This game was just 27-15 at halftime. Very low scoring first half accompanied with very poor officiating. You would have thought the refs had been starved for 3 weeks prior to this game and they decided to eat their whistles. After a bunch of obvious flagrant fouls that were not called.....It finally got out of hand.
Abingdon players chose to shove Mac into the mats on 3 separate occasions and also shoved Dean after he made a steal...and only the last one was called a flagrant when Mac went into the mats. At that point Coach Vermillion had already had more than enough and his face was purple and he started walking towards Abingdons bench to have a little heart to heart with their Coach. Of course Scotty got T'd up for sticking up for his players and heading in their coaches direction....But he had full intentions of letting their coach have it and he made sure he got a few words to him from a distance.
This is now the 2nd game that a team has tried to wipe McClung out....Honestly suprised the kid hasn't been hurt already. I guess if some teams can't stop him they stoop low enough to try to take him out. Classless move on the coach and players part.....But oh well. I appreciate Scotty V and his love for his team and players. I think the guy would rip through an anvil over someone messing with his guys. No doubt the players appreciate him sticking up for them as much as the fans and parents appreciate it. You pull a stunt like these guys did tonight, you can expect to see the Purple Man on the sidelines raising hell on someone.
Abingdon took a good ole fashioned arse whipping in the end so it all worked out...Just lucky someone wasn't hurt. Wouldn't have hurt my feelings a bit to see the Devil's hang a hundo on them though.....But a 30 pt spread will suffice.

Good job Devils! Up next..... Rematch with Union. It's gonna be a good one. Head on out to Wise Tuesday night to catch this one if your in the area. Expecting maybe the biggest crowd that UVA Wise has ever seen.
