The first player off Warrens bench played a lot of minutes in the JV game and 2 other JV players played significant minutes in the first half. Was just wondering what happened to them at Minford since it was my first time seeing them play.

I'm beginning to think Athens will never beat Warren.
WOW! Has Athens ever beaten Warren?4out1in wrote:final

Agree Minford 17,minford17 wrote:A little sluggish in the 1st half for Minford, but strong defensive and offensive effort in the 2nd half. Minford scored 45 points in the 2nd half, and had great balanced scoring. Minford had 5 in double figures, and nearly a 6th. Kelley, Rowe, Gullett, Shepherd, and Dalton all scored in double figures, and Alley added 8 points. Great job by all .
Athens had six DIVISION I athletes on a team and couldn't beat Warren - not sure how the table ever will turn if you can't beat em with that group.thebarlowbandit wrote:All tables turn in time, been some dandy games, Athens dealt some tough luck and adversity last couple of years, but they handle themselves well.
That being said, GoBlue
28 times? I must have missed 18 of them. I think it's 10 straight. I'm sure Athens holds the all time series. Warren won its first title ever in 2005. Warren has been very good the last 10 yearsJohnny Quest wrote:I believe the last victory Athens enjoyed over Warren was during the 2003-2004 season. If you count tournament and regular season games , the total is like 0-28.

Athens was (19-1) one year with 2 small college basketball plays (Corey Butcher & Collin Pfaff) - and a really good 6'4 forward in Frank Valantour - and could not beat Warren.
The Warren 'system' and their ability to play 'TEAM' basketball is the Bulldogs kryptonite. They can't overcome it. Not only that, the fundamentals Warren plays with is phenomenal. I don't know what age they learn them - or how Maddox gets his kids to play that way - but they are darn near perfect at it. Ball movement, screens, back door cuts, bounce passes, passes with purpose, always finding the open man, etc ... etc ... As a true basketball fan, and fan of kids playing fundamentally sound, I actually find Warren incredibly entertaining to watch.
,,, But that doesn't mean I like the Warriors!!!
I believe a great deal of the credit for Warren's success can be attributed to the program's Middle School coach, Rod Padgett. Coach Padgett does a great job getting his players to play fundamental TEAM basketball. He runs drills like those run in high school and impresses upon his players the importance of staying within the system. He coaches them to play to their strengths while strengthening their weaknesses. Coach Padgett's success has resulted in a number of Washington County basketball championships for both 7th and 8th grades including two or three teams that went undefeated through BOTH 7th and 8th grades. When Coach Maddox gets these players at the high school, the players already have a fairly firm grasp of what team basketball is all about and tend to be very coachable. Coach Padgett is Warren's little known "secret weapon" who provides the system with players coached to continue BIG BLUE success.93Bulldog wrote:Athens had six DIVISION I athletes on a team and couldn't beat Warren - not sure how the table ever will turn if you can't beat em with that group.thebarlowbandit wrote:All tables turn in time, been some dandy games, Athens dealt some tough luck and adversity last couple of years, but they handle themselves well.

... warriornation123 - I agree 100% about Coach Padgett ... not only an excellent coach/teacher of the game he emphasizes fundamentals/TEAM over "W's" - the W's come with good fundamentals & TEAM ... he doesn't let the best athletes "slide by" he does it the way it should be done - makes those gifted athletes just as fundamentally sound as the good players that he makes better because of the skills he works on ... gotta love "systems" like this ... AND besides being a quality coach/teacher of the middle school youngsters Coach Padgett is a heck of a nice guy !!! ...warriornation123 wrote:I believe a great deal of the credit for Warren's success can be attributed to the program's Middle School coach, Rod Padgett.
