greenfield is a very good basketball team and sometimes playing an opponent like ripley can be an advantage in the longrun for them longterm.ripley has a very quick team.good teams only make you get better.

halls has one returning senior back this season with significant playing time with a cast of other other supporting players.they still have alot of quickness and shoot the ball very well.they will improve more in the season when playing the likes of dyre county and dyersburg just like we play each year.they had an 11 point lead after one period against obion county but had a long dry spell at a bad time when obion shot the ball well.coming from 18 points down showed what type of guts and character they have in never quitting.this type of thing helps them again better teams then obion like dyresburg and dyre county.obion is still dangerous in my book because the ability to pass,and get open for shots and not afraid to launch anytime.

halls wins there 7th straight game to start out 7-0 with a district game coming up against memphis mitchell tuesday night in halls.

you are right in getting ready for trenton.they are very scrappy and want quit.halls showed they are not quitter either by make an incredible comeback after watching obion shoot the eyes out.winning a game from behind helps you feel confident even when you are down psychologically.at least in my mind its always been that way.trenton has several seniors back from last year and showed they can play with us on their scrappy play.by playing the likes of obion,adamsville,dyre county and dyresburg twice each time will improve our chances with tournament time.we play mitchell this tuesday night and thwey have some big guys but we took care of them last season.mitchell will bring some athletes to the gym come tuesday night.halls has alot of confidence in there play but will have to prove it on the floor night after night since they went to the state last season.if they want to get there again,they need to keep working on getting better night afer night.

hals over brighton 71-52,over obion 64-61,oversouth fulton 75-57,over usj 65-55,over brighton 52-46,and over obion 69-68.

sorry about the mix up there.feb.8th in memphis we play mitchell.when getting there,it will probably be an hour late just like last year.the officials arrived an hour late just like everybody else had the same problem.

hi.i have been reading the rivalry posting of this great rivalry between two good basketball teams.i am from halls and was shocked in hearing of dyer county winning by a wide margin in one of the games.as you all know,halls split with dyer county last year while dyersburg beat halls twice.the athletes that dyersburg has is simply amazing when watching there quickness with there height to match it.i also had a chance to watch dyre county play at murfreesboro as well.that was my first time there and hope halls will make another appearance.hopefully dyersburg can make it as well.i really thought they had a great shot last year as well.halls playing dyre county and dyersburg as well as other AA teams will help them for tournament time.i cant wait until tournament time again.it was our first shot since 1929.the only living woman at the time who attended the game made sure she showed for last years as well.i thought that was neat.she even showed me pictures of some of the players back then.we won our first game but shot i think the worse shhoting performance all year.it had to come at a bad time.but these guys got a taste of what it was like playing for might be a state title.these guys want to get back.so far,we are 6-0 after beating obion county 69-68 in a barnburner of a game where halls trailed by eighteen points midway through the third quarter to pull it out.i talked to one obion county fan who told me that they have been shootiong bad all year.but those obion guys can really shoot it and want have any conscience about it either.good luck to dyr county and dyresburg this season.i will be at all the games halls will play against dyersburg and dyre county.i love watching the team spirits from both crowds.i really like watching coach hopkins work the side lines.hes an intense competitor and anybody can tell by watching.i knew dyre county was only returning fisk this year but was really surprised on how dyre county has started off this season with the improvement of crittendon.corrcet me if im wrong but i dont remember him playing much last year on there starting five.i only heard of one returning starter back this year.i know dyersburg has several back including the mans kid.hes extremely quick.

halls wins a big game over obion county central 69-68 after leading by 11 after one and trailing by 18 points midway in the third quarter.obion shot the lights out in the second quarter to start a 24-0 run in the quarter to lead at the half 39-29.midway through the third quarter after obion leading 49-31,halls finally got some buckets to drop along with strayhorn hitting several freethrows with the clock stoped as well as the tough D that brought halls back from a big deficit.lajoel nance had a baby 14 foot baseline jumper to give halls a 69-68 lead with 8 seconds remaing.obion inbounded the ball and had a pass deflected for a loose ball.one of the freshmen players for halls dove for the loose ball a grabbed it and held on to it for the final three seconds to make an amazing comeback.

the game against mitchell was rescheduled for feb.11th because mitchell high schools football game was being played.they are still 5-0.
