HE WAS RIGHT. WHAT HE SAID WAS THE LAUDERDALE COUNTY TOURNMENT, NOT THE CHRISTMAS TOURNMENT. THEY HAVE WON IT 10 YEARS IN A ROW.

what did weatherly do to get suspended?

WE GOT OUTPLAYED, OUT HUSTLED AND OUTCOACHED! GIRLS GET UP,GET GOIN AND GET LEWIS COUNTY TONIGHT. THE DISTRICT IS THE PRIORITY. WE GOT A BAD GAME OUT OF OUR SYSTEM. START A WINNING STREAK TONIGHT. GET BACK TO TEAMWORK AND MAYBE WE CAN WORK IN OUR SUBS CORRECTLY AND FIGURE OUT WHEN TO CALL A TIMEOUT! GREAT HUSTLE AWARD GOES TO NIKKI REED!

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE LORETTO BEAT LAW CO IN BOYS BASKETBALL?

APPARENTLY MOST COLLEGES CAN AFFORD GAS ALSO, BECAUSE MANY ARE COMING TO WATCH JANA PLAY.

JANA HAD 26 REBOUNDS LAST NIGHT IN THE FINALS. SHE HAD 72 REBOUNDS IN THE FOUR TOURNAMENT GAMES TO GO WITH THE 115 POINTS.

SCORING STATS JANA CROSS-34 PTS 26 REBS BIRDYSHAW--9PTS NIKKI REED--9PTS PAIGE HANNAH-7PTS GREEN-7PTS FRANKLIN-4PTS STONE-1PT LORETTO 15 17 12 16 12 72 DESHLER 15 14 15 16 5 65

ACTUAL SCORE LORETTO-72, DESHLER-65 NORTHWEST ALABAMA GIRLS CHRISTMAS TOURNMENT FINALS! LORETTO WINS IN OVERTIME, DEFEATS CURRENTLY RANKED #1 4A DESHLER (ALABAMA). DESHLER HAS WON THE PREVIOUS TWO STATE TITLES IN 4A ALABAMA. THE TWO TEAMS WERE TIED 15-15 AFTER THE FIRST QUARTER. IT WAS EITHER TIED AT THE HALF OR A ONE POINT GAME. LORETTO LEAD 60-57 WITH 8 SECONDS TO PLAY, DESHLER HIT A 3 POINTER ON BUZZER TO SEND THE GAME INTO OVERTIME. LORETTO JUMPED OUT TO THE LEAD AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. I DONT HAVE ACTUAL SCORING FOR THE GIRLS BUT JANA CROSS HAD HER FOURTH CONSECUTIVE NIGHT OF BIG SCORING. MON-26PTS, TUE-26PTS WED-29PTS. JANA WASN'T THE ONLY LADY MUSTANG LEADING THE TEAM, PAIGE HANNAH, NIKKI REED,LAURA BIRYSHAW, LEAH STONE AND CHANNING FRANKLIN ALL HAD GREAT GAMES ON BOTH OFFENSE AND DEFENSE. SARA BREWER PLAYED WELL IN LIMITED ACTION. GREAT JOB TO ALL ELEVEN LADY MUSTANGS.

SCORING FOR THE LORETTO VS SHEFFIELD GAME, JANA CROSS-29 PTS, LEAH STONE 16PTS,

A COMBINATION OF TURNOVERS A (ONE) REFEREE TRYING TO SEND US BACK ACROSS THE STATE LINE!

LORETTO BEAT #3 RANKED 4A MADISON COUNTY(HUNTSVILLE) 69-58 TUESDAY NIGHT TO REACH THE SEMI FINALS. JANA CROSS POURED IN 26 POINTS, LEAH STONE ADDED 15 AND LAURA BIRDYSHAW ADDED 14. THE LOSS DROPPED MC TO A 11-2 RECORD. LORETTO BEAT SHEFFIELD (11-1) 65-64 WEDNESDAY NIGHT TO ADVANCE TO THE FINALS OF THE NORTHWEST ALABAMA CHRISTMAS TOUNAMENT AGAINST DESHLER(TUSCUMBIA, AL) THE TWO TIME DEFENDING 4A STATE CHAMPS AND CURRENTLY RANKED #1 TEAM IN 4A ALABAMA.

LORETTO LADY MUSTANGS OPENED UP THE FIRST ROUND OF THE TOURNAMENT WITH A WIN OVER ALABAMA CHRISTIAN, THE # 7 RANKED TEAM FROM MONTGOMERY. ALL ELEVEN LADY MUSTANGS PLAYED AND AT LEAST NINE SCORED, POSSIBLY TEN. INDIVIDUAL SCORING WILL BE POSTED LATER. GREAT JOB TO ALL ELEVEN LADYS, GREAT TEAMWORK. GOOD JOB TO THE COACHING.

