GARNETT Losses where you play great are maybe the most bitter pill to swallow.
Sometimes you bring a winning effort but luck and happenstance stand in the way of actually being able to draw a W next to your name after the final buzzer.
Such was the situation for the Iola boys who gave a talented and previously ranked Anderson County team all they could handle on their home floor Saturday after a full week off. The Mustangs lost to the Bulldogs, 57-54.
I heard one of their guys walking off the court say that this was the worst that they had played all year and there is a reason for that, Bycroft said. We busted our tails on the defensive end. Everyone did. I cant be more proud of what we did to them defensively.
