I GUESS WE CAN CALL THIS SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM COUNTDOWN TO TEBOW.

IT IS COUNTDOWN TO DOWNTOWN.

THREE-POINT SHOOTOUT.

WE HAVE THIS ONE TODAY.

TOMORROW WE HAVE THE GIRLS CHAMPIONSHIP.

IT IS THE SEA WHO ARE THE BEST SHARPSHOOTERS IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA BUT YOU HAD A SEMIFINAL COMPETITION AROUND THE STATE, A COUPLE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS.

FROM THAT, YOU HAVE THE COED TOUGH THREE THAT ARE GOING TO BE IN THIS COMPETITION.

WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF FUN HERE SEEING.

THIS IS HOW I USED TO DO THINGS WHEN I WOULD PLAY PICKUP BASKETBALL.

I WOULD HAVE THE 25 DOWNTOWN FOOTER, WE WILL SEE WHO CAN MAKE THOSE AND IN QUICK SUCCESSION.

WE HAVE GOT A CLOCK, SO WE WILL WALK THROUGH.

IT IS THE DUAL OF HANCOCK AND PIERCY FROM --WHEN CLIFF AND TURNER FROM CHEROKEE.

WE KNOW THAT GRIFFIN REALLY DOES HAVE A LOT OF SHARPSHOOTERS IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

ALEX LIKE CLIFF AND CHASE TURNER FROM CHEROKEE.

WE WILL HAVE DIFFERENT SHOOTERS TOMORROW.

SINCE THE BEGINNING --BELIEVE IN CHIVALRY, GRIFFIN WILL START US OFF.

YOU SEE ARBOR WALKING EVERYONE THROUGH THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT.

YOU SEE ERNIE WALKING EVERYBODY THROUGH.

WHAT I'M GOING TO DO, I'M GOING TO WALK ONTO THE FLOOR.

WERE GOING TO HAVE FUN, WERE GOING TO DO THIS FROM THE FLOOR.

HERE WE GO.

YOU GOT YOUR INTRODUCTIONS GOING ON RIGHT NOW.

WHEN I'M GOING TO DO, I'M GOING TO GO OVER TO ERNIE.

GET A QUICK DOSE OF THE RULES.

SHOOTING FIRST WILL BE GRIFFIN HIGH SCHOOLS, HANCOCK AND INNOCENT PIERCY.

THE CLOCK WILL START ON THE RELEASE OF THE FIRST SHOT.

90 SECONDS ON THE CLOCK, STARTED.

OFF THE BACK OF THE ROOM TO START.

IT TAKES A LITTLE WHILE AS WE HAVE SEEN SO FAR THIS WEEK, TO GET ADJUSTED TO THESE RAMS AND THE BACK WARDS, TO FIND OUT REALLY WHERE IT IS.

THERE IS THE FIRST ONE.

IN SHORT ON THE MONEYBALL.

PLENTY OF TIME ON THE CLOCK.

YOU HAVE ONE: 05.

A BIT OF A RHYTHM, HERE.

THREE OUT OF FOUR.

THE MONEYBALL RIMS OUT.

RON NUMBER TWO WITH UNDER ONE MINUTE TO GO.

THIS ONE FROM THE CORNER.

PICKING THE NEAR QUARTER --CORNER.

THIS IS A RIGHT-HANDED SHOOTER.

GOES IN, NICELY DONE THERE.

NINE POINTS TOTAL.

COMING UP ON 30 SECONDS TO GO.

THREE IN A ROW.

GOOD RHYTHM SET.

LEFTY SHOOTER.

I CAN KIND OF UNDERSTAND, IF YOU'RE THE LEFTY SHOOTER, HAVE THE BEST LINE OFF THE SHOOTER.

SAVE THAT NUMBER.

15 ON THE BOARD.

THE JEWEL OF WHITE CLIFF AND TURNER OF CHEROKEE.

90 SECONDS ON THE CLOCK.

WE WILL RESET THE BOWLS ON THE RACKS.

WE WILL SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO ERNIE, WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT THE FIRST ROUND?

IT TOOK THEM A WHILE TO GET ADJUSTED BUT THEY DID GET A RHYTHM.

THEY ARE A LITTLE NERVOUS.

SHOOTING DOWN HERE, IT IS NORMAL.

THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO MAKE IT UP.

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

WE WILL GO ROUND TWO, TEAM TWO.

IT IS WHITECLIFFE AND TURNER FROM CHEROKEE.

THANKS TO ERNIE, THE GRAND GURU OF BASKETBALL AND THE CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR GHSA.

ONCE AGAIN, THE CLOCK WILL START ONCE THE FIRST SHOT IS RELEASED.

THE CLOCK STARTS.

SIDE OF THE ROOM TO START.

BACK ON.

ONCE AGAIN, NOT A SURPRISE THAT YOU WOULD HAVE A BIT OF A SLOW START TRYING TO WORK YOUR WAY IN.

WHEN YOU HAVE TIME ON THE CLOCK TO FINISH THE OTHER THREE RACKS.

BALL GOES IN TO START THINGS OFF.

RACK NUMBER TWO.

THERE IS A RHYTHM.

TWO IN A ROW.

THREE IN A ROW.

MONEYBALL.

BOOK IT.

RACK NUMBER THREE.

THE ARC WAS THERE ON THE FIRST ONE.

THAT ONE FALLS.

TWO IN A ROW.

MONEYBALL.

JUST OFF THE FRONT OF THE ROOM.

RIGHTY, SHOOTER.

OFF THE RIM, ONCE AGAIN.

13 POINTS ON THE BOARD.

REAMED OUT ON THE MONEYBALL.

CHEROKEE GETS 13.

LET'S SEE WHAT THE VIKINGS HAVE TO DO HERE?

15 AND 13, YOUR FIRST TWO POINTS ON THE BOARD.

EVERYONE SCRAMBLES TO MAKE SURE THE BALLS GET BACK IN THE RACKS.

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

15 AND 13 OUT OF THE BLOCKS FOR GRIFFIN AND FOR CHEROKEE.

YOU SEE WHAT THOMAS AND HOLDEN HAVE TO DO HERE.

MAKING SURE THE RACKS THEMSELVES ARE POSITIONED PROPERLY AND COMFORTABLY FOR THE SHOOTERS.

ONE RACK FOR EACH PLAYER AT THE 45 DEGREE ANGLE.

ONE RACK ON THE BASELINE.

NOW, AIYANAH THOMAS AND HOLDEN ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT RACK THEY WANT AND WHERE?

WE ARE HAVING A SWITCH OF RACKS.

FIVE BALLS WORTH A POINT EACH AND THE MONEYBALL FOR THREE.

HOLDEN, ONCE AGAIN, AND, THOMAS ARE SET TO LOCK AND LOAD IN A SECOND.

THEY ARE BOTH LINING UP ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE.

THAT IS INTERESTING.

TRADITIONALLY WE HAVE HAD ONE ON EACH SIDE OF THE 45 DEGREE.

HOLDEN WILL START OFF ON THE BASELINE.

HERE IS THE FIRST ONE FOR HIRES.

THE MONEYBALL IN RACK ONE, JUST MISSES.

THOMAS.

FINDING HER SPOT RIGHT THERE BEHIND THE THREE-PART --THREE-POINT ARC.

THE THIRD ONE GOES IN.

MONEYBALL, RACK NUMBER TWO, THREE POINTS.

HIGHER, FIRES.

THAT HAS NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE.

HITTING A RHYTHM NOW AT THE BASELINE.

NINE POINTS HEADING INTO RACK NUMBER FOUR.

35 SECONDS.

PLENTY OF TIME.

10 POINTS.

11.

GOING TO HAVE TO HIT THE MONEYBALL HERE.

RIMMED OUT.

GIVE THE 14.

YOU MISSED THE MONEYBALL.

15-13 --15-13-11.

GRIFFIN, CHEROKEE -- NOW WE HAVE INVERTED THE TABLE A LITTLE BIT.

THE TEAM THAT SCORED THE LEAST AMOUNT OF POINTS IN ROUND NUMBER TWO, GETS TO SET THE MARKER FOR EVERYONE ELSE GOING FORWARD.

LOWNDES WILL GO FIRST BECAUSE THEY HAD THE LEAST AMOUNT OF POINTS IN RIM NUMBER ONE.

BASICALLY THE ORDER WE HAD IN ROUND NUMBER ONE GETS REVERSED IN RIM NUMBER TWO.

