  1. Pickett Co lost to Prep by 8 at home after leading with time running out but took some bad shots and Prep pulled away on free throws. In the Sub-State they lost at Prep by 13. They had to go to Chattanooga because after beating Gordonsville fairly easily three times, they let up in the region championship and lost. That pretty much ended their season since winning a Sub-State at Prep was unlikely. PC was ranked #2 to #4 during the season...they'll be better next year, but teams need to be focused on that region championship game. PC has been in a lot of Sub-States. They have only lost once at home, by four. They have never won a Sub-State on the road. I just wanted to remind good teams that will be in a region championship next year...stay focused! Congratulations Prep!
  2. Tonight Knowledge Academies girls rode a long way to Pickett Co for their region game. They had a tough year and had to play the state ranked #2 Lady Bobcats on their home court. Knowledge is a fairly new program and PC has a long history of success...5 state championships and have been to the state 6 of the last 8 years. When they arrived they looked a little uncomfortable but when their starting five were announced, the announcer said, "Let's give Knowledge a warm Pickett County welcome. They have come a long way." The large PC crowd all clapped for them and clapped for each player introduced. They had a good guard and the team made 4 threes. PC starters didn't play a lot and the game was still lopsided but each time a Knowledge player scored the PC student section and other PC fans clapped and cheered. That brought smiles to the Knowledge players and while I'm sure it wasn't fun to lose, I think they liked the welcome they got. The only bad part was a Pickett player turned quickly and before she could react ran into their guard. The Knowledge guard was in pain but was able to go back into the game after a few minutes. It was great to see the fans making the Knowledge girls feel a little better and while they had a tough season, I'm sure they had fun in practices, in games, making friendships with their teammates, getting to travel around and getting good healthy exercise. I hope they work hard and bring their program around. PC had some down years, but came back. Hopefully Knowledge will do the same.
  3. Pickett County only has 2 losses, both to 3A AP ranked Cumberland Co...the 2nd matchup at Cumberland County wasa 3 point game. PC has played a tough schedule and has played 11 top 25 teams. Sophomore Zoey Nicholas had 38 points including 6 of the Lady Bobcat's 16 threes. Ella Kate Keisling had 5. PC is ranked #2 but beating Clay Co so badly could move them to #1 in the AP Poll. Clay was ranked #7 on Coacht last week, but I haven't checked this week. PC went to the state last year, a year earlier than expected and could be a threat to win it all this year.
  4. The Dragonettes had an early 14 point lead on the 6-1 Lady Cavaliers but Cookeville took the lead by 3 with about 5 minutes to go. York retook the lead at 50-48 with 51 seconds to go. Cookeville panicked with seconds to go and threw up a terrible 3...it missed by 10 feet at least. York brought it in and Clemson signee, Reese Beauty, was fouled. She sank both free throws for the 52-48 win.
  5. Pickett Co led by as many as 9 points but very poor shot choices in the last couple of minutes cost them the game. They took 2 unnecessary 3s and missed both giving Prep the chance to win. They let Prep steal the ball on a throw in with time running out. This is one PC never should have lost.
  6. East Robertson was the worst sports I've ever seen in all the DECADES I've watch. A East Robertson coach PUNCHED a York player. He is being charged with assault. They started 2 fights, kicked York players who were on the ground, and all night long they shoved York players after the play ended. York cost themselves the game by going for it on 4th down twice costing 2 touchdowns. But they came back from 35-7 to 35-31 and if they got the last on side kick, they would have won. Their coach encouraged his team to act like horrible. I would be ashamed if I was from ER. I hope the ER assistant coach goes to jail.
  7. You're embarrassing yourselves. What's your excuse for getting blown out by Monterey last year? Our region won 3 of 4 games then demolished your team this year. So your quarterback would have stopped all the breakaway touchdowns York made??? He would have stopped our players for stopping your runners cold all night? Your quarterback would have stopped all our long passes? Sore winners? lol...talk about sore losers. York beat FAR better teams than any team you played. York bear defending state champion Friendship at Friendship. We bear ranked 4A Stone. Hampton would have been 3rd in our district. Suck it up and quit whining.
  8. I said for weeks Marion County was WAY overrated. Who wouldn't be 11-0 playing such a powderpuff schedule. Sure you are decent at 11-0 but no way #2 in the state. Picking ER over Marion Co was a no brained.
  9. That's ridiculous the Marion Co tied York. York beat 4A 6-1 Stone Memorial and has had a much tougher schedule. They beat #7 Clay Co 26-0, beat Oneida 28-0 when they were tied for 1st in the region at Oneida, beat a very good Bledsoe Co 27-17 at Bledsioe Co. Marion County has beaten ONE team with a winning record, Sequatchie Co 5-3 and one team that was 4-4. The rest all had losing records. Tonight York beat defending state champion #3 Friendship Christian who scored on their first drive and not again. You scored and went for 2 in the 3rd quarter and had a player all along in the end zone. York lined up to kick the PAT and faked it and Friendship was completely fooled. We were on the 6 with about minute to go and could have scored again but took a knee three times and ran out the clock. York also had 2 interceptions. Friendship's line was huge...much bigger than York's. Also York is home grown. FC can recruit from anywhere.
  10. I looked up the population of McKenzie and it was over 5000. A town that size should have a highschool with about 800-1000. Jamestown is 2300 and the school has about 500 and is 2A. How can there be only 367 in the school?
  11. Pickett Co. played the 2nd toughest schedule. Hampton the 62nd. But PC's first six players are 2 freshmen, 2 sophomores and 2 juniors. If they don't do it this year, they'll be back for several years. This is PC's 6th trip in 9 years.
  12. I thought all year Clay Co.was way over rated. No way were they the #2 team in the state. They were only #2 because of their accomplishments the last few years. They will be way down next year.
  13. They were looking at PC players before the game and laughing but they weren't laughing when PC came back from 9 down to take the lead in the first half. PC missed a 1 and 1 with 5.1 seconds to go that could have given them the lead. PC is very small and ER towered over them but PC played them tough.
  14. Pickett Co and Clay Co will be at the state. Clarkrange didn't make the region last year and will be 3rd or 4th in the district this year. I haven't seen Clay Co but Pickett Co has only lost to 2, 3A teams. Friday they beat a Kentucky school on that team's home court and that school has 4 times as many students as PC. PC has been to Murfreesboro 5 out of the last 7 years and lost to the eventual state champion each time. This is their best team in years.
