1st loss of the season for the Lady Rockets. They led by 9 at half but Mt. Juliet erased it quickly in the third quarter. Rockcastle will play the loser of Hoover Alabama and Greeneville on Friday. My guess is that it will be Greeneville.

Rockcastle lost to a good team. Mt. Juliet is one of the best teams in Tennessee.

I am impressed that Rock had a good lead at halftime. Too bad they let it slip.

Im still proud of the girls. they can use this as a learning experience and bounce back. keep your heads up girls. even the best fall down some times, just look at UCONN.

I look for them to bounce back when they play Greeneville today.

Did Hammond make the all-tourney team?

Mt. Juliet is always one of the top teams in Middle Tennesse.......

Rock held a 9 point lead at halftime. Mt. Juliet used their height advantage well in the second half.