IS SET US THE SHOOT OUT FOR THE TEENS.

HIRES IS STARTING OFF THINGS IN ROUND NUMBER TWO.

A COUPLE OF BOUNCES ON EACH RIM.

HIRES, THE END OF RACK NUMBER ONE.

THOMAS, BACK RIM.

BUCKET.

FOUND HER SPOT.

THREE IN A ROW.

MONEYBALL.

RIM.

RACK NUMBER THREE FOR HIRES.

SECOND BALL GOES IN.

MIGHT'VE FOUND HIS SPOT HERE.

THREE IN A ROW.

FOUR.

MONEYBALL.

HIRES, I'M BIT OF A ROLL.

40 SECONDS AGO.

UNDER, 40.

THERE ARE 12.

BACK IRON.

MONEYBALL.

RIMMED OUT WITH 20 SECONDS TO GO.

13-11, 24.

THAT IS THE NUMBER THAT -- 24, IS THE NUMBER THAT HAS BEEN PUT ON THE BOARD BY LOWNDES.

REMEMBER, CHEROKEE, HAVE 13 IN ROUND NUMBER ONE.

ONCE AGAIN, GETTING THE PLACEMENTS JUST RIGHT.

IS THIS MY SPOT?

I THINK IT IS?

CHECKING THE RACKS.

ONCE AGAIN, YOU GOTTA MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WHERE THE RACK IS.

GOT SOME RECENT INTEL IN THE SEMIFINALS.

THE CHEROKEE DUAL SCORED 26 IN ONE ROUND TO ADVANCE IN THE FINALS.

THE FIRST ONE ON THE CLOCK WITH A MINUTE AND A HALF.

RIMMED OUT.

IN AND OUT.

THAT WAS CLOSE.

THERE IS YOUR SPOT.

REMEMBER THAT.

SECOND ONE IN.

2 FOR FORTIS.

3 FOR 5.

MONEYBALL, BOOK IT.

SIX, IN THE FIRST RACK.

THE LITTLE HOP STEP.

SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?

THAT SET THINGS UP WITH THE RIGHT FOOT.

MONEYBALL, RACK NUMBER TWO.

JUST MISSED.

RACK NUMBER THREE.

RIMMED ALL THE WAY THROUGH.

IF MY MATH IS CORRECT AFTER THAT HITS THE BACK RIM, MONEYBALL, RACK NUMBER THREE, AT 15.

THIS WAS KIND OF THE DISPLAY THEY PUT ON WHEN THEY WERE COMFORTABLE WITH RIMS IN THE SEMIFINAL.

CREEKSIDE DUO PUTTING UP A NUMBER IN ROUND NUMBER TWO.

MONEYBALL, RIMMED OUT.

THEY ENDED UP WITH 19.

THAT PUTS THEM AT 32.

IF MY MATH IS CORRECT, YOU'RE LOOKING AT 19.

I APPRECIATE THAT MATH MORE THAN ANYBODY KNOWS.

14 IS YOUR TARGET.

ROUND NUMBER ONE THEY HAD 15.

HANCOCK AND PIERCY, FIRST ONES TO GO.

THEY HAVE THE HOT START, FINISHED WITH 15.

CREEKSIDE SET UP A BIT OF A MARK --CHEROKEE PUT UP A BIT OF A MARK.

ONCE AGAIN, HOLDEN HIRES.

MAKING SURE THAT THE BALLS ARE SATISFACTORY.

THEY LITERALLY ARE CHANGING THE ORDERS HERE FOR HANCOCK AND PIERCY.

THEY ARE MAKING SURE THAT THE BALLS ARE CORRECT AND DESIRED IN THE RACKS.

THIS IS SO MUCH OF A SCIENCE WHEN IT COMES TO THREE-POINT SHOOTING.

IF YOU HAVE A CERTAIN BASKETBALL AND RACK, YOU HAVE TO HANG OUT WITH YOUR BEST FRIENDS.

ONE OF THE BALLS PLACED IN THE RACK LITERALLY HAD ZERO BOUNCE TO IT.

MAYBE THAT'S WHAT A THREE-POINT SHOOTER WANTS?

MAYBE YOU CAN CONTROL IT A LOT BETTER?

BOUNCE PASS TO THE ONE RACK.

BILLY GOT OFF THE GROUND.

