4th Qtr -- 3:21 remaining in game. Time-out by MeEachern, after basket, to cut lead to 15pts.

 

Mel 68 --- McE 53

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

 

Melrose is starting to pull away...to much balance for Melrose. McEachern seems to have only 1 or 2 guys that are ballin'

 

Chris Jones 25 pts--Melrose.

 

Golden has around the same, for McE.

Final:

 

Memphis Melrose 83 -- McEachern, GA 62

 

Leading scorers:

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

Melrose:

 

C. Jones -- 32pts

A. Thomas -- 18 pts (all in 2nd-half)

B. Parks and N. Rucker -- 14pts each

 

 

McEachern: Golden -- 30 or 32pts.

 

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

 

Note:

 

Joe Jackson (Guard) of White Station and Adonis Thomas (Forward) of Melrose get all the publicity but, make no mistake about it, PG Chris Jones of Melrose is equally talented! He is the real-deal, a Bona Fide Division-1 level PG!!! As a matter of fact, I strongly suggest that Chris Jones is the KEY to Melrose's success! That was the case all last year. It appears to be the case AGAIN, this year.

(7:35pm CST) .....Breaking news, from the Radio Announcers:

 

They said that McEachern has opted NOT to play in the consolation game, tomorrow!

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

 

They said that New Rochelle, as a result, has been chosen to play in the 3rd-place game.

 

The announcers then discussed McEachern's sour-grapes, classless decision.... They stated that McEachern will likely NEVER be invited to the Arby's classic, EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree 100 percent. Chris Jones is the reason Melrose beats Southwind last year! He's just as good a scorer as Jackson, maybe even better, and may have a better motor defensively. Even though Rivals has him ranked I would say Chris Jones, along with Darrien Gray(#15) from Southwind are the most underrated players in the city.

McEachern Follow up:

 

The announcers are now saying that McEachern, GA would not have played in EITHER game tomorrow-- The Championship game OR the Consolaton game...because of some sort of Georgia State rule, relating to the number of games that a team is allowed to play!

 

The announcers then surmised that McEachern's should NEVER have even bothered to ENTER the Arby's tournament....that maybe their coach never figured his squad would never make it (i.e. win) that deep into the tournament.

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

 

Halftime: Fayetville, AR 23 -- Greater Atlanta 20

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

 

Winner plays Melrose for Arby's Classic Championship.

 

Loser plays New Rochelle (according to the announcers), in consolation game.

 

 

TraderB out!

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
