[Eagle Eye]

What a shame that all the stuff that went on after the game took away from a great championship game between two outstanding high school basketball teams. I have no clue as to what went with the post game handshake but I did see a JC Assistant coach grab the game ball from SCHS athletic director Robin Newsome and take off . If it had not been for another JC assistant getting the ball back and giving it to Newsome, who was just doing her job as AD, coach Smith may not have gotten the ball at all. its always been that the winning coach gets the game ball and that the trophy presentation would come after one net is cut down. That was the way it went after the girls championship the night before and it was wrong to ask for the lights to be turned out while Sc fans had their chance to get their photos, that was disrespectful and it took away from a night of great, hard fought basketball by two outstanding teams.

I never saw Darrin Rice get a game ball....:igiveup:
