GoBearsGo 142 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Milo may be the smartest guy on this board! Lol.. Plain and simple, Richlands took it to us. We were out coached and out hustled. Richlands exposed our weakness staying in a zone D, Union has a tendancy to stand around on offense and they knew it. On D, we had no answer. Good game by Richlands and good luck moving forward.

IF Richlands and Gate City hook it up, two possibilities both lose, both win, the game will then turn into Region 2 A West Championship Game at UVA Wise on Saturday NOT at James River....​If Richlands meets Dan River or Gate City meets Chatham in 1-2 or 3-4 consolation game The game will be 3rd place consolation game tip at 4 at James River, Championship 1-2 Game, will be at 6 at James River high school​Moving on Friday March 3rd will have all 8 teams left 4 from 2 A West and 4 from 2 A East playing at the Convention Center at James Madison University.... (Address and all on VHSL Website)​Starting at 2:15-7:45 that evening....​2AW1 vs 2AE4​2AW2 vs 2 AE3​2AE1 vs 2 AW4​2AE2 vs 2 AW3​Semis will be at James Madison. Higher Seed will be home white​Finals will be March the 9th at Siegel Center VCU​That will have to be validated on all involved parties tomorrow, Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Congrats Richlands. Mitchell picking up his 4th foul doomed us. I won't comment on anything else other than congrats Richlands and good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 I was just surprised this game didnt come down to 2 points or OT given their football history. Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great City 210 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 7 fouls for the entire game? Impressive. GC was called for 7 fouls during the first 10 minutes of the game............at home. Refs must not have gotten the memo. The U Bear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbgfan 856 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 Listing fouls I have for the Bears which agrees with the Bristol Herald of 15 for game. This is to clarify not to start any controversy. Back -- 4 Garrison -- 1 Jenkins -- 5 Mitchell -- 4 Sharitt -- 1 In the first half the Bears scored 2 points from the foul line In the second half the Bears scored 2 points from the foul line The Blues did have 7 fouls for the game. In the first half the Blues scored 4 points from the foul line In the second half the Blues scored 7 points from the foul line So that is a net of 7 plus points for the Blues in the game from the foul line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The U Bear 59 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 its not why the game was won or lost but wes was mugged down low all night and there was 7 total fouls called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
local_insight 146 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 Overall the game was called pretty well. I really only saw one obvious foul that wasn't called. It was when #3 was driving to the basket and he got hammered. Not sure how that call was missed but other than that Union just got frustrated by not being able to guard Ball and started hacking. The term being mugged all night might be a little over kill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
