The Locker Room: Prep boys basketball tourney picks to click: February 2008 Archives

Prep boys basketball tourney picks to click: February 2008 Archives

Truth be told, the eyes in The Locker Room could see Mundelein over Warren and Waukegan over Lake Forest coming. It wasn’t the eyes that failed, it was the heart. Didn’t have the ticker to pick the underdogs. As a result, The Locker Room picks are 9-4 this tourney season with five tough ones to call on Friday night.

OK. Tell the truth. Who in The Locker Room saw Lake Zurich smokin' defending sectional champion Stevenson by 15 points in a regional semfiinal? That game ruined an otherwise perfect night of picks. Tuesday: 7-1 ... 10-2 overall so far this tournament. As for tonight ...

After going 4-1 in picking Monday night’s prep boys basketball games in the IHSA Class 3A and 4A tournaments, The Locker Room talk is that there’s no excuse for not being perfect tonight.

Which area prep boys basketball teams will live to play another day in the IHSA Class 3A and Class 4A regional tournaments, and which schools can schedule indoor baseball practice in the school gym on Tuesday?
