As a neutral observer on this one, I just thought Clay had too much stacked against them in the second half, with Sexton out and both bigs with three fouls at halftime. So much offensive responsibility falls on Smith and Farmer, Wolfe is a tremendous athlete, but not necessarily a great offensive threat, that it's tough if both of them aren't having good nights, and Farmer had a down second half. I still think the key to the region is if Griffith really gets going for South. He is showing flashes, but if he ever really gets comfortable it may be really tough for the rest of the region because they can be a matchup nightmare.
As for officiating, I usually try to stay away from that, so I'll just say this. On a night when there was basically nothing else of note being played in the region, boys or girls, shouldn't your three top-rated officials have had this game? I don't know who they are, but I think I know who they aren't.
