And the purpose of your comment is.....

Information or investigation

8th graders can't do anything in a HS setting except weights and conditioning. Per TSSAA, 8th graders can't shoot or play with a HS until middle school is out.

8th graders can go to any open gyms they want but not to work with HS players.

They can not participate in any open gyms at a HS. 615-889-6740 ask for Gene Menees

To turn this into something positive.... who are the best 8th graders in Tennessee?

Here is a thought! 8th graders IF they are in the SAME school building as the high school, have the same right to use the gym as anyone. Many single "A" schools have this situation. Here is a good example, many 8th graders, based on the coaches opinion, play on the high school team, while in the 8th grade.

 

And GCP, odds are the best 8th graders are the ones working out with the high school!! LOL

Best 8th graders? Keayonna Bourne from Farragut is definitely one of the best, maybe the best.
Justice Pearson - Hillcrest/Obion Co
Dymond Smith - South Fulton.
Je'Mya Glenn - 3Oaks/Dyer Co
Shakiya Crumble - Lake Co
Samariah Thompson - Dyersburg

Some of the best I know of.

Sloan Mann and Kursten Hawkins at Moore County. Both started on varsity this year and averaged 15 ppg respectively. They also started 3 others in several games. That is unheard of to start 5 eighth graders on HS level.

With all due respect to those young ladies, district 9A is far from the best... It's actually not good at all. There are only two future NCAA D1 players that are currently in High School in that district and they are Sarah Pierce from Community and Caitlyn Yost from Forrest. The bottom teams in that conference are absolutely awful.
