Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

All five of our College Hoopsters have the day off today as well.

Vickey Ritchie has announced that we will once again be moving the Special Olympics Basketball Classic with the third date being Sunday, February 22nd. It has to be warmer by then, right ??

Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌

In hopes of filling the void created by consecutive postponements for Anthony Barnes and our Cavaliers, we revisit the Instant Classic that took place on The Hill back on December 3rd…

The Hill – Carroll County High School 🏫 improved to 2-0 on the young season by scoring 33 points in the fourth quarter in their 96 – 95 victory over visiting Fort Chiswell.

Isaiah Easter dropped 15 of his team high 33 points in the record setting 33 point frame. The fact that Easter and his 33 points were a team high versus game high is a testimony to the talent of Super Sophomore Owen Jackson of the Pioneers.

Jackson finished with 52 points after going 27 – 32 from the free throw line. The game was not a one hit wonder for Jackson who now holds the record for fastest player to 1,000 in Virginia High School League history.

How do you outscote an opponent with a player that hangs 50 ➕ on you ? Scoring by committee as the Cavaliers finished the shoot 🔫 out with FIVE players in double figures.

Eleven was a magical number as well for the Cavaliers as Easter scored that number in the firsr, Hayden Jackson matched it in the third quarter while Blake Reed and Freshman Will Motley dropped their 11 in the final frame.

If you like numbers, you will love the fact that the three players not named Easter, each finished with 15 points. Colton Gravley joined the quartet with 13 points.

” 73 free-throws shot tonight between the two teams,” noted Barnes.

Trace Reavis ( 3 points ) and Eli Lark (2 points ) rounded out the scoring for the Cavaliers.

Carroll County was scheduled to host Christiansburg on Monday and Patrick County tonight. Looking to get the road game at James River out of their minds. Instead of playing ball, which comes naturally, the players are trying hard to stay warm and the Coaches are out trying to clear our roads.

Don’t know if this flashback will help but I have to think it can’t hurt…
