South Greene is still looking good. They are 8-0. Their closest game was against Sullivan East which they won by 20. They are averaging over 80 points a game and their shooting average is close to 60%. District play starts Friday. This should be an exciting year for the Lady Rebels.

I will have to rely on coacht and unapproved website to keep up with those two teams this season.

I would like to see a Middleton/South Greene rematch.

I watched them play Monday and they looked great. They were playing a much weaker team but it was a good opportunity to see the bench play as well. They should have another strong year. They are young, and it may show in tougher games, but I would expect them to go far. They lost their starting point from last year, but gained her youngest sister to take over the spot and she does not disappoint. I would not begin to base their season by the scores of these first few games as the entire bench is seeing plenty of playing time.

I expect you will see South Greene back at the boro again this year. They will be overlooked, just as they are every year. But, with the most trips to state of any team, I think they can find their way back. They lost three talented seniors, but already had an impressive bench and some very talented freshman coming in this year.

South Greene Lady Rebels of course!!!!

Common name in the area.

Because Clarkrange defeated OS convincingly and Middleton only survived SG, I have to say Clarkrange. OS is really the only team I have been able to use to see how good the other side of the bracket is. OS defeated Hampton in OT by 2 at the sectionals. SG was the one who defeated Hampton in the Regionals to send them to OS and had defeated Hampton 3 times this season. That's the only comparison I have.

Congrats to Middleton. I thought it might be the year for the Rebels to bring home their 5th gold ball, but it just wasn't meant to be. They played a heck of a game. You can never count them out.

Tied at 22 after 3.

Sounds like Betsy is shaking it off now.

Pulling for Grainger!!!

I was glad to OS do so well. I haven't seen them play, but knew they had to be good to have beaten Hampton in the sectional. I'm feeling better about my Rebels and East TN all the time.

Cheering on the Cyclones from Greene County tonight!!! Go Betsy!!

I take back my comment that she was not first choice. I have watched the video several times and it looks planned. She slides into her spot at the 3 point line, looks at the goal and then asks for the ball. She was not being guarded. I'm thinking SG knew community expected them to throw it to 32 or 11 and slid 14 in there. She sized up the shot before she even had the ball. Regardless... She made it look easy. So proud of her.

I would say you're probably right about that. Dye was point both years and she was great. Very quick. Not many matched up with her and then she met Butler.

I'm with you.. That would be a great game.

Yes, they defeated us... Ummm.... Convincingly. Lol SG had a heck of team too. I honestly think they could have beaten any other team there.

Further reading says she left the WNBA to join a women's professional team in Poland. But yes... She was fantastic. They won the gold ball two years in a row and SG wanted it bad. Lol

I googled her earlier and she is now in the WNBA.

I remember Butler. She was point for Gibson County which laid South Greene down in the semifinals two years in a row. Was that 09-10?

Good luck to the Cyclones!!! Bring back the gold.

Our radio announcer said it was a bad call as well. I'm glad the Rebels didn't go down on that.

Who?

He sat #11 down when she got her 3rd foul. I think the inbound was intended for #32 first and then #11. But it does not surprise me that CRUM made it happen. I wish I could have been there. I'm sure Community is heartbroken. Losing on a buzzer beater is the hardest loss of all. Radio Greeneville has already posted a video on Facebook and it looks like Crum just made it happen. She literally came out of nowhere.
