There are a few things you just don't do in life. You don't go golfing in a lightning storm. You don't take a bath with a toaster. You don't say yes when your wife asks "does this make me look fat?" And you don't spike the ball after you get a foul called on you when your up 40 points and then have words for the ref.

 

I will say that it sounds like this ref had a quick trigger. Probably too quick. But all that could have been avoided had she just not shown herself. That simple.

What kind of foul did they call and this is a huge loss for SH.

I wasn't there in person, so take all this with a grain of salt:

 

About 3 minutes left, SH up 35-40ish? Seymour player drives, they call a ticky-tack foul on Tarter. She somehow gets the ball, and spikes it softly, bounces it, I'm not exactly sure. Ref may have been wanting to be noticed. Somehow she got the ball from the offensive player; so it just doesn't seem like it could be a split second, knee jerk reaction. Anyway, the ref T's her up. She the says something to the ref, and she gets her 2nd. I don't know what she said, haven't a clue.

 

But I don't care if you say "you've called a wonderful game, sir." When you get a technical called on you, you keep your mouth shut, walk away, and let your coach handle it.

Not good and this time of year you have to be smart and this hurts SH bad.

Yes the first T I see but not the second she ask what did I do he calls another yes she should be under control but so should the ref there was know showing him up or nothing you just don't call 2 ts in 5 second unless as a ref your looking for it

I agree she probably shouldn't have been in the game at that point but I'm not sure what the situation was, but I am sorry to hear that becuase she is a great girl and basketball player and I'm not sure if she has a reputation of getting Techs or why the ref would have to eject her but it seems like it was emotion on her part and probably on the ref's part and I'm not sure what she said but this is sad all the way around for her, her teammates, and the Science Hill fans, hopefully they can overcome the adversity and make it to State because it won't be the same without them there, they are one of the top teams in TN and should be there to compete. Good Luck

Wow. A near lock for the state tournament is now going to have to try to survive a Region semi-final. Tarter is the key piece of Science Hill's team. She controls the game from the point, penetrates to the basket at will, and sets her teammates up for easy shots. Lyon is a great player and Gregory is very good, but neither are primary ball handlers. The other Lady Toppers are solid, but primarily role players. Winning a Regional semi-final against a very good Morristown West team will be much more difficult now. If the Lady Toppers can pull that win out, they will be no guarantee to win the Region final without Tarter either. The road to Murfreesboro just got significantly more difficult for this outstanding team. We will now see who steps up and if the Lady Toppers can rally and survive this.

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
