Lady Dogs Overcome
Cedar Shoals, 61-41
The Forsyth County Lady
Bulldogs gained a very im
portant 8-AAAA sub-region
victory last week with a 61-41
win over the Cedar Shoals
Lady Jaguars.
Going into the contest the
Lady Dogs were five and
four with two sub-region
games left to play after the
Cedar Shoals game and the
Lady Jaguars were five and
three with three games left
following their game against
Forsyth.
South Gwinnett and
Berkmar are pretty well set
at one and two in the sub
region standings so what
Forsyth is shooting for now
is a third place finish. Third
place would enhance the
Lady Bulldogs’ position in
the opening round of the
tournament. The Lady Dogs
still need to win their final
two-sub-region games to
assure themselves of this
third place finish and their
win over Cedar Shoals was a
big step toward this goal.
Forsyth jumped to an ear
ly 6-3 lead in the first quarter

on baskets by Stacy Bennett,
Tracey Gossett and Darla
Sexton at which time Cedar
Shoals called timeout.
After play resumed, Cedar
Shoals managed to pull
ahead at 9-6 with 2:30 left in
the quarter. Forsyth’s Amy
Cullen put her team back on
top, 10-9, with 2:04 left. A
free throw by Gossett made
it a two point game at 11-9
with just under two minutes
left in the quarter. The Lady
Dogs were not able to con
nect for any points during
the rest of the period but
Cedar Shoals tallied six
points to gain a 15-11 lead as
the quarter ended.
For the quarter, Cedar
Shoals hit on seven of 11 field
goal attempts and was good
on one of two free throws
while Forsyth managed only
five of 18 from the field and
one of four at the charity
stripe.
The Lady Dogs shot an
even poorer percentage
from the field in the second
quarter hitting only three of
14 shots but again as they did
in quarter number one, they
had an advantage in re
bounds and their tight,
hawking defense allowed
Cedar Shoals only three
buckets.
Bennett got Forsyth
started in the second quarter
making two from the free
throw line to put the score at
15-13. Cedar Shoals
countered with a basket of
their own. Forsyth’s Paula
Nix hit a 12 foot jumper and
Cullen added two free throws
to tie the game at 17 with
three minutes left, the first
tie since 1:46 of the first
quarter.
Cedar Shoals then reeled
off four points but the For
syth ladies fought back and
with less than a minute left,
tied the score at 21 on Sex
ton’s short jumper and so the
score stood at intermission.
The difference made up in
the score differential during
quarter number two was
Forsyth’s four for fouj:
shooting at the charity line.
H —(-+
The third period saw
Cedar Shoals take charge in
the early going and assume a
19-15 lead. Two free throws
by Gossett pulled Forsyth
within two points and then
Lady Bulldog Dawn Brown
hit a shot from the baseline
to tie the game with 4:36 left
in the period.
The final four and one-half
minutes belonged to Forsyth
as they outscored Cedar
Shoals 11-6. Sexton proved to
be the Cedar Shoals’ nemisis
as she scored all of her nine
third quarter points in the
final half of the period to
give the Lady Bulldogs a 40-
35 lead after three stanzas.
For the quarter, both
teams took 15 shots from the
floor but Forsyth was ac
curate on nine while Cedar
Shoals hit only seven. The
Lady Dogs were three of four
from the foul line. Cedar
Shoals did not shoot any free
throws during the quarter.
The fourth period was
dominated in every positive
aspect by the Lady Bulldogs.
Brown started the fourth
quarter scoring when she hit
a layup off the opening tip on
an assist from Gossett. The
Lady Dogs tallied six more
unanswered points to put the
score at 48-35 and force
Cedar Shoals to call a
timeout.
After the timeout, Forsyth
extended their lead to 52-37
before Cedar Shoals called
another timeout. But, the
timeout didn’t help and as
play resumed the Lady
Bulldogs reeled off another
five straight points to ice the
game away.
Cedar Shoals applied their
last timeout of the game with
22 seconds left for no ap
parent reason because the
score stood at 59-41, For
syth’s favor.
The timeout only served to
give Lady Dog Laura Hicks
a chance to relax and hit
Forsyth’s 60th and 61st
points from the foul line
when play resumed.
For the quarter Forsyth
hit seven of nine field goal at
tempts, eight of 12 free
throws and had eight re
bounds and holding Cedar
Shoals’ point production to a
mere three field goals for the
period.

We Aren't Angry!
We're Highly Amused!
A neighbor asked us the other day whether we
are angry because so many people are selling so
many different wood and coal burning stoves,
heaters and furnaces these days in competition
with us. He was surprised when we smiled and
told him that we merely are highly amused by
what we read and hear these days in woodstove
and coalstove advertising. If you can believe the

"But," our neighbor said, "So many people are
buying those commercial stoves instead of what
you sell!" We answered by saying that we have
faith in the American people. The American peo
ple are not stupid--they just are slow to change
their purchasing habits. A few years ago, most
Americans never had heard of such names as
Mercedes, Volkswagen or Honda, but look at how
many of them you see on the streets and
highways these days! Most Americans these days
never have heard of the world's most famous
stove manufacturers such as Jotul (since 1835),
Morso (since 1847) or Stitl (since 1316 -that's
right -- 1316!) and it will take a while longer for
them to learn. But it won't take a very long time
for most Americans to learn the difference bet
ween the "make-a-buck" commercial stoves and
the world's finest coal and wood fired heating ap
pliances because about 3.8 per cent of all
American stove buyers already have waked up to
the difference! In less than 3 years, almost
everyone will have waked up!
The reason we can afford to smile is because
people who buy the wrong stove the first time will
buy the right stove from us after they have learn
ed the difference between stoves the hard way!
