White County and Warren County, the refs are lopsided and the fans are on the players from start to finish...This year will be tough when people have to come to our house and play our boys....It also be tough on the road because we will be there in full force just as if it was our home court...

Pickett Co....I've seen so many big schools come and and get blown out over the years. In 1995 Ezell Harding came in for a substate and were #3 or #4 in the state and was a huge favorite but Pickett won by 14 or 16. MBA came in with a great team and lost about 3 years ago. Victory Chritian, NC came in unbeaten and with a team of high school All Americans. They were pointing and laughing at the "little" Pickett Co. team. When Pickett was up by 30 coach Smith put in the freshman and still won by about 16. College Heights came in 2 years ago, laughing too...halftime was something like 54-8, Pickett Co. They were supposed to play the next day against Celina (it was a tournament) and they didn't come back. Last year Ezell Harding was blown out again at Pickett. Unaka, last year's state champions lost by 23 at Pickett last year. They play a lot of AAA and AA schools and very raely lose at home. Pickett has great fan support.

Some of the places I didn't like playing were Trenton (felt like I was in crater, the band strategically placed right behind visitor's bench and good student section), and South Fulton because the court feels like it is miles away from the bleachers so it feels like it is about 20 feet to big each way and the crowd was always rowdy.

Greenfield used to be a really tough place to get a win until the fans became "fair weather" fans. It still is pretty tough but only because the players make it that way.
