Coach guides Spartans to victory against city rivals
To watch Bill Whitehead and Troy Graefe at their best Friday night was like having a front-row seat for a chess match.
No, it wasn't boring.
It was strategy at its best.
Whitehead, forever a tactician, worked the officials and his Greeley West team to make all of the right moves in the Spartans' 53-41 victory over Graefe's Wildcats.
Methodically -- how else would Whitehead approach anything -- the West head coach never once let Graefe see him sweat as the Spartans established play in the paint early in the second period while Greeley Central found itself helpless without much of a perimeter game to respond -- thanks largely to an improved West defense.
In the Wildcats' one-point victory over West earlier this season, it was no secret that the Wildcats had one of their best defensive games of the season and were able to take advantage of some key outside shots to send West shaking its heads.

Kay Scarpetta knifed by Agent Lesbian
LIKE all the best romances, it began with a smouldering glance and "electricity in the air". It ended with a bungled kidnapping, attempted murder and salacious accounts of lesbian hanky panky. More than a decade after Patricia Cornwell, the bestselling crime novelist, was unwittingly thrust into an explosive tabloid saga involving revenge, obsession and scantily clad FBI agents, one of the leading characters has decided to tell her story. In Twisted Triangle, a book to be published in April, Cornwell’s brief lesbian dalliance with an FBI instructor named Margo Bennett is subjected to excruciating scrutiny - not to mention excruciating prose of the "As their eyes met . . ." variety. Bennett’s decision to tell her story to a professional ghost-writer has reopened a painful but mostly farcical episode of seduction, betrayal and bullet-proof vests.
