Elizabethton hoops

[illpete23]

I'm not a 'Betsy fan, but D-B is skeered. Skeered to death about being shown up by ANYBODY in ANYTHING. That's the way these larger schools operate, being on tops by playing not playing the better teams. Skeered, that's the word.

Betsys depth will catch up with them...especially with Brown out...I dont think their role players can keep stepping up when Besty is in foul trouble....All the pressure is on Besty to win...in there own gym...undefeated in the conferece 2 years....all ready in the region...There could be a let down game in the district.

[Guest BBall12]

If they have a let down in the district that would not be the end of the world. All I want is a win in the region championship and a win in the sub state.

Elizabethton will have Vince this time but Walter Brown will probably still be out. Should be another great game.

[CoachSH]

This will be a great game. Coach Lacord does a great job. The big defference is that Cliton has not saw vince play.

 

Vince will be the differnce in this game.

[CoachSH]

Good Luck tonight agianst Eriwn. Keep the conference undeffeted alive.

Etown12, I agree that Elizabethton deserves a lot of credit and respect for what they have done. Remember, though, it is not what the pollsters think or say that matters. All that matters are the tournaments. Do it there and you cannot be denied.

 

If polls were what counted Dobyns-Bennett would have a lot more state championships in all sports than they do. Case in point. When I was a freshman in high school they were supposed to have the best team in the state in baseball. We had to play a "play in" game because there were 9 teams in the district (in those days there were no classes, everybody played in the same tournament) to even get in the bracket. We won and got to play the No. 1 seed - Dobyns-Bennett. The problem was they could not hit curve balls and we had one of the best curve ball pitchers around. We beat them 3-2. End of state championship quest against the # 8 seed.

 

The point is it does not matter what you do or what prople think of you in the middle of February that counts, it is what you do the last week of February and in March that counts.

Elizabethton beat Erwin tonight - going undefeated in their conference. Best to you - Cyclones - and good luck in the Clinton Game.

[starman]

Are their any chance that Walter might get to play in the tournaments? I know they were talking about a special brace but I have not heard anything else.

[autkfan]

Walter Brown played last night against Unicoi Co. and he looked pretty good. It was hard to tell that he had any knee problems.

 

They will have everyone for the Clinton game.

I have to admit CHHS72, that was very well put. I am behind you all the way with that statement.
