Robert Hester, Founder of BladenOnline.comMcDonald’s girls All American game, seen around the world on ESPN2 last night, and coached by an All-Star coaches team from Bladen County, NC. Did you see the game? Talented young ladies from all across the US, molded into a team, in a short time. East team coached by Patty S. Evers, girls basketball coach at East Bladen High School in Bladen County, NC, USA and assisted by Alan West and Megan Kirby. Their team jumped out to early lead and never trailed … Final Score East 95 – West 75. You can have all the talent in the world, but without someone to mold them into a team, a lost cause. Last night, a great team, and a great coaching staff…

East boys won their championship game, 105-81 … A couple of Duke bound participants, Dariq Whitehead and Mark Mitchell, looked good. The games were played at Wintrust Arena in or near Chicago.

Bladen County is a small, rural area of southeastern North Carolina, and despite limited resources, and despite what some say, some talented folks and many who contribute daily to making Bladen County a better place to live, work and play.

Final days of March, 2022 have arrived … How are you doing with your New Year’s resolutions … Still time to make them come true…

Bad news continues to flow from the Russian/Ukraine region. Pray for a settlement that brings peace, not bombing and killings … Pray for peace…
