I believe this FCT group is pretty much the same team that lost in close regional championship games the last two years, except they are now seniors. And the teams that beat them went on to finish 2nd and 3rd at state with their only defeats coming to Bishop Ryan in each tourney. FCT lost their only game of the year in their first or second game of the season in overtime against a strong Richland team. I heard that FCT played the game without their 6'3" girls in that game. I don't know this for certain, it is what I heard.
That being said, I think North Star got a horrible draw and think they will more than likely fall in the opening round. I have heard so many good things about Watford City, I think they are likely the favorites.

Has FCT played any top 10 teams?

Oh, and what do you base that on?

Two of their best wins actually come from MN games (47-40 over 24-2 #10 Wheaton/HN (A) at home; 56-46 over 17-6 Breckenridge (AA) on a neutral court)

She played in that game, just was on the bench in foul trouble for a good part of it. If I remember correctly, she might have been hobbled at times as well, but I know she fouled out of that game. I believe Burns, and possibly one other starter fouled out as well.

Can someone provide the most likely starters for each team?
Of course I can predict on my own 2 or 3 for each team with no problem , but harder to look at stats and know who is the 4th and or 5th starter, Thanks in advance
