Guest BEAVERTAIL Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Logan beats Weir this morining... here is the recap from matronews... Third-seed Logan used a strong second half to come from behind and defeat sixth-seeded Weir 66-46 in the first game of the 95th state tournament in Charleston. The Wildcats used a 25-0 run to end the game and claim the victory. Trailing 31-26 at the beginning of the third quarter, Logan outscored Weir 6-2 in the first 90 seconds, cutting the lead to 33-32 and forcing a Red Riders timeout. Logan's shooting improved and the Wildcats press began to give Weir trouble late in the third quarter. The Weir lead was cut to a single point, 46-45 and the end of the third. Logan's Brett Sorrell opened the 4th quarter on fire, hitting two long jumpers, putting the Wildcats in the lead for the first time, 51-46 with 6:33 to play, while Weir went stone cold, failing to score in the entire 4th quarter while Logan put up 21 points. Both teams quickly adjusted to the Civic Center surroundings scoring a combined 38 points in the opening 8 minutes of play. Three foul shots by Weir's Shawn Burns with 5:01 left in the second built the Red Riders lead to 29-18. But Logan answered with an 8-0 run to draw close at the half. Coach Mark Hatcher's Wildcats were lead in scoring by center Jonathon Bevins 2, and Sorrell 13 with Weir's Burns hitting for 14 in a losing effort. The Wildcats will play the winner of Wyoming East and Grafton in Friday's semifinals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Wyoming East game overview http://www.wvmetronews.com/wvstatetournament/basketball/scorecard.cfm?gameID=27 The second-seed Wyoming East Warriors had two players with 20 plus points as the Warriors beat the seventh-seed Grafton Bearcats 70-58. Jesse Lesters offense had no problems getting started as the Wyoming East Warriors scored 29 points in the first quarter. Grafton stayed right with the Warriors in scoring ending the first quarter with down 29-21 to Wyoming East.

Cory Willard and Gentry Shrewsbury combined to score 27 of 40 points for the Warriors.

Johns hit a jumper with 4:33 left in the fourth quarter to put Grafton within 6 points. That was the closest the Bearcats would get to the lead late in the game.

hokie07 11 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 A TSP source is saying that Ravenswood's star player, Dusty Mullins, was suspended from school for 5 days and won't be able to participate in the tournament. Excellent news for the Beavers should they advance tonight vs. Oak Hill... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Ravenswood has 6 3-pointers in the first half, which is the difference in the game. If they continue hitting those they'll be tough to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
