Congratulations to the Morristown West Lady Trojans--ranked number 1 in the first AP poll of the season. As we all know there is a lot of basketball yet to be played!
The Lady Trojans certainly represented well, coming home with a 2-1 record. Update on Sidney Goins: nothing confirmed, will see the doctor next week. She was feeling much better yesterday. It was awesome to be able to hear all the games live. Thanks to everyone involved!
Yes the Ladies' Classic is a great tournament, but I agree, how can Morristown West pass up such an opportunity? These young ladies have worked very hard to be able to go to this tournament, it will be the exeperience of a lifetime. Life is about so much more than basketball, these girls will be able to travel across the country and see and do things they may never have the opportunity to do again. It will be great national exposure for all involved. I can't imagine any program would pass up an invitation to this tournament if they could raise the money to take their team. I can assure you these girls will represent the IMAC and the state of TN with class. Be happy for them! Good Luck Lady Trojans!
Thank you for your insight and most of all for your support of your team, and doing it in such a classy manner. I agree with most everything you said. As we go into the region I wish all the IMAC teams the best of luck. You will miss these days more than you know, I have been there, as my daughter graduated a few years ago. It is a fun ride if you don't let some people take the FUN out of it!
Does anyone have the exact brackets for the region tournament? I thought The winner of the West game would play the winner of the Greeneville game on Mon. in the semis. Is this not correct?
Very good post--while i will be pulling for West i think it will be a great game and i certainly wish CC the best after tonight. If West doesn't play better than they did Friday night they won't win. I too hope for no injuries and consistent officiating!
That IS why they call it a TEAM! You win as a team, you lose as a team, and you are punished as a team. These girls can pull together and rally to finish the season on a positive note or they can point fingers and blame others and completely fall apart. Sounds like the new administration is doing a good job.
I understand the teammates didn't try to stop it and it was videoed and put on youtube. Hard life lesson for those not involved but I admire the administration for making this tough decision.
I understand there was some kind of confrontation between players. Is this correct? Come on Greeneville, give us the facts. I can only imagine the rumors flying on this one!
Good job! I would switch Fanney and Buda, first and second team, and I think you have to have Kelly Smith on there. Just my opinion. I have seen every team play at least twice.
I was told yesterday that mono had been confirmed but that she would suit up. I just can't imagine that the doctor would release her to play. Mono can be so dangerous because of the danger of a ruptured spleen.
Congratulations to Taylor Hall and to all her teammates who helped her to become a finalist for Miss Basketball. She couldn't have done it withoou you!
Does any one have info on Shannon Depew. I didn't see her name in the box score against Heritage on Friday night. Just wondered if she might really be sick.
