Liberty had a great year. The only team they lost to was Bolivar and then finally getting over the hump going down the stretch really says something for this team. This is still a young program with many young and special kids. As long as their are no major changes, Liberty should be right back here come next season. Great job!

I was there to watch the Single A game, but stayed for the first half of this game. What happened? Did Liberty just play awesome? Did Mitchell fall apart? Did someone big foul out?

Bed2i,

 

It was a combination of things.

 

1) Liberty started making shots in the 2nd half.

 

2) In the 2nd-half, Mitchell got away from what got it the big 1st-half lead: Thad Young on the low block. He was unstoppable....Inexplicably, Mitchell simply stopped putting Thad on the block....Your best offensive weapon does not need to be playing point guard, under any circumstances, IMO.

 

3) Poor coaching Mitchell (see #2 above, also) -- At the start of the 3rd Qtr, Liberty came out on fire. Mitchell was clearly out of sync. Yet, NOT ONCE did Mitchell ever call time out (they had plenty of T.O's available) to stop the "bleeding." IMO, this is where Mitchell lost the game. .....BTW, this is the exact same thing that happened to Mitchell when it wound up losing to nationally-ranked Dematha.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

All these things add up to a heart-breaking loss for Mitchell.

      Asking for prayers?

      By Nontypical · Posted

      Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned.

      West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome.

      Where does DCA go?

      By BingoLong · Posted

      I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.

      I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
