CONGRATULATIONS to the Floydada Whirlwinds as they pull off as upset win against the Childress Bobcats with a 76-48 win at home tonight. Floydada now improves their record to 12-10 and 3-1 in district play. The Whirlwinds jumped out to an early lead in the first quarter and maintained that lead throughout the game. Using all players both offensively and defensively the "Winds" charged ahead in the second half and never looked back. The 6'2" Sophomore Titus Miller rained down a season high 19 points (several of those from "down town") as well as 5 rebounds and a performance worth bragging about. Kevin and Kody Smith twin Juniors wiped away any chance of the Bobcats getting the rebounds. Payte Beedy (averaging 10.4ppg) who has been struggling with a deep thigh injury since football season showed no signs of pain tonight, as he pulled down 9 points of his own, and the "High Rise" Douglas Williams (averaging 17.33ppg) put together another high light reel performance. The Whirlwinds now easily in second place in District 2-3A play have sight of a District Championship on the horizon. We will travel a little closer to that horizon on Friday where the Winds will challenge the Abernathy Antelopes. For those of you within listening range I encourage you to tune us in on KFLP 106.1 FM for the game, the girls will be broadcast at 6:30pm and the boys will follow at about 8pm. For those who are not, join me here Saturday for a recap of Friday's performance.
