Yes! Two big intense games at UTM tonight both decided at the very end by one point!!

If both losing teams had made their free throws down the stretch they would have won!

You are right…free throws win championship type games!

And if both winning teams would of made some of theirs earlier it wouldn’t of been that close….  
 

What a game by Peabody! Dominated thru 3 quarters but got a little tight in the 4th quarter and let south Fulton back into it. Peabody never game up and hit the game winner at the buzzer! Unbelievable game! Congrats to Coach Hart and the Lad Tide!! Go get the Region Championship!

Yep. Last night (Sat Feb 25, 2023) a kid from Chester County sank 2 free throws with 0.2 left in the game to tie it up. They wound up winning in OT over Liberty.

It was a thriller!

Anybody see the Ripley/Crockett County game Friday night? Scoreboard shows 43-41 win for Crockett. Ripley is not good. On paper, that should’ve been Crockett by 25+

Huntingdon is playing Gibson Co and 1 ref that has it out against Huntingdon every time.

Tonight showed what separates GC and Westview from the other teams in the area.  They both have a second option that can go for 20-25 and win a game.  Huntingdon just couldn’t beat the top 2.  Still a very good team and a lot to be proud of.

Proud of the Fillies on a great season.  Fillies will be very good next season also.  Fillies did a great job on Micah tonight and held her in check for the most part.  Some very questionable calls took Kee out with foul trouble and she could never get in a rhythm.  Fillies controlled the first half but could never pull away and were only up one at the half.

i watched all four of their games. Biggest difference in these two teams is Gibson County has been a little bit better poised as far as handling pressure than Huntingdon and I think Gibson County has been a little more disciplined guarding Huntingdon than they have guarding us. Gibson County I thought attacked the rim a bunch last night and drew contact a bunch. Early in the game Gibson County didn’t get the calls and as the game wore they got them. I will agree all four games were not called consistently David Wilkins is a great coach and has Huntingdon on the right path. I like their team a lot. Honestly my stress level before each one of our games has been to the max. Sad that one of these teams had to be eliminated and I think they were a team that would cause problems in Murfreesboro as well. I thought their crowd had and the hype of the game had us rattled a bit in the first half. Huntingdon was up 5 and had three or four possessions up 5 where they could have really took control of the game and that was with Kee out. Crazy do or die game that we are very happy to come out on top. I know it has to be extremely hard coaching against father/son. Congratulations to Huntingdon in a great year.

Good luck to Peabody. Y’all are on the road as well so I guess we will all compare notes about midnight.
