Kroger READ THE POST and try to understand what it is saying before you try to respond. It had nothin to do with who had the most fouls in the first half (although Lawrence County ended up with more- no surprise) It was the fact that key LCHS players were put in foul trouble fast which changed the whole game COMPETELY. As for Tyler scoring 22 points....... I would hope that in being rated one of the top players in the nation he would be able to do that, especially when the refs pave him an easier route to the basket cause the outside game sure doesn't work for him.

It would have been nice if referee Collie had not been sooooooooooooo protective of Tyler Smith that he felt a need to get Hartsfield out of the game within the first two minutes. Honestly 3 fouls in 2 minutes. I was right next to where the fouls were "supposed" to have occured and I sure didn't see what referee Collie "saw". His foul calling was ridiculious. Hartsfield was talking to his coach after the first two fouls and wasn't even looking at Collie and Collie called a technical on him. We were there to watch a ballgame not a see which Lawrence County players could be eliminated so Tyler Smith could have the opportunity to try to look good for UT coach Peterson. It was an injustice for Hartsfield and LCHS to take one of Lawrence County's stongest defensive players out of the game so Tyler Smith could try to put on a show. Tyler Smith was mouthing off right next to where I was sitting and then wrapped his arm into Hartsfields and Hartsfield got the foul. It was unbelievable. A fan from Giles County was sitting in front of me and said "My Lord, what did Hartsfield do to that ref?" I don't think it's what Hartsfield did to the ref, it was Tyler running his mouth and then tattletelling on Hartsfield when he gave it back to him. It was pretty evident what was going on, but at the expense of taking one of Lawrence County's key players out? Tonite was not a true basketball game because the refs starting taking out LCHS players before the game even got started. How could anybody judge the outcome. First the players have to be allowed to be a part of the game. Those fouls that were called were to get him removed from the game and in a hurry. LCHS you played hard and did a great job, maybe next time you will be allowed to play with all your players.

shes awesome..and don't underestimate her sister

How many seniors did Lawrence County have on their team?

I have read posts on Coacht many times while my friends were logged on and have learned alot about teams. I just wanted to say I was at Blackman last night to watch the Blackman (team ranked 7th in the midstate by the Tennessean) and Lawrence County game (no ranking). Gomab had even referred to LawrenceCounty as "terrible". I wasn't expecting much of a game but what I witnessed last night was far from "terrible". I was truely impressed by the play of Lawrence County. The team played well and played hard, they were unselfish and played the best TEAM ball I have witnessed in a while. It was a great game for both teams! final score was 51 -49. Desmond Mcguire put up a great offensive game and Chris Hartsfield guarded one frustrated David Price (held to 8 points). Hartsfield did a superior job on Price. The entire team played well. Lawrence County, I just wanted to let you know you impressed alot of people last night, including me. Great game. I would have loved to watch your team at MTSU. Maybe next year. Didn't ya just lose 2 seniors?
