I hope they win it too.. if anybody hears a score please keep me posted...
I hope they win. i would rather see anyone beat Gate City. Gate City shouldn't even be in single A ball.
lol........incredible.
why?
Are you asking; why they shouldn't be in Single A ball? Or Why I would rather see anyone beat Gate City?
Why not in single A
Kelly- 46
Gate City- 44
Good ball game tonight.
is that the final score??
46-44 FINAL
Whatta ballgame! Typical knock down, drag out dogfight. It usually is when these 2 fine squads tangle. JJK got up by 11,only to see GC cut it to 2, but when it was time to "go", both teams got sloppy and went cold, unable to capatilize on their opportunities. Congrats to my gals on a big win, and congrats to both for moving on to regions. I fully expect to see an all LPD Regional final at Castlewood.
who got MVP of the girl's game?
Kalen Collins (although IMO Sarah Saunders should have gotten it)
Congrat to both LPD teams.
To the Indian Girls. Make the dream reality.
Congrats to both coaches and teams on fine seasons.
J. D. played good tonight too, sucked to see her get hurt. They could have used her athleticism during the regionals. Hope we get to see her play again this year.
what happened to Jaydee?? is she hurt bad??? was it her ACL again??
it was definately her knee. i think she hurt her left knee before & this time it was the right one. they were taking her to the hospital after the game so we should know something soon.
Gate City has so many kids; they draw the better talent from other schools systems also. They have Athletes coming from several counties, almost like a small college. It is very hard for regular Single A schools to compete with this type of set up. For other Single A schools in SWVA to compete on that level they are going to have to be able to get athletes from other school systems. This is going to leave some schools without a program to speak of. The days of a school just having enough good athletes to go all the way to the State Finials in their regular student population is gone. Gate City should be the best just because they have a larger student population and with that more athletes to choose from. Most of the single A schools in SWVA on has an average of 250 students. Gate City has just fallen under the limit between single A and double A for years. These small single A schools do good to have 3 maybe 4 good athletes for each of their sports teams. Get to a school the size of Gate City and you will have 5 or 6 good athletes then add the 4 or so good athletes that move to play for them and you are going to have a heck of a time finding any regular single A school to compete with that.
Oh Congratulations JJK for a good win over Gate City. And there you go, JJK with a number of girls from several different school system pulled together to form a great basketball program. Hats off to Robin, he is a good coach. JJK is another team that I like to see get beat for a lot of the same reasons. JJK just happens to be the lesser of two evils for me.
I will say, now that they are representing the LPD I will be backing them as far as they can go. Hope one of them goes to The State Championship.
That was the most ridiculous thing i have ever read on here. and i wont even get into the reasons why. sorry.

BINGO!! Another genius! [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wall.gif[/img]
I'm sure that both the Lady Indians and Lady Devils will be hanging on the edge looking for this guy's lukewarm support. If you can't support a fellow LPD school in post-season with sincerity, then they'd rather not have it at all.
haha the ignorance of some people on here (and in SWVA outside the forum) never ceases to amaze me
you do know that Gate City isn't even one of the top 15 biggest schools in Single A right?
That MVP trophy could have gone to ANY of the Kelly girls. They ALL played their hearts out and stepped up when it counted. Each and every one of them deserved it.
Yes it could have. I said Sarah because she really stepped it up. To beat a team of GC's caliber, you have to have more than one "MVP" to get it done.
You are exactly right. The WIN means more to those girls than any individual tropies. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/getsmile.tmp007816300.gif[/img] GO LADY INDIANS!
And to think that some when the board went down were saying that JJK couldn't play team ball/had no concept of it. If you don't have the ability/desire to play as a team, you will not play for Robin Dotson.
I think all the girls deserved the MVP award,, you could see the effort throughout the game. They played better team ball and it paid off. Go Indians!
I meant trophies, just noticed the typo. I hate reading posts full of those. I apologize.