THE SCORING TOTAL SEEMED LOW FOR THE SUMMERTOWN GIRLS. DID UPPERMAN SLOW THE BALL DOWN?, DID THE FATIGUE SET IN?, OR WAS IT AN OFF NITE SHOOTING? AFTER SEEING THE WAY THE LADY EAGLES RAN AND SHOT THURSDAY NITE , I WAS EXPECTING HIGHER SCORES.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE LADY EAGLES ON THE WIN, YOU HAVE A VERY TALENTED TEAM AND ARE VERY WELL COACHED . I AM PROUD OF OUR LADY MUSTANGS FOR THE EFFORT LAST NIGHT. WE DID A BETTER JOB AT TEAMWORK, NOW LETS WORK ON THE TURNOVERS. WITH THE EFFORT WE SHOWED LAST NIGHT, WE WOULD BLOW MOST OTHER TEAMS OFF THE COURT. GREAT JOB TO JANA CROSS, LEADING THE TEAM IN SCORING, REBOUNDING AND ASSISTS, NOW THATS A TEAM PLAYER. IT IS ALSO NICE TO SEE MANDY AND SARA GET PLAYING TIME, MAYBE WE CAN LEARN FROM SUMMERTOWN THAT SUBS ARE THE KEY TO WINNING. AGAIN CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH TEAMS AND TO ALL POSTERS ON THIS THREAD FOR KEEPING THINGS BETWEEN THESE TWO SCHOOLS POSITIVE.

GILES CO 'S COACH HANNAH BROUGHT A GOOD GAME PLAN. LORETTO HAD TOO MANY UNFORCED TURNOVERS AND A LACK OF TEAMWORK FROM SOME OF OUR PLAYERS.

great post eagleclaw!

PAGEMAN, I REMEMBER BIRDYSHAW SCORING, YET YOU DO NOT HAVE HER LISTED IN THE SCORING? ACTUALLY BIRDY MADE THE FIRST BASKET OF THE GAME AS WELL AS SOME 3'S.

NOT ONLY ARE CONGRATULATONS IN ORDER FOR JANA, BUT ALSO FOR THE ENTIRE LADY MUSTANG TEAMS OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS. THERE SAVE BEEN SEVERAL HUNDRED ASSISTS DISHED OUT TO OUR #41. GREAT JOB LORI, JENNIFER, RACHAEL, MERI AS WELL AS THE CURRENT LADY MUSTANGS.

JANA SCORED 20 POINTS IN THE LOSS TO COLUMBIA CENTRAL, GIVING HER 1011 CAREER POINTS IN HER 3RD GAME OF HER JUNIOR YEAR. GREAT JOB JANA!

Does anyone have the names of each team and who they are playing and what the times are?

Loretto J.V won 13-3 and the Varsity won 7-2 I Think. I know they won. It was a great game it was 2-2 until the 6th inning. #4 for L.C. pitched real good.

Loretto won 5 to 3! I believe. Way to go girls!!

I AM A DIE HARD Loretto LADY MUSTANG AND A I THINK JANA CROSS IS A SUPER BASKETBALL PLAYER, BUT I DONT THINK IT HELPS OUR SCHOOL OR JANA TO BASH BROOKE JOHNSON. I SAW BROOKE PLAY TWICE IN THE TOURNAMENT, AND SHE IS A VERY TALENTED BASKETBALL PLAYER. JUST BEING NOMINATED FOR MISS BASKETBALL SHOULD ATTEST FOR THAT. SHE HAS INCREDIBLE STATS OVER HER CAREER AND I CAN SEE WHY THE Seymour FANS ARE SO CRAZY ABOUT THIS YOUNG LADY. I ALSO SAW A LOT OF OTHER TALENTED GIRLS ON THE Seymour SQUAD. SOME OF THEM STRUGGLED IN THE SEMI-FINALS, BUT THAT DOES NOT MAKE THEM BAD PLAYERS. Loretto FANS SHOULD KNOW THAT GIRLS CAN HAVE A BAD NIGHT, AS WE HAVE HAD SOME OVER THE SEASON FROM SOME OF OUR BEST PLAYERS. JANA IS OFF TO GREAT HIGH SCHOOL CAREER AND I THINK THE BEST PART IS YET TO COME OVER THE NEXT TWO YEARS. THERE ARE SEVERAL GIRLS ON THE Loretto TEAM WITH BRIGHT FUTURES IN SPORTS BEYOND THE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL. WE WOULD NOT LIKE PEOPLE FROM OTHER PLACES BASHING "OUR GIRLS", SO LETS STAY POSITIVE ON BROOKE AND THE REST OF THE GIRLS FROM Seymour. MY APOLIGIZES GO OUT TO Seymour ON BEHALF OF THE Loretto FANS. I DONT KNOW WHO Ball-FAN IS, BUT BY THE WAY HE OR SHE SPELLS THE WORD Loretto, I AM NOT SURE IS FROM OUR AREA.
