Interesting trio of games tonight.

 

Greeneville should take the victory. May be one of those games where free-throws in the final minute widens the margin.

 

Will be interesting to see how Jefferson County rebounds from Friday night. Heard and read here that they played better down the stretch.

 

Cocke and West is an interesting game. West will be on their fourth game in six days. If this was 5-on-5 and unlimited fouls, it would be another story. Feel that West is too deep for Cocke County and the current drop off from 6 to 7 to 8 for the Lady Red is just too drastic to compete in the conference at the moment. However, if Cocke County can shoot better, they can win any game they are in. Right now, they just arent shooting well - averaging around 2 three's a game and missing a lot of gimmies in the paint. To cap that off, they are struggling from the free-throw line. They left 11 points on the court with missed free-throws in a 14-point loss.

Greeneville beat Cherokee 60 - 35.

 

Dickson had 26 for Greeneville. By the time Dickson went out Cherokee had only scored four more points than her. Greeneville played their typical tough defense. Neither of the three for Cherokee could get into a rythm.

 

The sophmores for Greeneville are starting to get in a flow with the other players. Greeneville will have a chance this weekend to defend their championship in the tournament held in Bristol.

 

It seems like the IMAC will have another crazy season with the way the other games are going. I know that Jeff County beat Morristown East in three overtimes.

Jeff County-East score was 81-80 in 3OT.

Game also apparently featured a power outage.

 

So that has Greeneville at 2-0 and the field at 1-1 and Cherokee 0-2...Picks right up where everything left off last year.

 

Cocke County goes to East, Cherokee goes to Jefferson County, West/Greeneville will not play - due to Greeneville's girls in the Bristol Tourney. That "make-up" will come on Saturday Feb 9th. The rest of the conference is finished on Feb. 1, with a built in make-up date on the weekend of Feb 8th/9th.

No stats in front of me from the Jeff/East game

 

Haley Nelson was the difference in the game for Jeff. 20 or so over her 29 points came from the fourth on I think. She hit two free throws with a second or two left on the clock to force OT, then hit a 3pointer from several feet behind the arc to force the second one. East hit a three at the buzzer to force the third.

 

64 fouls in the game, 92 free throw attempts.

 

I dont remember about east, but Jeff County had five girls foul out, including Potts and Elliott in the fourth quarter. Finished the game with three fresh and a soph on the court

Cocke County won tonight but may have lost Courtney Lewis for an extended period. She has a knee injury - the x-ray was negative, but very a significant sprain at best.

 

The Lady Red survivied without Buda and Lewis for a good part of the 2nd half and Prewitt did not play for violating team rules. We built a big enough lead in the 3rd quarter (w/ both Lewis and Buda) to survive the 4th. Allie Spouse made several contributions. Suggs and Lloyd both played well down the stretch. Neither team shot free throws well.

 

The 2nd quarter was not pretty. The Lady Red won the 2nd quarter 5-1.

 

Goins is the real deal - gets off her shot quickly. Fouls hampered her tonight. Smith shoots the eyes out. West is much better than this summer. I believe that they could be tough by February. They went a whole quarter and a half without a basket and still had they made free throws at 65-70% they probably win.

 

If we shoot like we did in the 2nd Quarter tonight and East scores like they apparently did tonight, Friday could be ugly.

I agree. A very exciting game even when the lights went out. All the girls on both teams played with a lot of heart and it's tough for either team to have to lose this type of game. The PG for Jeff stepped her game up in the 2nd half and finished strong when they needed it. Congratulations to both teams.

Jeff County, Morristown East. It's a shame either team had to lose this game. It was a game of attrition and heart and both teams showed all they had and left it all on the floor. Jeff County showed me why they're call a team last night. When you see the starters in foul trouble or fouled out on the bench cheering on their teammates on like I saw last night. Everyone stepped up. These girls hang out with one another both on and off the court and I see it paying off big for them down the road. When they made a mistake their teammates were there to picked them up pat them on the back and go back to at the task at hand. It wasn't a perfect game by any means as both teams tried their best to blow the game several times. Free throws and turnovers still seemed to be a problem especially after they would get the lead but this team WILL NOT QUIT. I would like to see that stats on those two catagories If anyone has them. Rebounding and defense seemed much better as I thought they held their own against a much bigger team. Still all in all it was a great and nerve racking game to watch. I think the lights going out just gave the fans a chance to catch their breath. Big congrats to THE LADY PATROITS!!!!!!! Rome wasn't built in a day, but the construction crew has went to work. WE BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!!

barb is too busy riding this Greeneville football team to the end /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

 

Hopefully my Cherokee girls can turn their ridiculous amounts of game experience to W's this year.

 

 

 

Are you supporting them or criticizing them? Using the word "ridiculous" is pretty harsh don't you think? When will we all learn that support is much better than criticism...

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
