Final.

You had to be there to believe that finish! South had a 4 point lead and at the line with 11 seconds to go and somehow lost the game.

This is what I heard so if I am wrong please correct me.

 

South Oldham misses free throw, Walton's Taulbee scores and an intentional foul is called on South Oldham...Taulbee hit's both free throws to tie it..WV inbounds the ball and Dixon is fouled. Dixon misses first free throw but drains the second one to win it.

Congratulations WV ladies! What a night!

Worst refs I have ever seen. They actually let a WV girl take the ball out of bounds and bring it back in and shoot a three at the end. South girls were not defending because the ball was clearly out of bounds. if you think sour grapes look at the film. That ref was someone's uncle

The ref was not someone's uncle, at least not on Walton's team, but you are correct he missed the call the ball was clearly out of bounds. It is a mute point if South converts their free throws at the end.

 

If you have not had a chance to watch Whitfield play this year - wow what a player. Not just offensively, but the havoc she creates on defense is incredible. Crazy ending with two very questionable intentional foul calls, one on Walton and one on South. I don't think winning or losing this game gives either team an advantage. If they were to meet again it should be a classic. Very impressed with South and especially Whitfield.

I don't think Sportslady is going to be "mute" on this one.

Can someone describe the play where WV scored and there was an intentional foul called?

You are correct, South should have made the free throws. Dye lost a contact at the begininng of the game and actually put in another persons contact to finish the game .She is a much better free throw shooter but she has to make sure she has an extra pair at all times. All in all it was a good competitive game. I agree that Whitfield had a great game and is a really good offensive and defensive player who has several big D1 schools looking at her.

Just being a Junior she is going to turn a lot of heads in the next couple of years. I know she scored 29 points tonight, but I really enjoyed watching her play on the defensive end - I'm sure the Walton players did not.

I have seen ALL the top players in the 8th play this year and she is the best player in the 8th region! You are corredt she can do it on both ends of the court.

Did WV play a double header on this day?

Yes, they played Grant Co. earlier in the afternoon.
