Mariah signed with Bryan College, but the coach is gone and she has an opportunity to elsewhere now. With her performance at the championship game, I'd say she'll be getting a lot of phone calls.

Are you drunk?

Thanks Dog, as a SG fan, it is always a privilage to play NG becuase they are humble and fight for what they want. They are like Greene County's David vs. Goliath. Thank you for supporting them and this really shows that Hampton is a class act as well.

Barb, this is about kids here. We could all send our kids to GHS because they have the best, but we don't because we know life is more than the best facilities. James, being a Chrisitan will no doubt pray about the situation before making a decision. I think as a person, James will choose to stay where he is because these girls and their parents are too classy to be swayed by money. Stay where you are James and be the coach that Greene County is proud of. Don't let money and facilities rule your decision...it wouldn't be smart.

I hope your right Dog. I'm a South Greene fan, so this really doesn't include me, but I hope James stays right where he is. I really think James is to big of person to take money over commitment. He is great for these girls and I don't think many of them would want to transfer to Greeneville. I'm against ya this time Barb. We all know that GHS has the best facilities and more money and all that, but that doesn't make them the best in Greene. Our little county schools are good too, even if we don't have the money the city does. James please uphold your reputation and stay where you are.

Congrats to Wayne County. Our Lady Huskies didn't give up, and we in Greene County are proud. Thanks for the response GCPioneer. I just can't imagine Buchanan getting a Technical. He's a stand-up guy.

Overtime!!!!

NG leads by 2 with 40 seconds to go

Why was the technical called on James Buchanan? I can't imagine him saying anything, does anyone there know?

That's what I heard on the radio....WOW!!!!

Halftime. LC 30-14. North Greene needs to get under control. It sounds like Mariah is on her game, but Mindy McNeese hasn't broken loose. Hopefully they can get back in this.

End of 1. LC 10-8.

Very good post. I'm going to pull for the Lady Huskies all the way. I think Mariah will hit her shots today and if I'm right you all will see a different team. In Greene County, all of our schools have a rivalry, but I don't think any of us don't love North Greene. When you go to the local tournaments where all five schools are represented you see them all mingling and laughing. Greene County is pulling for you today Huskies. I wish I could be there, but I know that for those of us stuck here in Greene will be able to hear a pin drop at 3:00 (EST). Play like I know you can, and never give up!

That's the only way to bring it!!! lol. Yes McNeese is a jewel and she may bring this team back for a few years. I am actually a South Greene fan, but I don't know anyone who doesn't love North Greene. They are the underdog in our county and have really come on strong lately. Coach Buchanan is a South Greene graduate and Mariah Britton's mother was SG's point guard back in the day. We are all very proud of them as I am sure you are proud of your girls.

Thanks, I'm sure it will be a great game. I've just felt these girls have been forgotten. Thanks for a classy response.

Yes and North Greene has done just that. They have played South Greene 3 time, Chuckey Doak 3 times and Greeneville 2 times. All three of these are excellent double A teams. SG should be at state, and C-D and Greeneville could be at state. NG beat SG and GHS once and CD twice. These girls have had a hard schedule, and I don't care what CoachT says. These girls can play ball!!!

Yay, I'm so glad you're on here Barb, I was beginning to feel like I was the only person who knew anything about NG. I can't imagine there is another team there who has more heart than these girls or a coach with more class than James Buchanan. These girls hang in there with three very good AA Greene County teams. South Greene should have made it to state, and if you want my opinion I think the refs were a factor in their substate game. This was a two point game in overtime though and not 54 to 39 or whatever it was. I have been very disappointed at how NG has been overlooked. They were there last year, you would think that someone would realize they are very talented. I would just like to see credit where credit is due. I agree with Barb that the Coach should have adjusted to the way the game was going. I hope that NG can pull it out tomorrow. I know they have the ability whether anyone else does or not.

This is a sincere question, but why should Wayne Co. be heavily favored. Being from the far East I don't know much about Wayne County, but when I checked their schedule they were beaten by Loretto twice. Yes, I'm sure that Loretto didn't play their best but I think NG defense had something to do with that. NG hasn't played to their potential at state, and I'm sure their nerves have gotten to them. So again, why should Wayne Co be favored?

Way to go Lady Huskies. One more game to go.

NG by 12, about a minute left.

End of 3rd, North Greene leads by 8.

It's half-time. North Greene leads 16 to 14. Loretto had 13 turnovers and NG had 4. North Greene is playing great defense but can't hit their shots. If they could get their shots to fall this game would be a blowout.

South Greene was down the first half of the year. They regrouped in January and went down by two in overtime of the substate game. Eliabethton is for real and will bring it Thursday, but I hope they are overlooked just like North Greene was.

Most of what I know about Middle and West Tennessee is previous state visits and CoachT. I knew that Lake County was the favorite, but I was glad to see that North Greene was being overlooked. These girls are real and I'm proud to say they are from Greene County. Last year, Greene County had three teams in the at state. Greeneville and South Greene in AA and NG in A. This year SG lost in overtime at Substate and Greeneville made it too regionals along with another Greene County school, Chuckey-Doak. All three of these AA teams are the real deal and North Greene beat CD twice, SG once and GHS once. Their losses came to SG twice, GHS once, and other very good teams. I knew these girls would come in with a shot to possibly win it all. I know that T.T. Flowers was off, but so was Mariah Britton. Mariah was the runner up highest scorer in Greene averaging over 20 points, she couldn't hit many of her shots today. If she brings it like I know she can, Loretto will have their hands full. Mindy McNeese is a Freshman who plays like a Senior and she will definitely be a factor along with Laiken Morrow and Haley Vaughn. These girls play like a team and have a terrific coach. It takes a team to win the game, and North Greene has the ability. All of us at South Greene are cheering you on girls...play like we know you can.

Congratulations Lady Huskies. I am so proud of you!!!
