Final.....

Are the wheels coming off of the Rose Hill Express?

Let me guess? Hmmm? To much Rainey?

Let me guess? Hmmm? To much Rainey?

 

The truth is too many 6th & 7th graders on the floor for Rose Hill. Queen had Rainey frustrated throughout the first half. Rainey (a wonderul talent) didn't really assert herself until, once again, foul troubles left RHCS unable to defend.

Are the wheels coming off of the Rose Hill Express?

 

 

And, man, who 'da thunk it (insert avatar for scratching one's head). They graduated 3 of the only 6 kids that played last year and I just can't figure out why those 6th and 7th graders that have taken their place this year haven't "stepped up."

What were Raineys stats if anyone knows?

Perhaps those 6th and 7th graders never played that much last year because they were not needed.

 

The 3 seniors need to learn to give up a basket every now and then instead of fouling.

What is rose hills record on the year, it does not seem like they have played that many games up to this point. There is still a lot of time for the young girls to step up.

1 and 5

We all know the situation at RH why do we have to hear the same thing after every game. It gets to be old. EVERYONE knows that RH has 2 of the best girls in the State on their team but no bench. There are hundreds of High Scools who have NO Superstars and NO bench and they fight the same fight as you all. Be thankful for what you have and make the best of it. Please no more our best 3 can play with the best 3 from any other High School it is a 5 person sport still.

I dont believe Rose Hill will win many games with just 2 or 3 players

Ya think?

If "We all know the situation at RH," then please explain to me how those in the know could have ranked them so high...and continue to do so. The whole point of mentioning the young players is to say that what is happening is exactly what should have expected...and it isn't going to improve.

 

The wheels aren't falling off...they were never on. As for the "to[o] much Rainey" remark...how is one supposed to respond but to once again point out the obvious?

 

And finally, let's be just a bit reasonable. "Hundreds of High Sc[h]ools?" May I ask you to name 5 that start a 6th or 7th grader? And, if so, are they questioned after every loss as if they somehow blew yet another opportunity?

 

I for one don't expect this year's Lady Royals to win more than 6 or 7 ballgbames...and will not be bothered by it.

I often say the same, but have to remind myself that being on the floor for the entire game has much to do with the foul problems that plague the Lady Royals.

What were Raineys stats if anyone knows?

 

From an online newspaper:

 

 

Rose Hill (1-5) --Faulkner 6, Terry 17, Gambill 2, Queen 24, Friley 3.

 

Warren East (9-2)--Moore 8, Forrest 3, Rainey 30, Bonds 7, Mahoney 6, Briggs 6.

 

Queen also had 17 boards and handled the ball much of the game for RHCS. I don't have Rainey's rebound totals, but she had a good all around game with several blocks.
