The Lady Cardinals have picked up 2 tremendous wins in 2 days.....beat 14 and 2 . Hardin Co. 43 - 40 and then turned around and beat 9 and 5 rival Covington 62-59 in overtime.....The Lady Cardinals are on a roll and are coming together at at the right time.....Congrats to Coach Lanier and those Lady Cardnals on to big wins..... sbl

Do ya really think the coaches were not trying to do this exact thing you are talking about?!!!!! Come on these are 14 to 18 yr old kids..........how many times have you asked your 16 yr old to do something and it not get done right?!!!!! I imagine 9 out of 10 times it is done incorrectly!!!! It is amazing these coaches accomplish as much as they do!!! sbl

Brighton girls hang close to Poplar Bluff with a 10 point loss.....and then beat USJ by 28 with a complete game!!!! Congrats Lady Cardinals.....on to Ripley Tomorrow!!!!!! sbl

Brighton continues to improve....closes out tough district game with Munford 60 to 54.....Munford had 18 points from the Free Throw line in the fourth quarter alone....they didn't even shoot 10 the whole rest of the game!!!!! Good thing Brighton had a 20 point lead in the 3rd quarter....After 3 starters fouled out....or were on the bench with 4 fouls....Munford made a run!!!! Great game though and they finished!!!! sbl

Brighton picks up win number 2......heads to Hardin Co Friday for big district game!!!!! South Fulton beat Hardin by 3.....Good Luck Ladies.... sbl

Brighton has played several more solid teams to close scores!!! Lost to Collierville in OT by 1....and lost to Arlington by 3....Finally broke through and finished strong with an 8 point win versus Germantown....who beat Arlington earlier......Brighton should probably be 3 and 2....they let 2 slip away...but the learning curve of how to finish games is now finally coming around!!!! Arlington and Germantown are both in the Commercial Appeal Dandy Dozen....Congrats to the Lady Cardinals and good luck!!! sbl

Brighton girls played another top team and pushed them to their limits!!!!! Lake County v Brighton score was 47-42......The girls played a great game and had several chances in the end.....They should have a fun year....Good Luck to them!!! sbl

St Benedict was the runner-up in Division 2 Large Classification.....Private Schools!!!!

Brighton girls played Obion girls tough......had a terrible 1st half but stormed back in the 3rd to bring it within 2.....at one point late in the 4th it was a 6 point game.....they ended up losing by 9 after having to foul......Much improved!!!! sbl

What time and days are regions tournaments?????? Seems to be some confusion!!! sbl

VOLLY. I understand your aversion to being called a racist or being insinuated to be a racist....I in no way believe that you are a racist....I just feel that some of the comments you made were taking away from what LC accomplished....kinda like saying yal did good, congratulations but....we just did this or that to give yall the game...... ......Also I know many gifted athletes and football or basketball players who should be at the next level or even on sundays that didnt have the grades, attitude, work ethic or whatever it may have been to make it and it is sad.....many of these are from Lake Co......and many from many other areas!!!!! .....my Chip on the shoulder comes from the uppity folks surronding LC who look down on the people and ball players from LC.....When i first moved to Wtn many years ago I lived in an area surronding LC and when Lc was mentioned it was in derogatory fashion towards the people of LC.....I have been in LC for many years now and the people here a just the same as the people in the surronding areas...I have been places in this area and been asked where are you from and said LC and the response was Im sorry......so when it comes to many things I will continue to have a chip in my shoulder.....and I will continue to support these fine young ladies from LCHS who in my book are the FLAGSHIP program for our school and one of the Flagship programs in west Tn!!!!!! ......the athletes comment has also been one of the derogatory comments made by many in the surronding area.....kinda goes like this.....man they got great athletes but they are a bunch of thugs.....with no discipline and not much coaching......I have heard this said!!!!!!! many times......so any time I hear the athletes comment without the basketball players added to it....i shudder bc of the previous comments involved with it....you may not mean it that way......but for people fro LC who have heard this dribble for years......that is the way it sounds!!!!!!!!! sbl

VOLLY, Exactly the comment I would expect from you and someone with your mindset! You may not intentionally mean your comments to be insensitive but they are.......I dont know any "athletes" from LC that didnt make it bc of "not having their head on straight"....but I know alot from Greenfield! ...........WHOAAAAAA!!!! dont get mad!!!!!! I really dont know any from Greenfield....but do you "feel" my point now!!!!!!! Anyway, the girls from LC are not mere athletes.....they are excellent BASKETBALL players..... i understand your not having to be "politically correct" rant.....BUT......come join us for a while and see what its like to always get credit for having great "athletes" and never getting credit for being great basketball players who work extremely hard almost year round!!!!!!! Then maybe you will understand OUR sensitivity to being just athletes..... As far as Greenfield not playing their game.....maybe Lake County didnt play their game at yalls place....maybe TT finally stayed out fo foul trouble when playing yall.....maybe LC had something to do with yall not playing your game at Trenton.....and maybe yall had somethin to do with us not playin our game at yalls place.......My take......at Trenton LC played their best defensive game against yall this year......Greenfields shooters never got a chance to relax....pressure was applied continously on both ends of the floor by LC and therefore when Greenfields shooters got open they were not as accurate.......the same could be said about when we played at yalls place for our shooters!!!! Anyway, I just think it is not about a cold shooting night for either team.....but which team harrasses the other the most defensively!!!!!!! sbl

VOLLY, Maybe the reason Greenfield didnt play "their" game was that LC put more defensive pressure on them than they did in the previous meetings.....Maybe the reason Greenfield was "cold" shooting had somethin to do with the tremendous pressure LC put on them.....just my take!!!!! I dont think ya give the other team enough credit....also in your post on the 15a thread you said TT won bc of better record.....incorrect she is the better player...teams have to gameplan to stop her just as they do the others.....and TT is not just a great "athlete" it is offensive to say she is a great athlete and not a great basketball player as well......she would only be half the player she is if not for the DISCIPLINE, WORK ETHIC, AND ATTITUDE of not just TT but all the LC girls......and...TT will be a great one because her head is on straight...she makes excellent grades....student government....etc., etc......TT and the rest of LC girls basketball work as hard and prolly harder than most in the state at being great basketball players.....when the season is over....they will play travel ball and work at their craft ALL spring and summer!!!!! So, give credit where it is due!!!!! Dont throw those little DISCLAIMER'S in there such as "IF" she can keep her head straight....btw....did you see the academic all americans LC girls had....2 out of 3 seniors with the third barely missing it........the rest of the girls have the same type of grades!!!!!! Last, a question......why is it that when it is a player from Greenfield, Gleason, or Bradford are they a great basketball player....while if the girl is from Lake County.....she is just a great athlete......or when a team from Gleason, Bradford, or Greenfield is good the coach is a great coach....but if the team from Lake County is good they have got a bunch of "athletes".........just food for thought....VOLLY it seems from some of your posts...past and present.....that this seems to be your mindset....... sbl

What were the scores for 15a games tonite?????? sbl

The best awards of the night were not district champions or runner up or mvp or all district......best awards were to those seniors who made academic all american!!!!!!!!!! To play athletics and keep a cumalative grade of 93 or better is outstanding.......LC had 2 out of 3 seniors get this award......and the third was just a couple points off......Also the rest of the team has top notch grades as well....LC doesnt just have outstanding female "athletes"......they have outstanding female basketball players, students, and young people with great character!!!!!!!! I can only hope my daughters, and son grow up to be these kind of of young persons!!!!! Congrats to all the girls from 14a who got this award!!!!!! sbl
