"I think their biggest strength is our team chemistry. I think our guys believe in each other and they stand firm with each other. Defensively I think we put a lot of emphasis on that. They look for each other offensively. They're unselfish, they just play for each other and that's probably our biggest strength," said Cavaliers head basketball coach Cameron Shepherd.

Tip time is 7 p.m. from Lynchburg College Tuesday night. Forest defeated the Eagles 61-54 in overtime for the Region title on February 22nd.

The Northside, Cave Spring and Radford boys, along with the Carroll County, Pulaski County, Parry McCluer and Lord Botetourt girls are all still alive in the hunt for state titles.
