Why do we care about this game ? Ryan Phillips is an up and coming young Coach and belongs to a fine family 👪 Tree 🌳 of Paul Nester. This is the first time that Ryan Phillips has held the position of Head Coach at the High School level.

Game 3 of 7 that we care about is being played in a Gymnasium where cell phones 📵 go to die. Hailey Cushman and her Cavaliers are 9 – 5 on the season. Tonight they played at Patrick County High School in Stuart. The Cougar Den has minimal to no cellphone coverage so I will be dependent upon hearing from someone later.
Cushman is in year 2 of working with Howard Mayo and Coach does a tremendous job with her troops. This is important because if the Lady Cavaliers are going to regain some of their past glory all roads run through Cushman.
Our Athletic Director, Kevin DeHaven informed us that the Lady Cavaliers won a thrilling 39-35 contest in OT !!!
Head Coach Anthony Barnes and his Cavaliers are hosting Patrick County tonight. The Cavaliers are in the middle of five games in six days…
Patrick County opened with a 10-0 run 🏃♂️ so the Cavs have some ground to make up.
My, oh, My ! Down 10-0, the Cavaliers lead 21 -16 after the opening 8:00 !!!
End of 3rd, Cavs lead 53 -45…

Game #5 of 7 that we care ❤ about is
Our tag line is Everything Duke, UVA and wherever we stay. This explains why we have the level of devotion to ALL Things Carroll County, because for six years now it where we call home.
For the past 3 months, for Medical 🚑 reasons, we have called Southern Utah home. So naturally we support the efforts of both Utah Tech ( St George ) and SUU. Normally we would be watching this one in person but tonight its about a match up here in STG ! #GoT-Birds…Tip was 6:30 Mountain ⛰ Time.

What happens next ? Anthony Barnes will send me his thoughts about his team and the effort that he received.
I will then write ✍ him a game story because he believes his players work hard and their efforts for him belong in a story.
This is year six for us in Laurel Fork and what we do should not be a surprise to anyone out there. We believe that everyone is equal and we challenge ourselves to uphold that thought process each and every day.
The second story that will get written by me will be about Scrappy ! Why, because it is fun and doesn’t require any thoughts from Coach Pierre Curtis. Side note 📝, I would love to here his thoughts one day.
The Boys Junior Varsity game was much closer than the final score reflected. Keep our Boys heading in the right direction, Mr Phillips !
