Shelby Valley 73 - Ballard 61 (State Championship)

One person that deserves some recognition is Randy Davis. I think he is the one person (besides Elisha) that is the most responsible for the player that Elisha Justice is today. The Dorton Middle School program is one of the classiest ran programs in the state. Elisha got tons of experience from his time at Dorton and got the chance to play year round competitive basketball against the best competition in the state.

Randy Davis and Greg Newsome are as responsible for this state title as any one outside of the players IMO.
Excellent post Larry..I worked for TECO in Myra for a few years, and honestly wasnt very familiar with the SV program. I knew they were always good, but didnt know who were responsible for the program. I worked with one of the parents of a Valley player and we became best buddies. He let me in on the insight of the program, and he mentioned Randy and Gregs names a hundred times. I grew to become a fan of Valley basketball through the people I worked with.
