Huntingdon hasn't figured out that you don't just hire someone to coach basketball you hire a basketball coach. Always will be 4th in line behind football baseball and softball. Lowery is just drawing a check. Parents and fans have been disgusted with him for years. 2 juniors quit this year because of how he treats the girls. Had to beg girls to come to an open tryout a couple weeks ago to have enough to have a quality practice. Rumor is this is his last year after his star senior point guard graduates. We can only hope and pray he takes his little boy and crazy wife with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huntingdon hasn't figured out that you don't just hire someone to coach basketball you hire a basketball coach. The problem with hiring “ a basketball coach” is that there just aren’t that many of them out there. And if they are any, they don’t stick around very long. They move on to bigger and better things to make more money. West TN HS girls basketball isn’t the SEC and don’t have endless dollars to pay. Not many people standing in line to get the meager basketball supplement that all schools pay. “Basketball coaches” are very hard to come by!

Croppygenius Posted December 28, 2017 Report Share Posted December 28, 2017 Attended the Gibson Co Loretto game this afternoon at the Huntingdon Christmas tournament. Gibson Co ended up winning by 10. Gibson Co is a great defensive team, very well coached. Loretto played a very griddy game. Thought at half they would get blown out the 2nd half. To their credit they never quit and played Gibson Co pretty even the 2nd half. Great tournament. To win this tournament Huntingdon will have to beat Riverside, Gleason and Gibson Co. Pretty tough run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vandychris Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 What happened to Perry County? Saw they were up 30-10 at the half and lost to 2-10 Columbia Academy 51-50...Did Brooks get hurt? Summertown knocks off Moore County 40-31. I am told Hawkins was zero factor in the game.

Never mind did Brooks get hurt? Was there a bench clearing brawl that left Perry County with only 3 players with none being guards to play the entire 2nd half, ala Alabama? Inexcusable to lose after being up by 20 to a below average Columbia Academy team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbballfan Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 (edited) Hawkins was no doubt a very slow version of last year..she could still score if she caught the ball in the post but she can't get to the rim like she could last year, hate to see any injury to young kid. But, nonetheless, it was a good W for Summertown. Edited December 29, 2017 by cbballfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEBRA35 Posted December 29, 2017 Report Share Posted December 29, 2017 Watched Gibson Co as well. They play good defense but have zero offense. If Huntingdon can beat Gleason for a 3rd time this year I see them beating Gibson Co in the championship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkins did not have a great game but neither did the rest of the girls. Sluggish. A win is a win and a loss is a loss. 1st district games are right around the corner.

Turnovers, Turnovers, Turnovers, plus the Lady Dawgs made shots they haven't made all year. There's a lot of drama going on with the team right now. Brooks fouled out down 1 with 1:30 left to go on a questionable foul call on a steal. She had 34 points and the other guard had 10. Supposedly there's some tension between the players and head coach. Just rumors not sure how true they are. But have been some questionable coaching calls that they have done. It's like mind games, it happens every year. Last year we lost to Waverly on the road when we beat them by 30 during a tournament. Until this team pulls together, the Lady Vikings may be in for a long district season.
