What ya think .. Might be a little payback for the boys lol.. I really don't know the first thing about them..

I know if cherokee plays like they did last night they will be a tough out ...
 
The Robinson girl is a D1 signed player (UNCC, I think). She's really good, but the rest of the team isn't anything to get excited about. Cherokee should win the game without a ton of issue.
 
When you get this competing is not usually a problem. A big time recruit is problems for almost every 1a team. Maybe cherokee should just st hope to compete lol. I look for really good games on both sides.
 
I agree Braves. I believe all teams should be respected at this point. I am expecting a great game actually.
 
Wait till you see the fans cherokee will bring .. We filled up uncg.
 
I think it will be a great atmosphere for the kids. I love games like this, it's what HS basketball is about.

That's why I used filled .. As in the past but I thank you for letting me know ..
 
OK girls, the boys took care of business last night so now it's your turn. I'm sure Cherokee will be a really tough out, but just go play your game and I'm sure you will be fine. Would'nt it be great to have both Albemarle teams in the western regional finals. Best of luck tonight. Go Dogs!
 
You are high no contest? Lmao girls could not relax and played probably their worst game of the season. Lmao the shots Mclendon got 8/10 of ten times drop.

Bottom line this is the first time these girls have been on this stage and played like it. Cherokee showed up to play. Do not disrespect these girls saying no contest. They played nervous and tight never got going, never relaxed and Cherokee was up 6 at half? No contest lol. Like I said hats off to Cherokee they played a great game. I also really like that guard #3. Very good guard and plays with composure and has great leadership. Good luck to Cherokee tomorrow vs Prep I will be pulling for you.
 
Great job Lady Braves. Good win especially with two starters out. On a side note add could not relax to the list.
 
Classy and respectful post bulldog. Mont you are starting to sound a lot like BK,only from Cherokee.
 
Recycled anytime you want to compare credentials let me know sir. Otherwise kick rocks. Anybody who played against or watched this team knew from watching this team tonight that they could not get going and played tight aka couldn't get relaxed. Let's remember these are HS kids who have never been or even had a team on this stage. The previous two years prior to last year a combined 15-32 since 41-13. This is all new to them and tonight was probably one of their poorest games played this season and Cherokee is not the toughest team they played.

Like I said Cherokee showed up to play we did not and Cherokee deserves that win, they earned it.

Don't be an ass anybody who has ever played or coached knows that when inexperienced teams get on a stage like this with 0 experience it's a very real possibility of the teams playing tight and not really being able to get relaxed and into the game. Happens at the collegiate level hell even on the NBA level.

Perfect example Mclendon had open shot open shot and could not hit. She is a junior and typically when she gets those looks repeatedly you are in for a long night. Keep in mind she is a 1000 pts scorer.

We return 11 off this team we will be fine moving forward.
 
Coach, just an opinion, spend more time getting your girls prepared instead of posting on preps. Just doesn't make you look good. Leaves to many doors open for people to say things you don't want to read.
 
They were prepared no worries on that like I said Cherokee showed up to play we didn't. These girls have accomplished a lot in the last two years. Think about it before last year when's the last time you heard about the albemarle girls varsity? It was a great experience for them. With 11 coming back they are motivated to get back there next year.
 
With 11 coming back next year you should be in great shape. nation. Experience on the big stage is something that will pay off down the road. It can be overwhelming for kids that have never been there before. Thought you did a great job with these girls this year nation and look forward to next year. Go Dogs.
 
No disrespect here. Both teams played hard. Braves were better prepared. Played 2 freshmen most of the game. Definitely their first time on this stage, but it did not show. Albemarle will definitely be strong next year, but little ole Cherokee is not going away anytime soon!

Now on to more important matters: WS Prep. Toughest team we will have played all year. Gonna have to bring our A+ game and have Lady Luck on our side too!
 
Thank you Buddy. Yeah they did things in this game they haven't done all season. Those refs though wow lol. Kept calling the wrong numbers even on fouls lol. Don't know where they got those guys but I don't believe they should have been reffing on that stage.

I will be up rooting for our boys today and good luck to Cherokee today.

