FINAL DILLARD 47 HILLSBOROUGH 44 Dillard is back in the title game AGAIN!!

[DILLARDBOYZ954]

Very aggressive game both teams want it dillard has to be more aggressive in the paint and make their free throws when they get to the line!!! 

The attendence at this game is putrid but that will be a separate thread about that there. 

Letsss goooo dillard !!!

[DILLARDBOYZ954]

Very intense game 

[DILLARDBOYZ954]

CONGRATS PANTHERS!!! after slipping up in districts we went the entire playoffs on the road ..we defeated a very good okachobee team we then defeated a big rival in Boyd Anderson who beat us just a week prior for the district title. Then we go on the road in a hostile environment against a team who was 30-0 and had won 51 consecutive games. Then in this state final 4 we go against a very stout terrier team who was 28-2 on the year one of those games was a forfeit because of county testing rules. And we came out on top again. Now we have a chance to win our third title in 4 years!!! 

[DILLARDBOYZ954]

Terriers came in on a 21 game winning streak so in Dillard’s last two games y’all @ColumbiaHighFan2017class @badbird @OldSchoolLion @954gator @gatormike20 Our opponents were a combined 59-2 on the year technically 59-1 because hillsborough had to forfeit their kruel classic game against Westminster because of testing per county rules. 

The overall comebined consecutive wins both teams came in on was a astonishing 72 consecutive games without a lost from both teams comebined just simply unreal. And the dillard panthers off 27th and 11th got it done. I couldn’t be more proud to be a panther man what this years boys team is doing as young as they are and with no clear cut big name player or transfer is just amazing.

I would expect Dillard to win but you still have to play well

Got that right nothing is a given but to be going for our third title in 4 years this time with a all new line up with no big name starter and the teams we had to go through to get to this point Is just wow!!

[uncleluke23]

Crestview schedule wasn't all that great but somehow they beat the runner ups from last year (choctaw) twice, who did play a tough ish schedule. I hope crestview pulls it out, the panhandle could sure use a basketball champion.

Their schedule is solid for their area

 

Can't expect a team in panhandle to play half their schedule against South FL

 

Frankly if South FL teams can't get a good schedule it's because they didn't try Because they can easily find teams within a hour or 2 that are nationally ranked

Crestview hasn't even been to final four since mid 80s

 

By comparison you all basically won a title a few days ago compared to last chance Crestview got

They can also travel look at Dillard we went to Vegas and I believe Carolina to play in tournaments our girls even go to Arizona to play in their tournament every year against the nations best teams. Other teams can do the same they don’t have to stay just in their city. 

You have even teams coming from across the country to play in south Florida kruel classic and city of psalm tournament

Dillard is a recognized powerhouse that other schools would likely pay to have them be involved in those big national tournaments

 

Nobody was beating down the door to get Crestview on the schedule

 

You should know that powerhouses programs can normally name their schedule because playing those big names will give the programs exposure since college coaches look at programs like a Dillard as great feeding grounds since they normally are a loaded team in terms of talent

Yeah they did and while I didn't go to the game I saw enough on Twitter to feel that night they would play Dillard in the finals 

 

I felt region 3 wasn't very strong and that Lehigh would get exposed as being a byproduct of a weak region

 

Crestview did bring a Good crowd though as did Columbia, saw pictures of both sides of gym packed for the game

was the gym a actual good size ? Lol and ok ok do Crestview have good size do go up against our 4 players that’s over 6’6.

[uncleluke23]

Crestview doesn't have any height. They beat Choctaw tho who had 8 players that were 6'4 and up. Choctaw was the team to beat in the area and their schedule reflected that.
