Whitley Co. 69 Harlan Co. 56

In all honesty, i might have been exxaggerating a bit, however, there were two years when Heather Taylor was there i thought we were the best team in the region, and two years after her that i believe we had the best talent in the region, but we didnt have the BEST player in the region and you know as well as i do in girls basketball, sometimes having the best plyer wins it for you instead of having the best team.
I think the point he was trying to make is that if we had another coach been at the helm, maybe a better one, he could have took some of the teams Whitley has had and went somewhere with them.
Dont get me wrong, i think Anderson is an excellent coach. He has won numerous games at Whitley and done great thing for the program. He's a great team coach.
If it were not for Jackson and the big Elliot girl we would have won in 01.
There were numerous times Clay was the only team that could have knocked us out, and did.
I want to say in the mid 90's (I cant remember the year) we were in the mix.

You might remember but i cant, but didnt Whitley have a team in the late 80's that were the favorites?

Im not sure if it was coaching as much as it was the pure dominance of one team or another over the years thats always been the thorn.
This is why im glad we have pretty good parity this year and theres not one team thats the overwhelming favorite. If we dont win it this year, its our own fault because IMO, we have a good chance as well as others in the region do.

Weve had the talent over the years and some of the best players to come out of the region, but for a school our size to not win a region since 85 (last time we won state, and only time) is not good on our part.
