deuceswild 15 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Didn't they lose to Chilhowie? Shouldn't that mean everyone can challenge Abingdon this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurricaneWarning 212 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 That is true, I about forgot about that game. Of course, the entire SWD is weak this year. I guess anyone could step up and win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamdagger 10 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) The Chilhowie game means absolutely nothing to us (not to mention it was in a tournament and will not affect the outcome or seeding come the region tournament). Good teams have off nights. Can anyone argue that top ranked teams such as Duke, UNC, Oklahoma, Texas, Syracuse, etc. are no longer good teams and can be "challenged by anyone now" because they each lost to a bad team?? Didn't think so. Also, one game cannot be used as a guage to determine how successfully that team will perform and execute against another. We play different styles, run different offenses and defenses, and face the same every night. Marion speak for yourself, most of the teams in the district have improved from last year,Abingdon, Tazewell, and Graham in particular. You're making yourself look worse criticizing the district as being weak, yet being the only team in that district without a win. We look forward to welcoming you to Abingdon next friday.

Of course if you guys would have beaten Chilhowie then I`m sure it would have meant something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every game counts. Toward your record and toward your confidence. Until Abingdon realizes that, their claims of dominance and competitiveness will continue to be laughable.

Waspballer 10 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Abingdon will dominate everyone within the district...end of story  Have you seen everyone in the district play? If not, how do you know they will dominate? I have no idea on who will win this district because I haven't seen all teams play. I have heard that Graham has a pretty good team along with Abingdon. I'm interested in seeing how this season turns out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widespread_Panic 197 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 That wouldn't say much about the SWD if Abingdon does dominate. Abingdon wouldn't finish in the top three in the CMD. They've already lost twice to Va. High, Lebanon would beat them, and Gate City should beat them pretty handily tomorrow night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loujustice 10 Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Abingdon played a great game last night. They were only down 1 point going in to the 4th quarter and if a few buckets had gone in, they had a great chance to pull off the win! I agree, they showed a lot of strength and proved they can play with great teams! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