START THE CLOCK AT 1:30.

2 FOR FORTIS.

MONEY BALLED IN.

RACK NUMBER ONE.

TWO POINTS, ONCE AGAIN.

YOU HAVE A TARGET NUMBER.

LOCATION SEEMS TO BE FOUND.

THE RADAR IS WORKING.

I SAY THAT AND IT GOES OFF THE RIM.

FIVE POINTS THROUGH TWO RACKS.

HAVE WORK TO DO TO ADVANCE TWO.

ONE-ON-ONE FINALS.

THREE-POINTER, UP AND IN.

RACK NUMBER THREE, GOT IT.

THAT GETS HIM TO 10.

NOW YOU HAVE TO LAUNCH ALL OF THESE IN THE FINAL 35 SECONDS.

LEFTY, SHOOTER, AT THE EDGE OF THE THREE.

MONEYBALL HAS GOT TO GO IN IF THE MATH IS RIGHT.

IT DOES.

THE LAST SHOT OF THE RACK GETS THE ADVANCE.

ALL OF THAT MATH MEANS WE ARE DOWN TO THE FINAL MATCHUP.

ONCE AGAIN, ALL OF THE MATH IS GONE.

NOW IT IS SO LOW.

ONCE AGAIN IT IS TEAM ONE VERSUS TEAM TWO.

IT IS GRIFFIN GOING.

GRIFFIN AND THEN CHEROKEE.

FIND OUT HOW IT IS HERE.

EVERYBODY IS GETTING THE RACKS TOGETHER.

I HAVE NEVER KNOWN THE POINT SHOOTERS TO BE PERSNICKETY.

THEY WENT --I DON'T KNOW IF ALL THREE-POINT SHOOTERS HAVE THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR?

THEY ARE KIND OF CHOOSY WHEN IT COMES TO SHOOTING BALLS WHEN YOU PLAY AROUND THE WORLD.

THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DOING HERE.

YOU SEE ALL OF THE BALLS BEING ROTATED THROUGH.

BEING ERODED TO --ROTATED AND EVERYTHING.

THERE BEING PERSNICKETY.

THAT IS THE WORD OF THE DAY.

90 SECONDS ON THE CLOCK.

THANKS TO THE DUO OF THOMAS AND HIRES FOR ADVANCING IN THE SEMIS.

FOR BEING A PART OF THINGS WITH THE VIKINGS AND BY GETS.

I HAVE A QUESTION WITH BASKETBALLS?

ARE SHOOTERS SHOOTING THE BALLS THEY WANT THEMSELVES?

DO THEY HAVE THEIR OWN BASKETBALLS?

THEY HAVE TO SHOOT THE ONES WE PROVIDE.

IS A LIE, I DON'T LIKE THAT SO GET ME ANOTHER ONE?

NO.

I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WAS LIKE I WANT THIS ONE BECAUSE IT FEELS RIGHT.

GRIFFIN, OUT OF THE BLOCKS.

THE FIRST ONE IN RACK NUMBER ONE GOES LEFT.

MONEYBACK.

RACK NUMBER ONE.

THE SECOND ONE IS THROUGH.

FIVE POINTS ON THE BOARD WITH ONE MINUTES AGO.

YOU HAVE TO GET THROUGH THIS RACK AND ANOTHER ONE.

MONEYBALL AND RACK NUMBER TWO.

OFF THE FRONT IRON FROM THE LEFT CORNER.

I WOULD ALSO IMAGINE THAT YOUR ARMS GET REALLY TIRED.

ACID PROBABLY IS NOT YOUR BEST FRIEND.

HAVING TO DO THIS RAPID FIRE.

YOU ARE LAUNCHING 10 BALLS AROUND OUT OF RACKS AND YOU HAVE TO DO IT RAPIDFIRE.

THE LAST RACK.

25 SECONDS.

TWO, TO GO.

RATTLES IN.

THE MONEYBALL IN RACK THREE OFF THE FRONT OF THE IRON.

THAT WOULD DO IT, EIGHT POINTS ON THE BOARD FOR GRIFFIN.

NOW, CHEROKEE, WHITECLIFFE, TURNER.

WHITECLIFFE AND TURNER, YOUR FINAL DUEL.

EIGHT POINTS ON THE BOARD.

YOU SITTING THERE SHOOTING ALL THESE THREES.

