The Greer Citizen (GC): What goals did you set for yourself coming into this season?
For the first time in his career, Byrnes head coach Layne Fowler walked out of Dorman Arena a winner.
It had been eight years since the Runnin’ Rebels knocked off the rival Cavaliers. Throughout Fowler’s 14-year tenure at Byrnes, they’d never beaten Dorman on the road.
Last week, all of that changed.
Nash Somero desperately wanted revenge.
Last year, when he stepped onto the court at Broome High School, Somero experienced one of the worst moments of his Blue Ridge basketball career.
After leading by as many as 12, his Tigers let the Centurions claw back. Broome hit a buzzer-beating layup to win by one point.
Riverside head coach Allen Arnold tried hard to come up with the right word to describe Drew Cannon.
