AS EYEWITNESS NEWS REPORTER KENNIE BASS TELLS US, A COUPLE OF FIRST ROUND FOES HAD TO OVERCOME PLENTY OF SNOWY ADVERSITY JUST TO MAKE IT TO CHARLESTON. Kennie Bass/Eyewitness News: It's tough enough to make it to the state tournament. Only eight teams in each class qualify. But when you throw in what many are calling the worst winter in memory, the job gets even harder. For Tucker County and Midland Trail, first round Class Single A opponents, Old Man Winter was as formidable a foe as any hoops team. Tom Gutshall/Coach, Tucker County Greg Crist/Coach, Midland Trail: Kennie Bass/Eyewitness News: Combined, the Mountain Lions and Patriots had more than 40 games and practice sessions cancelled because of heavy snows. The coaches for both squads say overcoming so much off-the-court adversity makes this trip to Charleston even sweeter.