RAPIDFIRE SUCCESSION, I WONDER HOW TIRED THESE SHOOTERS ARE HAVING TO LAUNCH FROM A 45 DEGREE ANGLE OR AT THE EDGE OF A BASELINE?

FOR ME IT WAS A SHOT OR TWO AND I WAS DONE.

I WAS A PASSING GUARD.

I WAS A POINT GUARD.

I WAS NOT A THREE-POINT SHOOTER.

IF IT WAS IT WAS FROM LIKE 25.

RIGHT AROUND IN HERE.

FOR ME, I WAS RIGHT HERE AT ABOUT 45 DEGREE ANGLE AND 24 FEET.

THIS WAS MY SHOT.

ERNIE HAS SOME INFORMATION.

IN ADDITION TO BEING AN EXCELLENT PLAYER, HE GOT A SCHOLARSHIP FOR LACROSSE.

YOU WANT YOUR PLAYERS TO PLAY MULTIPLE SPORES.

THAT IS VERY COOL, BY THE WAY.

I AM GLAD ERNIE CAME OVER BECAUSE I'M SURE THE REST OF THE STATE DOES NOT WANT MY LIFE STORY ABOUT SHOOTING 24 FOOTERS.

I AM 100% AT TUSCALOOSA.

ONE SHOT, 25 FEET, WALKED OFF THE COURT AND I WAS DONE.

WE ARE IN RACK RACK NUMBER TWO.

CREEKSIDE IS LAUNCHING.

THEY FOUND THE SPOTS.

14 POINTS ALREADY ON THE BOARD WITH LESS THAN A MINUTE TO GO.

THE COURT RECORD IS 22?

WOW.

WE ARE AT 21 RIGHT NOW.

THEY ARE THIS CLOSE TO SETTING A NEW RECORD IN THE COMPETITION.

NO PRESSURE.

THREE, TO GO.

THIS CLOSE TO SETTING A RECORD.

OKAY, YOU TIED.

MONEYBALL SETS A NEW RECORD AND IT RAMMED OUT AT 22.

WE NOW HAVE CHAMPS IN THE THREE-POINT COMPETITION.

BEFORE ALL OF THE CLEANUP HAPPENS --ERNIE, MAY I TALKED TO THE WINNERS, PLEASE?

WHERE IS YOUR PARTNER?

ONE ON EACH SIDE.

YOU ARE GOOD.

THE OTHER SIDE, PLEASE.

WE WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE THE DUO OF WHITECLIFFE AND TURNER.

IT ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE A FIGURE SKATING THING.

THEY GET THE AWARDS FOR CHEROKEE.

I WANT TO ASK, SHOOTING THREES -- AND PLAYING THE CROSS --SHOOTING THREES, WHEN YOU GET TO A RHYTHM, HOW DIFFICULT WAS IT TO GET ADJUSTED?

THE ROOMS ARE MORE BOUNCY THAN USUAL SO IT TOOK A WHILE TO GET WARMED UP FOR THE SECOND ROUND I HAD TO GET WARM UP.

SOME ARE YOU MORE OF A PICK AND POP PERSON?

THIS YEAR I WAS A DRIVE AND FINISH GIRL.

I HAVE BEEN INTO THREES THIS YEAR, TOO.

LET'S GO TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE EQUATION.

DO YOU DIG SHOOTING THREES?

IT WAS A LOT EASIER ONCE I STOOD DOWN A LITTLE BIT BUT IT IS DIFFICULT FROM DIFFERENT RIMS.

HOW DIFFICULT WAS IT?

IN THAT WAS THE FIRST ROUND, I THINK I AM GOOD TO GO.

THE TWO OF YOU TIED THE RECORD FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP AT 22.

I WISH THE SCOREBOARD STILL HAD THE 22 UP.

YOU TIED THE RECORD AND YOU --GRAY SHOOTING FROM THE OUTSIDE.

CONGRATS ON THE CROSS.

VERY, VERY COOL.

BE GOOD, GO GET YOUR STUFF.

WE HAVE ONE AS THEY TIED A RECORD.

AS THE WINNERS GET METALS AND THEY GET CONGRATULATIONS FOR MAKING IT ONCE AGAIN HERE AT THE MACON CENTERPLEX, WHEN WE COME BACK IT IS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME THREE OF FOUR ON THE DAY.

