THE KING

I don't think there's any hate. The programs do have some beef but the respect is still there. I think it will be a physical game tonight and I'm OK with that as long as there's no unnecessary diving into knees. Just keep it clean on both sides and see who comes out on top.

Well it's championship night. Everyone who knows me in person knows I will be sitting quietly in the stands with my arms crossed. Win or lose, I'm there just to watch my kids play ball. I honestly didn't think they would help much their freshman and sophomore years but Eowyn McCoury is closing in on 100 points this year and I couldn't be more proud. They go out there and give their best and they know I'm not going to be critical on the way home. We always move on to what's next. Our girls with the knee braces have worked hard to get back and give us fans a reason to smile again. We have another who is having surgery tomorrow so remember her in your thoughts and prayers.

Well right now it's the meca sport for cloudland. We used to be a regular state power in football but here lately, we've settled for being champions of a weak region. Girls basketball has been really strong for most of the past 20 years and this year is the strongest its ever been. North Greene has built a very strong program under coach Buchanan and they've had our number in recent years. Hopefully, we've turned the corner and can reclaim some hardware that's alluded us for awhile.

We're getting near the end of basketball and I couldn't help but notice this thread has nearly 26,000 views. I appreciate everyone reading and being interested for girls basketball in this area.

That student section only been to 3 games all year. As for athletes, we play a cleaner brand of ball than NG. That's all I'll say on the matter. Time to move on.

They had already beaten Crockett earlier in the season

Our game with NG and Betsy vs Greenville will be the most exciting games in the upper east. Their bench is deeper now and their guards will play physical with us. 25 and 35 are too smart to get in foul trouble.

I was up top. I've got the livestream and didn't hear any profanity. Not saying you're lying and I wouldn't condone such behavior

Cland wins 49-19. Cosby tried to play Charlie Bayless ball. It didn't work. Getting ready to watch NG and Washburn

Wayne has more length than anyone in A. I'd say they'll run a matchup zone tonight.

I don't think it is. It'll probably be on Facebook somewhere

I don't think so. Pickett can beat any team in class A. Emmy Lowe is probably the toughest strongest point guard in the state

Good luck to DB as well. We're bringing a bus full of rowdy teenagers tonight. I heard coach B was pretty upset with the atmosphere in the championship game and our students were loud and effective but clean. Hopefully we'll both take care of business tonight

I'm in the same predicament. I'm currently at work in North Carolina and will make it just in time for tip off

Another thing is Hampton poured their heart and soul into knocking us off and haven't been the same since. If Cutshall doesn't roll her ankle they might have lost to SG that night

I got my butt kicked in the big ones contest. It's hard to pick the post season. Teams you might think are bad could pull an upset.

I don’t know much about them, just that they split with clay in the regular season.

Don't forget clay and east Robertson. This might be a year where 7a doesn't sweep. I do think Pickett is too much for clarkrange

Ah yes. Back when the rivalries were hot. Lady Landers reading the newspaper while NG was being introduced lol. Who can forget that. Back when a young king was trolling the T and stirring the pot

I watched the Washburn and Unaka game. The lady Pirates could cause NG some problems especially if they're looking ahead to us. We still have to win Monday ourselves. This Washburn team has played a weak schedule but they know how to win. They and NG had similar close matchups with Cumberland Gap. They also beat a decent union County team twice and had the lady rangers doubled up last night in the 4th.

In pickett's defense, it's the region tournament and they have to stay sharp. Their next opponent is gonna be much more formidable and clarkrange could pull an upset

Unless the rules have changed, we can. We last hosted Meigs in 2014. One year in the early 00s we had to use Hampton's gym

It's a toss up with sunbright and Midway. It wouldn't be an upset if Midway won the title.

A Cloudland NG championship game will be held at west ridge hs in Blountsville. If we both take care of business.

I've enjoyed watching Sparta on ucr. Great team!
