Three weeks after playing for the Class 3-A state football championship, Bluffton High School players and coaches sill haven't had much time to reflect on their team's record-breaking season.
Many players transitioned to basketball. Head coach Ken Cribb prepared for and coached on the Shrine Bowl staff. And linebacker Michael Grant started in the all-star game.
But given a moment, in the quiet confines of a school deserted for the holiday break, three of the Bobcats' key components reflected on a 14-1 season, which ended with a loss to South Pointe in Clemson's Memorial Stadium.

Hilton Head Christian Academy's run to the SCISAA Class 2-A football title delayed its boys basketball team's start together.
And in recent weeks, between a full slate of games and the Thanksgiving holiday, the Eagles have had few chances to practice on consecutive days.
But a recent stretch of three straight practices allowed coach Kenny Conroy to install remaining offenses and defenses. And a more well-refined and multiple-look Eagles squad showed off their versatile sets en route to winning the boys championship Saturday at the RET Thomas Memorial Holiday Tournament. The Christian Academy defeated rival Hilton Head Prep 48-30 to earn the hardware and avenge a loss to the Dolphins in last year's final.
