Well said by play4fun.  Best team won but I thought Pickett got worst of it, especially early.  Clay county guard,number 20, was difference in my opinion.  I would to know how it would of come out had technicals not occured but I still think Clay would of won.  Even before the technicals Pickett girls seemed to be frustrated by officials.  Maybe rematch down road...

The head of officials is from clay county. His wife was one of the officials. He may live in McMinnville now. But he is from clay. 

So the head of officiating is from Clay County and his wife was a ref in a district tournament game that Clay played in? And this is the same game Pickett coach/some fans were ejected from?

And then don’t forget. The other guy (Rick Shoulders) is another head officials for the area. His daughter was one of the officials.

The biggest problem was that Pickett is used to getting the calls when they drive in. These officials apparently weren’t aware of that. The tall blonde ref is one of the best and fairest in the area. Pickett was driving in and taking poor shots expecting a foul that didn’t occur. Maybe a couple of bad calls but then again there always are. Not as bad as described.

Every year come tournament time officials get tighter and dont call as many touch fouls. They basically let them play a little more. Alot of teams,coaches,and fans rely on those calls for thier team to be competitive aka "free throws." When it don't happen and the point margin gap increases all heck breaks out.Good players are supposed to avoid contact with moves, head fakes, Jab steps ,step back jumpers, not head down bull in ring drives . Defense has a right for position too, moving or not moving, they can't just be bulled over.

    • QUICK UPDATE -  First, I see a lot of wrestling names that I recognize on that GoFundMe.  THANK YOU so much for helping this family.   After the long surgery on Sunday morning to repair his neck, Jacob suffered a collapsed lung.  Sometimes this happens after long surgeries.  They had to put him on a ventilator to get his breathing back on track.  He came off the vent on Monday morning and they put a BIPAP on him to help control his breathing.  As of today, Thursday, the BIPAP came off and he is breathing well on his own.  He is working towards drinking a glass of water and hopefully eating some solid food at some point in the near future. Jacob can "feel" when someone touches his legs, but there is still no movement.  His parents are beginning to prepare for him to be moved to the Shepherd Center in the next few days.  He will be there in Atlanta for 30-45 days.  Im sure he will receive excellent treatment. Please continue to pray for healing for him and if you are so moved, please contribute to the gofundme link above to help in any way you can.  The go fund me is doing well, but this is going to be a very long road for these guys Im afraid.. Thanks again! Sells
