Warriors subdued by Blue Devils

By Tim Chambers

Happy Valley’s anemic offense over two quarters allowed Unicoi County to break open a close basketball game. The outscored the Warriors 30-12 in the second and third frames en route to its 59-45 victory.
Happy Valley led 13-8 after one and trailed by a slim 20-19 score at the half.
“We felt fortunate to be in the game, said Happy Valley coach Chuck Babb. “We were in foul trouble and had to go deep into our bench. The kids knew at halftime we couldn’t come out and go four minutes or more without scoring. It’s been that way nearly every game and I don’t know how to fix it. If I did I would.”