THEY TIED THE RECORD.

ALMOST BROKE UP.

THAT WOULD'VE BEEN COOL.

WE ARE AT MACON COLISEUM, DAY NUMBER TWO COULD YOU GOT HERE ABOUT 4:00 WHAT DID YOU SAY OUT OF THE SECOND GAME OF THE DAY?

UNION COUNTY WERE BATTLING.

THEY DID NOT GIVE UP.

I LOVE THE SPORTSMANSHIP AFTER THE GAME.

BUTLER WON IT.

UNION COUNTY WAS SECOND.

UNION COUNTY STOOD THERE THROUGH THE TROPHY PRESENTATION.

THEY REALLY ARE GREAT WITH SPORTSMANSHIP RISK IN FROM A TV PERSPECTIVE I KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO GET THE GAMES ON AIR.

FROM AN ADMINISTRATIVE STANDPOINT, WHAT GOES INTO PUTTING IN A HUGE EVENT LIKE THIS?

WE TALKED ABOUT DARRELL AND ERNIE AND THE CREW, THEY STARTED PLANNING AND WORKING --IT IS NOT JUST THOSE GUYS.

WE HAVE GUYS LIKE ANDY --I BETTER NOT START NAMING THERE ARE TOO MANY.

THEY START WORKING IN OCTOBER WHEN BASKETBALL STARTS.

THEY PLAN AND LOOK AT THINGS.

TALKING TO OFFICIALS IN DIFFERENT ASSOCIATIONS.

SELECTING OFFICIALS AND HAVING THE DIFFERENT ZOOM MEETINGS WITH COACHES AROUND THE STATE TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY KNOWS LITTLE THINGS, TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER.

IT IS A LOT OF WORK.

OUR STAFF DOES A GREAT JOB.

IN MACON, THEY ARE SO SUPPORTIVE.

THIS IS A GREAT PLACE AND A GOOD CENTER PART OF THE STATE.

WE HAVE HAD AN ELECTRIC ATMOSPHERE TODAY.

WE HAVE HAD SO MANY FANS TRAVEL.

MURRAY COUNTY.

GREEN.

UNION COUNTY.

PURPLE, EVERYWHERE.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO THE COMMUNITY?

I THINK IT MEANS A LOT TO PACK THIS PLACE.

IT WAS SO LOUD, JUST HAD TO STOP FOR A MINUTE TO ENJOY THE GAME AND WATCH FANS.

IT IS EXCITING TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO COME TO A BIG PLACE LIKE THIS AND PACK THE PLACE.

JUST A CHEER FOR YOUR TEAM.

THIS IS THE LAST YEAR IT WILL BE HERE AT MACON COLISEUM.

WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF GHSA BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS?

IN STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS WILL BE BACK HERE -- OH, THIS ACTUAL FACILITY?

THEY ARE BUILDING ONE.

NEXT YEAR WE STILL WILL HAVE THIS FACILITY.

THEN WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE, IF WE ARE ABLE TO DO THAT?

I DON'T KNOW OF ALL THE PLANS IF THEY WILL KEEP THIS AND MAKE IT WHERE I CAN USE THAT WHILE THEY TEAR DOWN?

I KNOW MARCH 18th THEY HAVE A VOTE HERE, IF IT PASSES, THEY ARE READY TO ROLL WITH SOME PLANS.

WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THAT PASSES.

THE PLAN WOULD BE TO BE HERE NEXT YEAR.

EVEN THOUGH THEY WILL START CONSTRUCTION IT WILL NOT BE FAR ALONG.

WHAT IS ON YOUR WISH LIST?

MORE SEEDING OR PARKING?

THERE ARE FACILITIES AROUND THE STATE THAT WE COULD GO TO BED THEY HAVE BEEN REALLY GOOD TO US.

THIS IS A NICE PLACE.

WE WOULD WANT TO RETURN HERE IF CONSTRUCTION ALLOWS FOR I AGREE.

SHE SEES EVERYTHING AND EVERYBODY.

HAVING A PLAYER LIKE THAT IS PRICELESS.

THE COACH, AKENNIA ELLIS IS A STORY WITHIN HERSELF.

SHE IS THE GPB ALLSTATE GIRLS COACH OF THE YEAR.
