    We got some HUGE games coming up this week that will determine the seeding for the Conference Tourney, and will have some state playoff implications. We have rivalry games, and potentially a game to determine the regular season champion. This is what the NW4A is all about...

    Here is a list of the games of most importance:

    Tuesday (2-10-04)

    Freedom @ McDowell
    South Caldwell @ AC Reynolds


    Friday (2-13-04)

    AC Reynolds @ McDowell
    Freedom @ East Burke


    Let the conversation begin...

    Well, well, well.......this week is the week isn't it! Well, assuming McDowell beats Freedom Tuesday (and they will), then the South Caldwell/ACR game really doesn't mean anything. ACR still has to win Friday at McDowell to win the conference and get the #1 seed. Beating SC is only important to guarantee at least a tie for the top spot in the conference tournament and require a draw should ACR lose to McDowell. If McDowell wins Tuesday against Freedom, ACR HAS to win 1 game against McDowell at McDowell either Friday or next week in the conference tournament, to get the #1 seed in the state playoffs....barring McDowell getting upset in the conference tournament, it's that simple!

    Will Freedom or South Caldwell finish in third or has that not been determined yet?

    well, Freedom and South Caldwell both have two games this week, They are currently tied for 3rd in conference. South Caldwell has games @ AC Reynolds and against Alex. Central. Freedom has a tougher schedule playing at McDowell and at East Burke. Word from Morganton is that Tara Tate will definintely not play against McDowell or East Burke. Not sure about the conference tourney or state playoffs. But from what I hear, it's not looking too good at this time.

    Does anyone know the status of tara tate. Will she be able to play tommorow night and will she be 100%. How about some feedback from you lady patriot fans, you seemed to have dissappeared from the board lately.

    Anyone know how East Burke/Watauga game came out Monday? I am sure East won, but what was the score?

    Our record does not mirror how well we have played this year. AC, you are sure that East Burke won implying that Watauga has a bad team. Yes, we are 1 and 10, but we played you to 10 points up here and had you on the ropes their, enough that you all pressed us up to the last horn. I am in no way implying that you all are not good, you are. In fact if you all make it to the final 4 this year I would be very happy for you. We played Freedom to within 10 on their home floor and East Burke to within 2 on their home floor. We have had only 3 bad games - 2 to South and 1 to mcdowell at their place. Every other game we have been in. No, we have not had much success here in the past, but if you think for one minute that these girls are not trying you might find yourself in a dogfight in the middle of the conference tournament. You all have had the same coach for years, our coach comes in the day before the season starts - implements a new system and these girls pick it up quick enough that they legitimatly compete night in and night out in every game. That to me is more impressive then a team that is loaded and finds winning easy. These girls know that every time they step on the floor they are the underdog, even tonight against Alexander. But, they never quit fighting - they never quit beliveing that tonight might be the night that they beat the big guys. You wonder why no one else responds on these boards - Well I can tell you this - It is difficult to work so hard for a goal and have come so far in becoming competitive and have someone assume that you are a bad team because your record says so. If you only new what these girls have been through in the last year.

    By the way, we keep on fighting even though we lost a heart breaker last night 81 - 80 in overtime. 80 points -

    Good Luck with such a great team!!!
