Dagger shot today over 3 defenders with 4 seconds left in a tie game against LR Mills in 4A semi final.

The shot sent his team to championship game.

And idiots like me said he couldn't shoot...

He’s a winner. He and Nick Smith just have the it factor. Next year could be really fun

The second guy didn't even jump, like did he think he could just stand flat footed and block his shot? Once he faked the first guy it was a clean shot. Kudos to him for staying composed the whole time.

There are some really good boys state title
Matchups this year

I’m sure NLR will blowout Bentonville in 6A but

5A - Marion vs Jonesboro
4A - Magnolia vs Blytheville
3A - Osceola vs Dumas

All three should be good games

Wow. I had no idea we were doing so well. I live in Marion and no one, even on Facebook, is talking about this year's basketball team. Plenty of folks complaining about pot holes though.

Mills had 39 points with 1:39 to go in the third. Start of the forth quarter they had 37. For no reason

The same thing happened to Magnolia last year in the same semi-final round in Morrilton I believe.

Magnolia had 2 pts taken away for no reason and they were never added back. One fan even got kicked out of the game he was going so ballistic behind the scorers table.

Morrilton (w/Joseph Pinion on the team) ended up winning.

Let me change that, people are aware of it. The high school is cancelling classes that day so students can go to the game if they want and parents are not at all happy about it. So we have a chance to win a state title and the folks here are up in arms about it. Seems pretty par for the course.

I enjoyed reading this thread. I love Arkansas and love witnessing excited Arkansas moms and dads and kids jumping for joy in a basketball venue


I can smell the popcorn and M&M's and Coke

Uh oh. We probably know each other, especially if you went to Fair.
