The above link takes you to the beginning of the story from Thursday night 🌙. Now, as Paul Harvey was famous for saying, ” Here’s the Rest of the Story “
” Considering we had 1 girl miss the game from having strep, others coughing their heads off, 1 broke a finger during the game…..overall we played well. Our defense swamed the ball most of the game. Our offense happened in spurts with a few layups and jumpshots. We have to continue to improve offensively. Very pleased to get the win, the girls really deserved it.”
While I have never had the privilege of meeting Mr Bowman myself, I wanted to add my gratitude 🙏 for his efforts with the new uniforms for our Hoopsters this season.
Apologies for the delay in getting the story completed but when Kris isn’t coaching this group, he’s coaching another group or getting snow of the roads for VDOT.
Building a Story is often a crucial part of the story itself ! Two Moms with Sons on the team can provide me the information required to pen 🖊 a story to show our appreciation for the Coaches, Players and Families.
Once a story has been written, the next step is to circle 🔵 back to the Coach to see if he or she is willing to share their thoughts. This part is always easier when the team wins the game but its equally important to acknowledge the effort on nights 🌙 that the outcome is not the one we hoped for.
Let’s get started by building the Box 📦 Score for the game :
Patrick County MS 11. 12 11 9 – 43
Carroll County MS 9. 10. 12 2 – 33
Cavaliers : Sam Johnson 15, Caleb Hill 11, Trenton Poe 6, Bryce Jackson 1. (33)
***By showing the book 📖, it acknowledges every player on the team.
The first thing about this particular book is the absence of Grant Reed. Never speculate on a reason why, just hope that its something minor and Grant will be back soon.
The score was 34 – 31 entering the final 6:00…
We will stick a pin 📌 in this for a bit. More to follow…
Even after his team ended up on the wrong side of the scoreboard in eleven of its first ball games, Kris Richardson never questioned whether the young Girls he was coaching were moving in the right direction.
Fast Forward to Thursday night against Patrick County and you will find a Lady 👩 Cavalier team that has won four of its last five games ! Defensively, they limited PCMS to just two points after intermission and offensively the team did more than enough to claim another victory.
Open shots for either team were hard to come by, from start to finish.
Patrick County MS 5 2. – 7
Carroll County MS 13 7 – 20
The score is shown by halves instead of quarters for the time being. It’s my understanding that back home we dealt with bad weather overnight and that means that Kris and his fellow VDOT staff will be keeping odd hours until things get back to normal.
We will circle back to finish up this story once we hear from Kris.
Meanwhile, we just received word from Mr DeHaven that ALL seven of the events on the books 📚 for today have been postponed !
Ladies final: 20-7, Cavalier win! Way to go Ladies!
Four out of Five in the “W ” column !!

Safe travels home everyone, back on the court next week with CCMS hitting the road to Radford, the boys tip-off first at 5pm. Lady Cavs take the court at the conclusion of the boy’s game.
It’s always a great day to be a Cavalier! Keep balling yall! 💙🩶
Thank You Beth Bouldin !!!
We could have labeled it a quadruple header as the Duke University Women play their first game of the season without us in the building.
Another Top #5 opponent in Louisiana State University awaits.
Thank You to Samantha Reed for taking the time to provide me the Middle School Boys book 📖 and before long, Kris Richardson will do the same. We will be able to compile full stories by the A.M. !
Duke opens with an amazing 17-3 run 🏃♂️
End of 1st – Duke 24, LSU 20 ! Most of 14 point lead has been erased but a lead is a lead !
