Catching Controversy | The Legend of Ethan Woy

Good update, I know the future. Don't click you don't wanna know.
 
he's gonna be starting before the end of the and season and is gonna put Johnny Flynn on the bench and Johnny is going to have to go play pro ball over seas because Woy took his spotlight away. :doh:

That's funny cause Flynn's a PG and Woy's a SG. :facepalm: :tongue:

St. John's Red Storm (6-7) at Syracuse Orange (9-5)

Woy's Word
The crowd erupted when we came out of the tunnel. We were on a two game losing streak...but it was the first time some of my fellow classmates got to see me play basketball and plus there were some famous commentators there.

"Watch out for the freshman guard Ethan Woy! I really believe he's got the skills to make a big impact in this game tonight. The diaper dandy has great athletism."

Well that was one way to get me fired up; Dick Vitale praising my game so far. I came out ready to give the home fans a show, if I got enough chances.

...

"Now checking in for the Syracuse Orange, number 15 Ethan Woy."

...

Right away, I wanted to make my presence known. I took the ball to the basket the first time I got it and slammed in a thunderous dunk. This got the crowd fired up and by the end of the half, I had 10 points.

However, St. John's kept my production minimal for most of the second half. We were down by five with 2:45 left when I brought the ball down the court. I passed it to Jonny then came around the baseline to get an open shot in the corner. As I let go, the Red Storm defender knocked me over and I heard a whistle.

...

"Woy for three...it's good and the foul! Wow, what a clutch shot by the freshman!"

...

I hit the foul shot and went to work after that. St. John's missed a shot and I grabbed the rebound. I quickly made my way down the court and slammed home another basket, getting the crowd even more amped up. Then St. John's came down the court and their point guard went to drive into the lane. I stepped up looking for the charge, but when he pulled up for a jump shot, I leaped up and got all of it. Andy grabbed the ball and broke down the left side of the court and I trailed right behind him. When he took a few steps inside the three-point line, he looked back and passed me the ball. With no one on me, I took a "heat check" shot, and it showed how hot I was.

Swish.

...

*TWEET*

"Timeout St. John's."

"Oh man, Ethan Woy's a PTPer baby! He's on fire!"

...

St. John's never recovered and we left the Carrier Dome with our first conference win.

Syracuse 70
St. John's 58

Georgetown On My Mind

After defeating St. John's and getting back in the win column, we dropped a controversial game against Rutgers. Finally realizing that we needed to get our heads out of our asses, we went on a roll, winning the next four games.

However, the next week on the schedule read simply this: "Rivalry Week." The week where the nation's biggest rivalries were on center stage. The matchups like UNC/Duke and Kansas/Missouri keep the college basketball fan wanting more every minute.

Georgetown. The entire campus was buzzing about this one. With myself being a North Carolina fan in high school, I never knew how big the Syracuse/Georgetown rivalry was until I saw some of the shirts going around for the student section. I knew I would be introduced to the rivalry in a big way though.

...

"I'm starting?"

"Yeah Ethan, we wanted to change up the lineup a bit. You alright with that?"


"Hell yeah I'm down. I love the spotlight."

"I could tell with your headlines off the football field this year."

"Coach, I didn't mean it like that."


"Of course you didn't."

Coach didn't seem too happy with me, like he just found out about the near-death experience and the suspension. However, it looked like he was sticking with his gut and he would start me against Georgetown.

...

"Ethan, wake up."

I slowly opened my eyes then shielded them from the light coming through the window. When I finally opened them the whole way, I looked to my right to see Delone standing there. Despite it not being football season anymore, Delone and I decided to continue to room together as he prepared for the NFL Draft.

"What up D?"

"Umm...you're not going to be too happy when you look outside."

I was still a little drowsy, but that statement woke me up fully.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Here. Look out the window."

Stepping over some dirty clothes, I completely opened up the blinds and looked to the sky.

"D, I don't see anything."

"Look down."

Looking down, I saw my car with spray paint covering it...

------------------------------------------------------------------------​

"Yo, what's going on?"

"Oh shit, he's here."

"Dude, I have no clue who did this."

"Did wha...what the fuck!?"


Fuck your overrated ass Woy. #15's going home on a stretcher Friday night. - Cody Swope

------------------------------------------------------------------------​

...and immediately thought of that day of the Tussey Mountain game. I sprinted downstairs to find the 'graffiti' on my vehicle.

Stick to football you bitch, you're much less likely to get hurt playing it.

I don't think it was a player this time that did this and I quickly found out that I wasn't the only one that had their car fucked with.

*RING RING RING*

"Hello?"

"Yo Ethan, did you get your car marked?"

