Tipton Won the Sectional!

by Briana on March 9, 2009

devillogoWith another hard fought game, our Tipton Blue Devils won the Sectional against Guerin High School.  Very exciting to win Sectionals 2 years in a row! Lots of credit goes to our team who has worked hard all season!

Of course, I loved what the opposing coach had to say about my cousin:

“I thought we played tentative and [the Devils] can do that to you — they play very physical and they’re very strong,” Guerin coach Pete Smith said. “[Greg] Dickey makes their defense go with his ball pressure. Bradley [Yust] doesn’t see very much ball pressure like that. That was one of the toughest nights he’s had all season, and that’s a credit to Dickey.”

We will now face Ft. Wayne Luers yet again. This year the outcome WILL be different than last year. It is bound to be a good game and possibly the “real” state championship as it is the #1 (us)  and #2 (Luers) teams in the state facing off. Last year Luers after defeating us in the Regional Championship, Luers went on to win the state.

I took a ton of videos with my flip camcorder after the game and will work on putting together a video montage.

Here’s a couple of good links:
