Game recognizing game as Vickey Ritchie wasn’t the only group departing from Hillsville Elementary School this morning – our Winter Guard program is set to compete today in Tennessee !

Vickey Ritchie and our Special Olympics Basketball program are packing up for our trip to Lexington (VMI), and when she noticed that Nikki Anderson was on her way to a competition in Johnson City, she framed the moment from a distance to not disturb their efforts.

Godspeed on the journey and Best of Luck in the competition today !

Thank You, Coach Vickey !

Day #2 of the Women’s Basketball 🏀 Sweet 16 will get underway just past Noon, and there are ties 👔 to each of the four games !

Louisville – two ties here. Member of the Atlantic Coast Conference and the school my oldest brother graduated 🎓 from !

Kentucky is coached by Mr Kenny Brooks, former JMU and Virginia Tech University leader. Was able to watch Kenny first hand for years up in Harrisonburg and nothing but love and respect for his methods.

Dawn Staley is the All-Time Goat 🐐 of UVA women’s Basketball 🏀 and has advanced our game by leaps and bounds over the past decade. Even hangs out with the Aflac Duck and Coach K. If there’s one more reason to pull for them it’s Travis Osborne being a fan.

In the nightcap, we have the Hoos of UVA. ACC, institute that our youngest graduated 🎓 from ( as a teenager, way smart ). ➕️ I borrow from their graphics on a regular basis to promote Carroll County High School

Don’t know how many of today’s four will advance, but it’s cool 😎 to have a rooting interest x 4.

Let’s play ball !

Media TO – Cards pitching a shutout, 7-0

It’s a great day to be a Golden Bear 🐻 as WVU-T makes the trek up to Shawnee State for the first of a 3 game set. Two games are set for Sunday afternoon after the weather tweaked the schedule 📅.

Shawnee State is in the hunt for the top spot, while the Golden Bears 🐻 continue to chase an invite to the post-season tournament.

West Virginia Tech University will look to break a trend this weekend, and Portsmouth, Ohio, is as good of a place as any to build on the mid-week sweep of Davis and Elkins.

There is still plenty of time for WVU-T to climb up the ladder 🪜in the River States conference standings, but there is a sense of urgency to this weekend.

Four weekends remain in the regular season following this one, so it’s a great time to take care of business on the Diamond 💎.

First Pitch is set for 3pm !
