Very surprising victory for the Rams... Congrats!
Akers went out during the 2nd period with a ankle problem and did not return...with akers the raiders would have won this game hands down.

horrible game the refs wouldnt call anything there was 35 fouls called on SF and very few called on Riverside there was 5 people fouled out 4 people injured and at the end of the game there was only 7 players that could play for South Floyd the ref left riverside push elbow play as dirty as possible and if SF even touched someone they called a foul

Riverside gets a big win over a county school for the first time in a long while. Congrats to them. This team works hard, and they deserved this game. They were up 18 at one time.
Does a team ever win without cheating on this board? C'mon!

Well of course the Riverside people wouldnt...thats a dumb question...
Here's few stats about the game...
Riverside-
Took 46 FT's
ONLY committed 12 fouls
Shot 23 FT's in the 4th.
Napier shot 16 FT's, had about 30pts.
#24 for RC(second best player) shot 18Ft's
SF-
Took 16 Ft's
Committed 35 fouls..
3 players fouled out, 4 players finished the game with 4 fouls each.
Wes Akers went down early in the 2nd and never returned, along with a few others that got injured.
They had to finish the game with seven players, 4 of which had 4 fouls each.
Not to mention a Ref got into a players face from SF and bumped him and said shut up boy...I also was told that Coach Barry Hall told an official he missed a call and his response was..:) i missed one tonight:confused: :D

Well,Raider said to ask anyone there, so I was wondering. As far as the free throws are concerned, maybe South Floyd was shooting the 3's like it seems is their trademark anymore. You cant get to the line if you dont ever drive to the goal. On the same note, if Riverside was driving the lane and taking it to the goal, then that would explain the fouls on South Floyd. I am just saying that you cant look at a stat sheet and say if the game was called correctly. I am pretty sure that both teams videoed the game. You should get a copy from either South Floyd or Riverside and turn it over to the police if a ref got in a players face and bumped him. That would be battery...

Wes AKers was out of the game, so there wasnt alot of 3's shot...SF probably shot around 15 3's for the game...SO, no it wasnt because of the long bombs, that did them in...Because Riverside shot just as many or more.

finally someone with stats... now for those who told me to stop whinning because we lost there u go there's proof...So you think you can look at stat sheets and tell if a game was officiated right? About a month ago, Kentucky played a game where the other team didnt shoot a free throw until 2 minutes to go in the game. Looking at the stats, dont you think it would look like a unfair called game? But it was on national tv and two major college teams were playing. Looking at how many free throws were shot and fouls cant make it a good called or bad called game. Now dont get me wrong, I am not saying it was called right or called wrong. Most of the time on here the losing team blames it on the refs. I may be wrong, it could be home cooking going on, but most of the time it isnt.

Thats a typical game in the 15th Region isn't it? The refs there and the 13th make the 14th Region refs look like referee gods. Here's a good question, why would your own officials give you the shaft from a team out of the region? Congrats Riverside.

They will be better because akers will be gone and as for leadership he supplies none because all he does is shoots the ball whenever he gets it and plays zero team ball so yes they do play better without him as a team.

Well he is shawn newsome's cousin, but he is in no relation to alex hammonds, they are just best friends. I was told he was born in martin, and his family moved away, but then moved back this year, thats the reason he is playing for AC, and his father graduated from AC. But even without Crum, AC would still be in contention for the district title, and SF would not.

I understand your thoughts on SF next year...But you also got to think about other teams losses...Im not saying they will compete for the Reg. Title, but IMO they will compete in the 58th...
In the 58th...
Losses to Graduation
AC- Crum, Hammonds, Cole, and Turner (Lose States leading 3pt. shooter, close to 50ppg, 4 out of there top 7 or 8 players)
P-Burg- Hall, Stephens, and Clark ( Big Big Losses)
BL- Newman, Case, Keathley, and Lafferty (4 starters, decent PG, 6'7 center, streaky shooter)
SF-Akers and Hayes(about 23ppg)

Well i dont know the whole story, if you are so interested, go ask him or his parents why he moved here.. i really dont think it has anything to do with things being talked about on here though. The fact of the matter is, he is at AC now and he is having a great year, and he is one reason the 58th district is so fun to watch this year, so what does it matter why he came?

Ok...yes he's here and doing great...But, it seems alittle funny that you make 2nd team all state in WV and then the following year you move to the school your cousin asst. coaches for...

Haha are you saying that a kid moved a few hours away to play basketball just because his cousin is an assistant coach? be realistic. i dont think a whole family would move to another state just so their child can play for a family member as an assist. coach, not even a head coach. I think someone is just envious..

I just don't think SF returns the KEY experience anyone else does in the district. IMO SF is at LEAST 2 more years away from challenging for the district. JMO

Envious?...not close...Shawn tells Johnny....Johnny gets excited and says why not...Crum is in a AC uniform...Simple as that...Maybe they sold him on the idea that if they got him, they would go 2 state:confused:

haha it sounds to me like you are sitting there thinking of some crazy story to tell, just to get people to talk about it. do u honestly think a kid would move many hours away just because his cousin is an assistant coach?

IM not thinking of some crazy story, i guess no one else knows he's a new player:confused: ...Not because of the assistant coach, but because he can play...If he couldnt would he be here(AC)...but he is a good ball player and not a bad young man...so lets leave it at that..

WOW, How did the SF vs. Riverside thread become the "Why is Crum at AC" thread?
People move or relocate all the time.

My Oh My. So much talk about so little a game. South Floyd picks up a game to roundout the season for their allotment and come up short. It was a different environment but one that can be counted on to remember for a few years. Plenty of things went on but all that can be said was the final results and that was a loss for SFHS. Wes Akers has been playing much better for the last several games and although having come up short in those except for the Betsy Layne game I think he is trying to get the other players involved more. He is a pretty good little player when he does this and alot of things he does goes without notice. It could not be the most ideal posititon to be in going into your last year knowing that the wins or win would be so few. Wes has played on two 15th Regional All A championship teams and also on one 58th District winner in his four years. Shelby Valley has had more in the last four, and Paintsville has now wne a couple of All A's but I don't think anyone else has any however I could be wrong. South Floyd has had a terrible year as far as wins or losses but I really think they will get better by next year and definitely the year after that they will be one of the better teams in the 15th. They can not compete against a Shelby Valley right now but how many in the 15th can? I have thought about that last game South Floyd played and that is about it, just a thought. Final thing was we got beat by Riverside Christian and now we play Pike Central tuesday. Riverside had a pretty good player inside that was about 6ft 6in. This is just high school basketball in the end and not a war amongst ourselves. We just got beat.

Who???
SF still doesn't return anybody with the experience of J. Prater, the Crowder twins, T. Clark, Burchett, J. Tackett, or some of the players at BL. IMO that leaves them 3 or 4th again.
Taylor Clark is a senior....Josh Prater is the only player with more than one year of varsity experience on the Rebels, this is the first year the Crowders have got to play.
Next year will be the first year, Burchett has to and will be the main guy at P-burg. Jody Tackett, this is his first full year of varsity basketball, next year he will have to develop into a second option for the Blackcats...Who on BL will have experience?...Adam Slone will be the only one with some quality varsity experience...Head, this is his first year and he will be expected to do alot more next year....Martin, needs to get stronger, point blank, IMO with more playing time, he will get pushed around and dogged on defense due to his lack of strength, but his a talented soph. and can shoot but is very streaky...Maldonado, will be the starting PG as a soph. more than likely which will bring a ton of pressure on him, i sure hope he's ready....Other than that BL has nobody with tons of experience and quality playing time...
