Tonight I get to bust out my Math Skills as I try to count backwards from 39 to 0 !!!

Later today Marc Motley will have his team on the floor in the Gymnasium on The Hill to play the Floyd County Buffalo🐃es.

 Alyssa Ervin was in the student section at the Boys 👦 Basketball game which tells me that she has shaken free from illness and will be ready to lace up her sneakers 👟 once again!

 With home games both tonight and Friday night its inevitable that the Carroll County High School scoring record will change hands here in the next 72 hours. We want to once again pay homage to Erin Gibson for both setting the record and having it to herself for such an extended period of time.

The window of time that the passing of the torch 🔦 takes place is in between late in the third quarter tonight and the end of the first half on Friday night 🌙. Either way it will take place right where it should, in her Gymnasium on The Hill. It will happen in front of a large crowd either night with the Wednesday game being against Floyd County and Friday night being part of a Varsity twin bill.

 Floyd County is without a doubt the team that is most willing to play right at us and if they can stay close in the contest it will give Ervin a greater opportunity to play longer tonight. The health of the rest of the team as the recover from a lengthy combination of injuries and illness will fact in as well.

The Red Hot Junior Varsity team will open the show tonight at 5:30 pm with the Varsity Girls 👧 to follow roughly 20 minutes later.

Ladies & Gentlemen, we are on the cusp of Carroll County Hoops history. Its so close that you can almost feel it in the air. The level of excitement is why I’m awake ⏰ at 4am, so I can work on my countdown routine….

39, , 37,35,,33,,31,29, 27,,,25 – 22 (she just swished a 3-pointer)……..

 Come out to The Hill tonight and count with me. But if you do please consider getting there early enough to cheer on our Junior Varsity because Kayla Young and Friends are playing really well as of late.

20, 17, 15, 14,13 (They fouled here), 11, 9, 6 (from deep again), 4, 2 and 00000000 !!!!!!!!!!
