Oak Ridge Wildcats 22 - 23

[bounder]

It's was bad last night, we couldn't anything to fall, not even free throws. Just a good night for the Blueraiders and a bad night for the Wildcats.

Oh Well

WILDCAT PRIDE

Well Oak Ridge beat Campbell County 56-40 last night.

[bounder]

Oops my bad the girls won 56-40 the boys won 85-61

Good wins by the boys and girls.  Both teams were short-handed, but played well.

Super exciting game tonight against West, even though there wasn’t much scoring. There was some serious defense being played out there by both teams tonight, and both teams laid it all on the line. Ray Ray Watson by the time he’s a senior will be All State for Oak Ridge. You heard it here first. Really good win against a solid West team. Big game versus Karns Tuesday night. Karns is very talented. Should be a doozy.

Sevier County is good , they'll be a tuff draw for most teams. We've played them twice and they gave us we wanted and more.

Very well coached group that can shoot.

Karns really blew this game. That #11 getting a technical at that time was a game loser. OR hit like 8-9 FTs in the last couple of minutes and as always Ray gets to the hoop at will when he wants.

Karns is a really talented team, they just messed around and gave that one away, IMO. That huge guy is a sight.

Oak Ridge needs to start the game faster. They continually get behind in the first quarter and have been able to recover so far. The development of #11 (Ray) has significantly improved the offense since Christmas break. Offense is much more potent with a point guard that can face up and drive around defender. 

Any idea what has happened to #35 (Comer)? Hasn't played since first Karns game.

Karns isn't going away. Very talented team. They will be in the district finals.

Ray Ray has improved so much and got this team back on track with Scott out.Scott has kinda of been in a slump since the injury but as he gets back to normal we should get even better.Add that in with an improved Ray Ray and we could make a decent run a State.Comer is dealing with lingering injury that hopefully gets right soon but its up in air right now.We really need him back vs the best teams

And the other tall Center, too. He’s improved leaps and bounds.

Karns is real good. West is tough, too. Comer got a bad concussion and apparently is done.

Shamar Green. Never played BB until last year, he's rapidly improving. He and Cooper Williams are going to be a heck of a low post combo next 2 seasons.