"What the fuck? Yeah I did! Are you telling me that yours was..."

"Try the entire fucking team. I guess one of their fans decided to come up to the 'Cuse early and pulled a prank."

"This same shit happened to me at my high school."

"Damn, really?"

"Yeah, the fucking cornerback at my school's rival marked up my truck."

"Did you do anything about it?"

"Hell yeah I did. I posed as their AD and called into the school. I verbally bitched out that faggot over the loudspeaker later that day."


"Haha, that's fucking great man. You think we can do something similar here?"

I thought about it for a second. Surely there could be a way to fuck with them, to get them back.

"Nah. Let's just beat their asses tomorrow night."

"Yeah, you're right. We got this."

"Damn right we do."


Tuesday night would be interesting to say the least.

Here's the stats and scores to the games before Georgetown. In the basketball portion of the story, most of the games don't hold any significance to the story, so that's why they don't get their own updates. Besides, my goal is to get done with this by January/February, so I will really need to pick up the pace. Updating on basketball games that don't matter will slow down the story.

at Rutgers (10-5) | L, 67-71 | 16 pts, 3 asts, 5-9 FG, 2-2 3PT, 4-4 FT
at West Virginia (9-7) | W, 83-72 | 12 pts, 4 reb, 4 ast, 6 TO, 2-4 3PT
vs. Rutgers (11-5) | W, 87-73 | 15 pts, 4 reb, 2 blk, 6-9 FG, 2-2 3PT
vs. DePaul (10-6) | W, 86-78 | 18 pts, 5 TO, 6-11 FG, 2-5 3PT, 4-5 FT
vs. Providence (12-9) | W, 82-70 | 5 pts, 1 ast, 5 PF, 1-4 FG, 1-2 3PT

Georgetown - Round One

Syracuse.png

Georgetown Hoyas (11-6) at Syracuse Orange (14-6)

Woy's Word
Maybe it was the vandalization to my vehicle, but this game was starting to remind me more and more of the game against Tussey Mountain in football. I was starting to grow a lot of hatred towards their school, and I haven't even met any of their players yet.

I got to an empty Carrier Dome very early and sat there in the student section. Staring at the court, I started to focus more on the task on hand - beating Georgetown. I didn't want to beat these guys; I wanted to slaughter them. I wanted to leave the sting of knowing they would have to deal with losing to us for the next three years. It was going to be a mission of mine to beat Georgetown every single time we play them while I'm at Syracuse.

As I finished collecting my thoughts, the rest of the team appeared and we made our way to the locker room. I put on that number 15 jersey, once worn by freshman phenom Carmelo Anthony. It was him that carried his team to a championship, and it was going to be me that carries this team from this point on. I put in my earbuds and drifted into a soft sleep until I was awaken rudely by Coach Boeheim's voice.

"Are you going to sleep during the game, Woy?"

Jonny nudged me to get my attention, cause I didn't know Coach was talking to me.

"What Coach?"

"Well it's nice of you to join us Mr. Woy."

Coach obviously wasn't very happy that I slept through half his speech but it didn't make an impact on whether I would start or not.

...

"And starting at guard, freshman, number 15...ETHAN WOY!"

The crowd erupted into a large cheer, possibly the loudest I've ever heard. I jumped off the bench, shook John Thompson's hand and muttered "good luck," then went down the line and slapped everyone's hand before doing my thing with Jonny. We got down and got the rest of the team fired up before the lights slowly turned back on. It was finally time.

We got the opening tip and immediately pushed the ball down the court. Jonny made a beautiful crossover move and drove down the lane, hitting an easy lay-up. Then with their point guard's back turned, I left my man and doubled the ball. It led to a steal and a thunderous dunk, giving us a 4-0 lead and the early momentum.

However, there's a reason why they are Georgetown. They stayed close and with four minutes left, they pulled away to a 15 point lead. The game seemed lost until...

"Woy for three...it's good! Syracuse down 12 now!"

I went into 'Black Mamba' mode and called for the ball every time down the court. A lay-up here, followed by a steal, then a jumper from the foul line and suddenly it was eight point game. I pulled down a rebound and kicked it out to Jonny, who drove the length of the court before getting fouled as he went up for contested lay-up. He only hit one of two foul shots and it was a seven point differential with two minutes left.

Thompson's face had a confused expression on it, like he didn't know whether to call a timeout or not. Georgetown needed a way to kill our momentum.

"Woy for three again...got it! Syracuse cuts it to four! Timeout Georgetown!"

And that timeout did it. We went ice cold from there and didn't score a single point as the Hoyas added six to put it away. Georgetown won round one of our battle.

Georgetown 87
Syracuse 77
