congrats valley.
that was a very close game the whole way through. i am actually surprised to see east ridge stay in the game the way that they did. valley had a horrible game the first half. kris bentley could not "hit the broad side of a barn". after the half aaron branham came back out and took a few bad shots. east ridge couldn't hit their free throws when they really needed to. jordan coleman dislocated his shoulder for the second time but came back into the game which was shocking.

props to the east ridge team though for keeping the score as close as it was. boo to aaron branham for holding the ball during the last two minutes when east ridge was down. easy steals for valley when they stepped out on the team. john johnson getting the fumble in the last 5 seconds got patrick tackett a wide open layup to make valley win by 5.

lets just hope that my boys do something in regionals.