Mont in regards to preperation the girls were prepared they had 0 issue beating the press etc. Cherokee didn't do anything that we haven't seen all season. We didn't execute offensively defensively etc. They just for lack of a better term got stage fright. Why don't you ask any of the 3 teams we beat in the playoffs how we play and see if it even remotely touched how we played yesterday and you will see what I am saying. They were out of character.

No excuses at all Cherokee showed up to play and did a great job and deserved to win that game.

Bulldog are you the coach? If so that explains a lot. If so, on a serious note, please follow this advice: don't defend yourself ("the girls were prepared") and place the blame on the kids (they just got stage fright).
 
What are you talking about recycled? We were prepared they it was a big stage for them no harm in that. It was a great run. As I stated Cherokee showed up and we didn't no blame on anybody.

Very proud of these kids for ALL that they overcame this season with injuries, and all the other stuff. It would have been easy to just quit with all the adversity and obstacles they been through this season. They kept fighting and came through in a big way. No kid from this team has any reason to drop their head or feel bad about last night. It was great experience for them.
 
Nation, have you ever lost a game to a better team? It seems to me when Albemarle girls lose it's always something (refs, stage fright, somebody sick, somebody hurt) just admit Cherokee was the better ball team and move on, the rest just looks like sour grapes (i.e., we've played better teams etc. etc. etc.)

No offense meant but when you get down by twenty points to a team (that was playing without two of their starters to injury anyway) before they pull their starters, there are no excuses. If this game were played 10 times, Cherokee wins at least 9 of them. If this game were played with Cherokee having the two injured starters they win 10 out of 10.

Good luck to Cherokee against Prep, I'd like to see them pull it out but just can't fathom it. In reality the state championship game was played yesterday in all but name only.
 
I think the only teams that could compete with prep are Atkins, bishop, Hayesville and HD. The NW and SMC were head and shoulders far and away the best conferences. No question.

You are out of your mind 9 out of 10 times coming from somebody who watched us play how many times this season?

Nope he is right 10 out of 10. You benefited from a weak bracket to reach the regionals. The number one team from your conference lost to the number three SMC team.
 
Anytime you want to compare credentials let me know.

Cherokee would not win our conference or beat West Mont maybe not even south Davidson if they were in our conference.

HD I was impressed with. Very good team play, very good defensive team that from watching the game they could beat Prep if they were accustomed to seeing that type of play. I thought the coach did a fantastic job with that team.

In regards to Cherokee beating Albemarle 10 out of 10 times off a 13 point win lmao right!!!!!

Monroe is way better than Cherokee and they beat us by 15 and we actually had the lead in that game until Robinson went down at the beginning of the 3rd quarter. This years Monroe team would beat us 6/10 maybe 7/10 times if we played well. Cherokee is no where near that Monroe team.

In closing do not disrespect this Albemarle team. Cherokee showed up to play and Albemarle didn't it's really as easy as that. Congrats to Cherokee on a great season.

Oh one final thing Robbinsville may have beat West Mont I didn't personally see the game but from what I was told West Mont controlled that whole game up until the end. Not sure what happened whether it was fouls fatigue or what. But considering they beat Cherokee I wouldn't be so confident. West Mont has 3 tough guards that can play with #3 all day especially Dumas and Horne.
 
West Montgomery would have finished no better than 5th in the NW or 4th in the SMC so that will give you a clue where your team would have been in those 2 conferences. Cherokee 10 out of 10 over Albemarle easy.
 
3 daughters did you see west mont or albemarle play this year? Lmao and no way would you like to compare credentials?
 
Albemarle was totally outgunned in the game, bottom line.

Cherokee, even shorthanded led by 20 in the second half.

That result wouldn't have been different at any other point.

Make that 15 out of 15..."weak" can't even begin to describe the YVC compared to the SMC and NW.

+1

In the NW you would finish behind Prep, Bishop, Atkins, Mt Airy and maybe even East Surry. In the SMC HD, Hayesville Cherokee and Robbinsville were all better. Di you not drop a 20+ decision to Mt Airy in the second round last year and now a 15+ lost to a depleted Cherokee?
 
Bulldog nobody cares about your credentials. Everyone has a opinion on here. Don't be so sensitive.

As a coach your "credentials" are the team you put on the floor.
