Shelby Valley 61 Bell County 58

Shelby Valley came back from a 12 point halftime deficit to beat Bell in OT. It seemed to me that Bell Co. got tired down the stretch and Shelby Valley did not. Shelby Valley has a lot of depth and used it in this game, Bell only played around 7 players even though they have about three other quality players(Warren, Nelson, Mickey) on the bench who either did not play or played very little.

I was pulling for Bell to pull it out, but Shelby Valley made the plays down the stretch, especially their freshman PG, who I thought should have been the MVP(not sure who won it). Hope Ryan Whitaker's injury will not cause him to miss any games coming up.

That is just Coach Whitaker being Coach Whitaker. Tournaments, especially in the post season, he shortens his bench and really gets away from his rotations that he used all season. One of his biggest weaknesses in my opinion and it is why he doesnt really have a lot of post season success.
