Just got home from the Madison County/ RE Lee game. Me and a group of East Rock folks made the trip. Glad we did. Lee has incredible size and talent. However, they are the most undisciplined, poorly coached team I have seen in a while. Go at them hard and they wilt. Madison plays hard on both ends of the court but there is no way they should have been able to overcome the size and athleticism of Lee...except they did. Lee jumped out to a 16-3 lead and acted like the game was over. Madison took their best shot and just kept coming at Lee. Late in the game, with the results in the balance, Lee's big men were more interested in making obscene gestures to the very large Madison crowd than they
I think GC has more ability/athleticism than Madison. They should be able to irritate and aggravate Lee into making stupid plays/actions. Lee's coach is a jackass who was applauding one of his players for yelling, 3 times no less, "F#$% You" to the crowd. Then when they lost, Lee players and coaches left the floor and basically refused to come out to accept the runner up trophy. Finally, one of the assistants and a bench player came out, took their trophy, flipped off the crowd and left. I have no respect for the staff at all. ER lost 2 times to Lee and they (Lee) acted even worse when they won!
As a Bearcat, I find this hard to say...I hope Gate City beats the crap out of Lee. Go get 'em Blue Devils. Here's hoping the Leemen's season end on a 2 game loosing streak!
I can't stand this kind of a program, a bunch of thugs on the basketball court with a coach that supports it. I hope GC pounds them through the hardwood flooring, good luck to all the SWVA teams , lets show what the boys and girls from the mountains can do.
Wow, can't believe somebody gonna sit a knock the other players, tell me how the hell is anybody supposed to get evolved in a game when one kid is taking every shot. Say he carried you, well when nobody else has a chance its hard to get into any kind of a groove. DR sounds like they played as a team and won as a team.
What is the pitch count going down to, i thought where is was set at was fine, what the heck are they going to now?
I pitched every other game in highschool and through the whole game and have no clue what my pitch count got up to and I never remember having arm troubles, its all about warming up correctly and getting the proper treatment after a game. But ofcourse im no doctor and was ok with a pitch count as long as it isnt ridiculous.
The Castlewood boys haven't played Central yet but they do play each other in the first round of the Wise Tipoff. I do think the Cwood girls played Central though.
Very few are coming to watch all the games and then pay out the ying yang for a bottle of water and a dog. Its to much , especially when you have to pay for a family of three or four and times that by three days and it equals to much.
Gotta be the one in Wise this year. Some quality teams in that one. Mt. Mission, George Wythe, Richlands, Bell Co., KY, Ridgeview, Honaker, Eastside, Lebanon, Union, Central, Castlewood, and Burton.
Been trying to find a complete listing of all the teams in this tournament, no luck so far. Is there a site I can see all the teams playing?
Thats a wake-up call to the rest of the Cumberland, ive been hearing people say RC was gonna be the sleeper team in the district and this sure makes it look that away. Even if Lee is down they went to OT with ES and got beat by 12 to the Cove so it's gonna be interesting.
Dick Vitale Casano graduated but I still think Eastside will be very tough but I believe people are counting Cwood out this year to win the district with JIB and Eastside at the top and they will be but I think its a three way race with Cwood possibly stealing this thing.
Like I said the coach texted the team Sat morning and told who they was playing, the coach. Not me, not max preps the coach, then I said I looked around and seen where max preps had the same thing. So what the hell is the deal?
I get it their wrong alot, I said I looked at Max Preps , I seen all the mistakes , I dont know where the coach got his info. Im sure the coach has a few sources besides Max Preps.
seen? rartngs are tied with 1 riders point game today
didnt know there was still points out there but the Cwood coach texted the team this morning with that info and then I seen on Max Preps they already had Cwood at Chilhowie, so th hats what I seen but maybe everybody just figured it would go that way
Im rooting for Hurley to go all the way, if its not Cwood. But the problem I seen was and really its more of a question, if somebody can stop the run game can Hurley throw. When they played Cwood there was no need to throw because Cwood couldn't stop the run but from what little I seen in the pass game in looked kinda weak. I hope im wrong and they have a good pass game because as the competition gets tougher and somebody is able to stop that run you better have a little on the pass to open things back up. Like I said I only seen the one game, does Hurley have a pass game?
I knew it was a inside job, for one thing Cwood people have never referred to ourselves as Castlewoodville, they tried to hard making it look like Cwood kids. No names has been released but it was several of the TS coaching staff.
