We have most of our players returning next year, but it won't matter when we average 20+ turnovers per game. We had 10 or 11 just in the first quarter tonight. 

Way to many turnovers. Hard to watch

Ditto here in Cumberland just a complete lack of situational awareness time after time with leads late in games.  What Larry White or Mike Buck would do with the talent on either team would be incredible to watch.

I hate it for both teams. Certainly both teams should have advanced with the talent they have. I think lack time management and fundamentals is bad coaching that should have been fixed this late in the season. I too would love to see what Larry White or Mike Buck could do. What different teams we would have 

Sorry for poor wording. Livingston did handle the pressure well and came up with the win. Great district finish from them. Good luck to all these teams in the regions. 

White county has figured out how to handle high pressure situations. Stone has as well. Stone was up and slowed down their offense and looked for good shots only with 2 minutes to go. It the free throws weren’t missed they would have won. White county capitalized on that miss with a great drive in and won. Compare that to Cumberland who were up by maybe 10 start of 4th quarter. Did not play with composure to hold the lead. Then one minute left and up by 2 a player shot a 3 pointer and missed when the ball should have been held. Game changer. So the last second shot happened for a reason. Poor decisions. That is why I say White and Stone are the better teams. No one cares about individual players.  Takes a team to win. White county will go to substate. Stone may too but will next year for sure. 

Agree White County was flat. Talent is there they just need to refocus. They need to brush it off and move on 

White county did well working and playing like a team. Cumberland may have the most talent but when you place 4th who cares. Gotta win or talent means nothing. It’s interesting to note how White county and Stone handled the pressure of the last minute of the ballgame, compared to what Cumberland and Livingston did in their games. That tells you who the better TEAM is. 

I expect to see Upperman at State. Lots of talent with the other teams as well and can’t dismiss any of them. 

 Congratulations to a great White County team on the championship. Mitchell had his team well prepared and they had great composure the whole game. Well deserved win. Stone did well but just couldn’t overtake them. 
Earlier games, Livingston hit there own last minute winning shot for the win over Cumberland. Overall impression for the season. More impressed with SMHS than expected. Cumberland is less impressive than expected. White County keeps getting better and at the right time. Livingston is a decent team but won’t make it through regions IMO. 

Any thoughts on the final 4 teams standing? Predictions? 
 
 

I’ve been following some of the games. I had picked Cumberland as the #1 seed in the district. I’m going to change that to White County now and move Cumberland down the 2nd or 3rd. White County is well coached and I believe they can pull out the win and Cumberland seems to lack in that department. Smhs is more impressive than I thought. They are very well coached and may surprise us all at the end.

I’d go with ..

1. Cumberland County

2. White County 

3. Livingston 

4. Stone

5. Dekalb

6. Upperman

7. Macon 

This will come down to White and Cumberland for the Championship. My guess is Cumberland County for the win.
