5th quarter action 🎬
We will see what the Coaches send it to generate a story or not.
Tuesday night 🌙 recap from our visit to the Cougars Den as both Middle School 🏫 teams fall behind early, rally to win the second half before falling short at Pulaski County.
Darian Brown and Kris Richardson kicked off another busy stretch of Hoops Tuesday night 🌙 by hopping on the Bus 🚌 and driving over to Dublin for contests with Pulaski County Middle School.
Wednesday night they will play at Galax and then return to The Hill Thursday night to host Floyd County.
Both teams fell behind early as the Cougars jumped out to a HOT start and its worth noting that the Cavaliers won the second half of both contests!
The Girls played first so we will start there.
Carroll County… 4. 2. 2 7 – 15
Pulaski County… 8 11 3 4 – 26
CCMS won the bonus period, 8-7
Scoring ‘ McGhee 8, Dalton 3, Combs 2, Robinson 2.
The difference in the game was the Cougars #1 Miss Hartley. She scored 11 points in the opening hall and finished up with a game high 15. Defensively, she blocked a number of shots and altered many more.
Briley McGhee scored all six of the Lady Cavaliers first half points and finished up with a team high eight. Natalie Dalton, Reagan Combs and Kierra Robinson each scored in the second half.
One of the bright spots for Richardson was that his defense held the Cougars to just seven points after the break.
Offensively, Carroll County dropped eight points in the extra time with Maggie Branch accountin for five.
Note – I now understand the scoring process in the bonus time as each time a team is whistled for a foul the opponent is awarded one point. It was a treat to hear such an impressive young man 👨 announcing the game last night and he explained that to us.
Last time against Galax, the Lady Cavaliers had four good looks in the final minute to tie or take the lead before falling by three points.
Boys 👦 :
Carroll County 4 5. 6 13 – 28
Pulaski County. 19 11. 8 5 – 43
CCMS – Barr 14, Mitchell 3, Reed 3, Millaway 2, Poe 2, Hill 2, Stanovcak 2
While the Girls were dealing with one dominant player, the Boys were up against a two headed monster 👹. Liam Flores (13 points ) and Brayden Grubb (15 points ) at times looked like they could be playing Varsity sooner than later.
The duo matched the 28 points scored by the Cavaliers with Grubb hitting three 3-pointers in the early stages.
Gibson Barr was battling every step of the way and led Carroll County with 14 points. Six other Cavs dented the scorebook with Grant Reed and Ben Mitchell each adding three points for Coach Brown.
As was the case in the Girls contest, CCMS won the second half 19-13 behind the combination of Barr scrapping on the offensive end and the team defense picking up the intensity.
Galax – Carroll County Boys 👦 was a remarkable game last week on The Hill and there’s hope that it can be the same type of battle tonight.
In the bonus period the Cougars won 11-7 with Daniel Bouldin ( 4 points ) and Dane Austin ( 3 points ) scoring for the Cavaliers.
I will circle 🔵 back to add any thoughts that the Coaches have after they see the Post 📫.
It’s time for a WAY too early edition 😴 of the Morning 🌄 Brew and it includes Beth Bouldin checking in with her captures of the Northern Lights !!
Today is set to be day 3 for tryouts as the Varsity coaches work on creating their rosters for the Winter. We should be seeing the results by the end of the week.
Proverbs 12:28 In the way of righteousness is life: and in the pathway thereof there is no death.
Still have game stories to create for the Middle School games last night over at Pulaski County. They will include a number of pics from Beth Bouldin.
Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌!
