I don't know but the officials made a real bad call that cost Heritage. Should have been shooting FT's up 1. Instead they called over the back on Heritage when they had the inside position with 7 seconds left. Not a good call. Refs had been doing pretty good all day until that one.
Congrats to Westview on a good season. They will be back strong again next year. Three Miss Basketballs candidates all looked great. All AA games were in single digits as we expected. Proud of our girls for sure battling against a really good Huntingdon team. Good luck to all. Great games today.
Game day. Time to play ball. Lots of good action. All of these teams can get hot and win it. I pray for all these young ladies for safety and guardian angels to protect them. McMinn and York both tough I agree.
I can see where South Side would not be happy because they have had tough draws last three years. Not going to buy South Gibson complaining about their draw.
They have TSSAA Board members that represent schools that know and I would bet someone would cave if they are doing these unfair or plugging in teams. No coaches from schools are there but you think they want to lose money and have 1's and 2's playing each other first round multiple times when championship day they would make $5.00 more a head for these big matchups?? No way they want South Side Upperman or York Westview playing first around after both was in championship in 2022 in last years Tournament. JMO I don't think they just plug teams and play. That cost them money.
No that wouldn't help because who wants to play the Gibson County Region or the Upper Cumberland Region every year?? You think that would be fair?? TSSAA is doing a blind draw like they have been. No way they plug in these matchups. Just unlucky if you're not happy.
I will be there for sure watching the Single A. What time you getting there?? I will send out a post on this thread where I will be when I get there. Usually there at the top below the pull out bleachers around the railing on the side where the tennis courts are
Don't you think that is the way they are doing it now?? You think they wanted York and Westview last year and South Side and Upperman first round?? All four of these teams played in the championship game in 2022 and met first round in 2023?? I doubt that was there plan.
Yep I was there and it was a war. They don't want games like this in the first round. They want these games in game 3 when the ticket prices are higher. South Side Upperman last year, York Westview last year. I think it is just unlucky draws.
I agree with your post. Unlucky is the correct verbage. Gibson County was undefeated three different years in the late 90's and early 2000's and we drew Livingston Academy 3 years in a row we were up there. Livingston Academy and Gibson County were both ranked top 2 in state. Last year York drew Westview and they were top 2. No way they plug these schools in IMO. Just an unlucky draw. Each school has TSSAA reps as contacts. I always hear it is a draw but they just don't do it live.
Humboldt turned it over probably 30 times. Humboldt down 18 rallies to take a 3 point lead with 10 seconds left. Middle College shoots a corner shot at the buzzer and banks it in. Unbelievable. Game goes into OT and Humboldt couldn't recover.
