Tomorrow night.

Really happy for the Polar Bears.  For small schools when this type of team comes around you need to take advantage of the opportunity.  Adam Reed seems to keep this team always coming at you.  Yes maybe they are edgy but they play with recklessness and no fear.

Good for Bracken! Congratulations on a hard fought win. These guys must like OT!

Let's just say, they are a spirited bunch.  ?

 

Those guys have a lot of heart and never give up! Lots of fun to watch, like a tennis match back n forth the entire game! The scrappiest team I’ve seen in a long time. They have a bright future ahead of them!

Per the Ledger Independent.

Bracken County is definitely a spirited bunch. I hate that the game got heated some in the third quarter. But I am glad I saw the Polar Bears play this year. Coach Adam Reed is definitely passionate. He gave a great interview after the game. Campbell County had its chances to win, but could not seal the deal. The Camels will be back next year losing only two seniors.

I am tickled to death for my long-suffering faithful friends to the immediate west. Score one for the small schools.  

And never forget.  High school basketball is first and foremost a guard’s game.
