For the Final Eight Hours of Today its ALL about Elijah Cox & The FCA All-Star Game !

Not everyone out there has the luxury of jumping in the Cars and driving to Blountsville, Tennessee today as I have but I invite anyone that reads this today to share a Positive thought for Elijah.

This is open to Coaches, teammates, classmates and anyone that simply enjoyed watching this impressive young Man represent our School on the Basketball Court and now on the Tennis Courts.

Tonight will be the final time that Mr. Cox will put on his Carroll County Basketball jersey and I will try to cover it to the best of my ability. That is how Elijah played the game each night – to the Best of his Ability.

Looks like the Place !
