IN2VOLS Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Ooltewah Exits the post season tonight, no one had more guts than the owls, playing a man down with everything against them. I want to wish the best of luck to my players from this year. I have never had such great friends and teamates who always had my back. People will jump all over us on here, but let it slide, whats done is done. And i truley love every single one of your boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zizou159 Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 THE REFS BLEW SO BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't try to pin the loss on the refs. You got beat, its that simple. It sounds like you all played very hard and you should be proud of that but tonight wasn't your night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtnman Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Ooltewah did not dominate the game. It was a very evenly played game. Cleveland had several very close chances in the second half. Both of Cleveland's goals in injury time were questionable. Not sure about the timing but they hit the back of the net. As far as the other calls, it probably went both ways. Ooltewah had a great season, unfortanatly all the talk comes back to you when you lose. I think both teams showed alot of heart and played hard to the end. Golden was all over the place until the final horn. I was impressed with his tenacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LH10 Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 I didn't notice Golden as much as i thought i would. yes he is good and has good touches but i didn't think he was much better than the rest of the team. The refs did "blow" but as mtnman said it was fairly even as far as calls. The fact that the owls were down a man was their falt and no one elses the refs had nothing to do with that call any ref would have probably made the same call. As far as guts and game goes it was very equal and i think that was proven by the length of the game. well played on both parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinkerbell69 Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 (edited) yeah the game i heard was HORRIBLE, i heard the refs weren't calling fair. I hearad that Matt Lowe got a red card. Well Ooltewah you can't always get the best of refs. You guys had a great season. Edited May 19, 2004 by tinkerbell69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drsoccer Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 At what point in the game did Ooltewah go down a man? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnman Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 in the first 10 minute overtime after scoring the go ahead goal (3-2). Injury time was key. Watching Coach Winchester, it didn't look like the refs watch was working well. I think in one of the OTs there was no time added and the ref extended the game anyway. This is an interesting discussion. It seems that many refs dont blow the whistle when their watchgoes off, they wait for a good oppurtunity to stop play. I have never reffed so I have no idea. The ref stopped play last night on a long ball into the Cleveland box but allowed alot of extra time at other times. I don't think the ref was biased just made some bad decisions that happened to go against Ooltewah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohsref23 Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 all i can say about last night was it just wasnt meant to be. and i wish the rest of my boys the best of luck next season as i and the rest of the seniors move on. it was a privilege to play for a good group of guys like yall and i will be back next year in hte stands.

OldSkoolBalla Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Yeah 7:30 of stoppage was added in the first half after only 2 cards. Supprising...Also questionable that the half was stopped immediately after Cleveland scored their goal on a questionable PK. Their 3rd goal came in a similar situation at the end of the 2nd 10 min. overtime on another questionable call. Yes refs stink, but the loss cannot be placed on them. If the game was played 5 more times, Owls win 4 of the 5 easily. Too bad it's single game series... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stayNskool Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 Great season boys... you proved all your doubters wrong all season ... way to play and I ahve no doubt in my mind that were the calls to have gone even all the way across the board, ya'll would have won it... Cleveland won and congratulations to ya'll good luck in sectionals... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Commando Posted May 20, 2004 Report Share Posted May 20, 2004 I'm having some trouble understanding how anyone was proven wrong. Did Ooltewah defeat some quality teams that I am not aware of? And did they not get put out in one of the weakest regions in the state? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
