QUOTE(bigchief @ Mar 2 2007 - 11:05 AM) 826396655[/snapback]Here is another little tidbit slick. Your people wouldn't let us have any basketballs to warm-up with until 15 minutes to go before game time. The rule is 30 minutes on the first game (in this case the only game of the night). It is only 15 minutes if it is between games. Of course they couldn't have given us any to shoot with anyway because your players had them all over in your other gym shooting /blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> (yeah we knew what was going down). /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Nice try. I guess they should have spent more time practicing their free throws over there. /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Isn't it ironic. Don't you think?

 

 

I assume you were not at the Region Tournament meeting. At that meeting, they said that teams could not be on the court with basketballs until 15:00 minutes prior to game time.

No negative crap from me. The first half was as good of a H.S. basketball game I have seen played in a long time. For whatever reason Eagleville was not able to keep up the defensive intensity in the 3rd quarter that they had in the 1st half. Where Eagleville really lost the game was late in the 4th quarter when they had a 3pt lead and on 4 or 5 occassions they missed easy shots around the basket that would have put them up by 5 late in the 4th quarter. Its was an awesome game to watch and congradulations to East Literature for a well played game.Eagleville don't keep your heads down you still can make it to the state. Now as far as the refereeing, yes it was horrible but it pretty much equaled out for both teams. Go Eagles

#2 Those same terrible refs made two of the worst charging calls I have seen in 35 years. Both in your favor in the 2nd half.

 

#3. We had to convince that same officer you speak of not to arrest two of your players for felony assault on several of our inside shots.

 

#4. You are correct that the game should have been over in the 4th. If you had hit your free throws it would have been. Remember how we got the ball back with 13 seconds left to score the tying basket and send it to overtime? We beat you by 10 because we hit ours. 19-25 to be exact.

 

Eagleville played extremely hard. They were well prepared and executed well except for late at the foul line. Little things make all the difference. Lord knows we have lost several games this year due to missed foul shots ourselves. Good luck at Culleoka. Try not to let those rose-colored glasses cloud your vision.

 

 

You dont have be set to take a charge. both instances the players led with the shoulder. And for youngtower, the refs did not decide the game, we did by not hitting free throws and lay-ups.
