Erwin Boys Lose to Williamson
Posted by Glynn Wilson in Erwin Sports on March 2nd, 2007
The Erwin boys basketball team lost to Williamson Friday in a low scoring game, 47-31.
Williamson (32-2) frustrated Erwin (21-10) with a tight zone defense that bottled the Northeast region champs up all game long as the Eagles shot a dismal 24.3 percent from the field on 9 of 37 shooting for the game.
Also, here’s an interesting example of how newspapers are going local, local, local to try to stay in business. The Birmingham News did not have a story up before midnight on Friday, or even the score. Their stories are posted on their Website at like 4 a.m. or something with the “shovelware” Advent software they use.
But, they already had a photo gallery up of the Williamson game. Believe it? Or not…
