is not only a solid PG that can get the tempo going but he can control the pace. What also makes him dangerous is that he can shoot the rock. The biggest issue for Eagle will be what they decide to do defensively on [player_tooltip player_id='1568017' first='Liam' last='Campbell']. Not ony does he have size but he can get by bigger defenders and if you put a little guy on him he will abuse him in aspects pf the game. Look for a player like [player_tooltip player_id='1108098' first='Titus' last='Bailey'] to step up. Big time game that will set the tone this year over in Idaho. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>Hillcrest vs. Timpview (UT)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Great game for Hillcrest as they head out of state to get some high quality run. Timpview opened up the season with a solid win. Hillcrest might come in a bit sloppy as this will be their first game of the year and Timpview will have a few under their belt. Timpview has a bigger guard that can step out and also post up that could cause the smaller Hillcrest some issues. One thing is for sure and that is that Timpview has no answer for [player_tooltip player_id='1568018' first='Isaac' last='Davis']. It will be interesting t see what Hillcrest does to get him more looks and not just shoot from the outside. Really think that Hillcrest can punish them inside and out as they do have some guys that can shoot like [player_tooltip player_id='1378465' first='Ike' last='Sutton'] and Titan Larsen.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Pocatello vs. Idaho Falls</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is going to be a game of who will be able to get three-ball off. Pocatello can really shoot the ball and they will have a go to player in [player_tooltip player_id='1378464' first='Julian' last='Bowie'] who can absolutely score the ball. Look for Julian to be more on the ball which can cause some matchup problems because Julian is really good in the post. [player_tooltip player_id='1646253' first='Neil' last='McCarthy'] is a player to watch for Idaho Falls as they look to bounce back froma tough season a year ago. [player_tooltip player_id='1646254' first='Cooper' last='Craig'] can be a difference maker for IFHS.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
