Last Saturday afternoon Carroll County High School Boys 👦 Basketball 🏀 defeated a tough Cave Spring team to improve to a perfect 10-0 on the season.
Led by unselfish offense and harassing defense, Head Coach Anthony Barnes was leading a team that was playing with confidence. The question was about who would be the team that could possibly derail the Hype Train 🚂 (Thanks, Dr.Pepper).
Sadly, Coach Barnes finally met his match as his Cavaliers went 0-4 this week. The team had no answer against a familiar foe – Mother Nature. The team had three games on the schedule on Monday, Tuesday and Friday (@ Glenvar) ➕ they took a second run at hosting Galax on Thursday.
The sudden backlog of games to be made up between now and mid- February is the kind of things that will add grey hair to the head of CCHS Athletic Director, Kevin DeHaven. Especially when you realize that the Varsity Boys 👦 is just one of several teams that compete in the Winter season.
There’s no different answer as to when the Senior Six will get to resume their version of their ” Last Dance ” but I’m sure they are hoping to not face Mother Nature again in the coming weeks. See, Mom has Game and doesn’t mess around.
The games with Alleghany and Glenvar are district contests and will be a priority to reschedule. The Home and Home versus Galax is just good clean fun that we hope will still happen 🙏
Don’t forget that the JV team hasn’t played in forever and they would like to play too !
