45th Carrollton Invitational preview

The 45th Carrollton invitational will get underway with a full day of games on Monday 1/21. Our crazy weather pattern caused the games to be delayed from the originally planned Saturday start date. The following is a list of the games and the seeds, planned for Monday: 9:30 -- Jacksonville Routt (1) vs Father McGivney (9). 11:00 --Metro East Lutheran (8( vs Granite City (16) 12:30-- Alton Marquette (4) vs North Greene (12) 2:00 Lebanon (5) vs Nokomis (13) 3:30-- Quincy Notre Dame (2) vs Calhoun (10) 5:00-- West Central (7) vs Roxana (15) 6:30-- Jerseyville (3) vs Greenfield(11) 8:00 -- Carrollton (6) vs Mascoutah (14) &nbsp; There will be some very good match ups to see in this tourney. In the second round the 4 vs 5 of Alton Marquette vs Lebanon should be a very good game. In the semi finals the winner of that game will have to face the size of Routt which will be tough. On the other side of the bracket the Jerseyville vs QND match up with be a good one to see. The finals will be exciting. Through the consolation side of the bracket you will most likely see Calhoun and Father McGivney in the finals, which should be exciting. All around it looks like a great tournament. Some of the top players involved are the following: <ul> <li><strong>Bella McCartney </strong>2020 Forward Routt Catholic</li> <li><strong>Katie Abell</strong> 2019 Post Routt Catholic</li> <li><strong>Madison Webb </strong>202 Forward Father McGivney</li> <li><strong>Anna McKee </strong>2021 Guard Father McGivney</li> <li><strong>Adrenna Snipes </strong>2022 Guard Alton Marquette</li> <li><strong>Emily Reinneck </strong>Guard 2019 Lebanon</li> <li><strong>Abagail Reinneck</strong> Wing 2019 Lebanon</li> <li><strong>Sophie Lorton </strong>Guard 2019 Calhoun</li> <li><strong>Hannah Krumwiede </strong>Guard 2019 Carrollton</li> <li><strong>Clare Breden </strong>Guard 2021 Jerseyville</li> <li><strong>Abby Manns </strong>Guard 2020 Jerseyville</li> <li><strong>Annika Kaufmann </strong>Wing 2019 West Central</li> <li><strong>Sami Kasting </strong>Guard 2019 Metro East Lutheran</li> <li><strong>Sydney Hummert </strong>Forward 2020 QND</li> </ul> We should see some very high scoring games from the girls on this list. There are some excellent college prospects including the class of 2019 kids that to my knowledge are all still uncommitted. You have strong post players, lead guards and wings that can defend and score. College coaches need to be following this tournament. &nbsp;
