Last Sunday’s Parade Magazine announced the selection of the

first team.
Owen edged out
of state title
Owen’s bubble burst last weekend
when W arren County managed to edge
past the W arhorses 62-59 for the Boys
3-A State Championship.
Warren County’s Jerome Cooper hit
both ends of a one-on-one from the line
with 24 seconds remaining in the
fourth quarter to break a 59-59 tie.
There were several tum-abouts and
much high speed action, as the War
horses gave it all they had. As it turned
out, it wasn’t enough to penetrate the
Eagles’ defense.
Owen also had problems getting the
ball inside to Daugherty, who still
managed to shoot 10 and 10 free throws,
pull down a game high of 15 rebounds
and pour in a total of 26 points before
fouling out in the final seconds of the
game.
‘Tm not really disappointed,” said
Owen’s 6’llMi” senior center as he
made his last appearance in an Owen
uniform. “We gave it our best shot. We
played for the championship and we did
the best we could. It’s just one of those
things you have to learn to accept.”
Both teams exhibited tremendous
sportmanship. Owen’s coach Bill Bur
rows and the entire Owen team stood
and applauded the Warren County
players during the trophy presentation.
Brad Daugherty summed the game
up by saying, “The best team won...the
best team always wins. And in the
Eagles’ case, with their exceptional
speed, it was dear that they were the
better team.”
Owen finished their season with a
28-2 all-time record.
Owen is the only Buncombe County
boys’ basketball team to make it to the
state finals.
Members of the team are: senior
Brad Daugherty, center; senior Phil
Groce, forward; senior Keith Lanning,
forward; senior Keith Parker, guard;
senior Mike Gragg, guard; Junior Stacy
Ayers; senior Charles Bradley; junior
Jamie Hoefling; junior Jamie Rum
bough; junior Cecil Davidson; and
junior Gregg Reynolds.
Seniors Charles Bradley and Phil Groce walk away from their Anal game
for Owen with Coach Burrows.
