Only 18 more days until The Classic is set to take place at Hillsville Elementary School 🏫.[Sunday, February 22nd]
Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌
As the second round of weather is upon us now, we already know that the Wrestling has been moved.
Elijah Cox and Randolph College are slated to play up at Exit 313 in Winchester today. Shenandoah University is set to welcome the Wildcats.
Over in the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee, we have some dedicated Carroll County Volleyball 🏐 players set to compete for Cindy Edwards and her staff. With both Travis Osborne and Marion Harris on hand ✋we should be in a position where we can show some appreciation for this group of Ladies.
Speaking of Travis, his Bible Verse 🙏 of the Day:
Philemon 1:6 That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.
As for the two of us, we have wondered up from the safety of the Desert 🏜 towards the Top of the State in hopes of visiting more of the 11 College campuses here in the Bee 🐝 Hive state where College Hoops are played.
Two of the 11 are Utah Tech and Southern Utah University, down in our end. The other nine are in the Greater Salt Lake City area.
Utah State – 11am
Weber State – Noon
Salt Lake CC (JuCo)….off
Westminster University – D2 1 &3 pm
University of Utah – 4pm (Men)
Snow College ❄ (JuCo) 1 & 3

Amazingly 9 of the 11 will be hosting Basketball 🏀 games today ranging in Tip Times of 11am Mountain ⛰ until 4pm Mountain.
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck, sounds like a good question ???
We will see some College Basketball today but I’m not sure if it will rival what we watched last night.

Thank You Vickey Ritchie for sending in the clip from Coach Ed…
Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌
When a sportswriter is watching a game there can be multiple times when the storyline changes dramatically and that was certainly the case Friday night 🌙 as Furman University refused to lose against their neighbors and rivals, Wofford.
Alyssa Ervin, our former Lady 👩 Cavalier, finished with a game high 21 points with the final bucket coming on a well designed inbounds play by Head Coach Pierre Curtis. After Wofford took a one point lead at 64-63 with a made free throw, Furman called a timeout with 0:01.9 seconds on the clock ⏰ and Chantelle Stuart lobbed a pass over a 6’4 defender that Ervin caught mid-air and shot before landing for the victory.
It might not have been Grant Hill to Christian Laettner back in 1991 but it will be running on Furman highlight reels for a hot minute. The victory moves the Paladins to 6-1 in the SoCon at the midway pole, alone in second place !
Ervin also scored the previous basket to tie the game at 63 – 63 with 0:26 remaining but Wofford secured an offensive rebound after a late miss, allowing the home team to seemingly claim a hard fought victory.
Clare Coyle finished up with an impressive double – double ( 17 points, 11 rebounds ) and the 6’1 forward simply carried the ‘ Dins in the fourth quarter by scoring 11 down the stretch. Coyle set the table for Ervin and her Grand Finale in the closing seconds.
Wofford led most of the game but everytime the lead reached seven or nine, Ervin found an answer. When it happened again in the fourth quarter it was Coyle who said, ” Not on my watch”.
Furman University will now hunker down ahead of the pending storm as they are off until February 5th when league leading UT – Chattanooga comes to town.
Five of the seven regular season games left on the calendar 📅 will be played at Home 🏡.
The video 📹 of the basket 🧺 is available on ESPN for subscribers…
There were four more events originally planned for today and we see that the Girls Wrestling 👧 has been rescheduled. I will look to add more information on the remaining three as it becomes available.
****** All Events have been postponed, per Mr DeHaven…
Tough week for everyone involved with The Hill but say and 🙏🙏🙏 for the sanity of our Athletic Director, Kevin DeHaven as he is tasked with trying hard to find new dates 📅 for everything that cannot happen due to the weather.
So excited about Kristy Jones having some of her efforts to support ” Her Trenton ” and all of the West Long led Wrestlers land in The Carroll News !!! Kristy has been an absolute pleasure to work with all season 🙌 and I know how much her Children mean to her !
Saved by the Bell 🔔: The Cavalier College Years gets a late add today as Katie Lam and Roanoke College bumps their game up one day in hopes of beating the weather.
Spartanburg, South Carolina is set to host a 6pm Eastern Tip for the two teams currently tied for second place behind UT – Chattanooga.. Alyssa Ervin and Furman University will make the Midway turn in no worse than third place but a win tonight would give them second place all to themselves !
Meanwhile, SWCC was scheduled to host Guilford Tech tonight but that has been removed in one spot so not quite sure. But we can tell you that Bryce Smoot picked up some court time recently and added a rebound to his total. Both of our Smoot Brothers are finishing up their first and only season in Cedar Bluff as the Community College has announced that they will be ending their Athletic program at the end of the school year.
1 Samuel 2:2 There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
Yesterday was Day 60 of 90 out here in the Desert 🏜, leaving us at the 2/3 Poll in our quest for helping my Doctor smile. The next lab work is set for March 9th in Laurel Fork and a great deal of progress has been made !
The goals were 1,350,000 Steps 🚶♂️ across the 90 Days with a minimum of 10,000 per day.
The total cleared 1,000,000 yesterday and now sits at 1,006, 124 !!!
Travis just sent in his Bible Verse so folks are waking ⏰ up back on The Hill. Stay warm and stay safe and have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌
Will close it out with a few pictures 📷 from yesterday in Cedar City, Utah
