Knoxville Volleyball

Now that the KIL and Early Bird are history, maybe we can get a clear look at the top Knoxville teams.

 

Several Farragut posters (and the local paper) were touting the Lady Admirals, but as expected the best area team is Anderson County, by a mile.

 

AC has the best setter, libero, and hitters and they are young. They beat Farragut, at Farragut, and almost won a tough early bird. The only other Knoxville team to make the gold was Farragut who AC put out in the 1st round.

 

Each should win their district, but Farragut could be upset early.

 

Hardin Valley looked good, so did Webb and Heritage. Karns is not in the top 10 which is too much of a drop off for a team that made state the last 2 years. Oak Ridge is also weak. Catholic and CAK are good (I think Catholic could win their district) and I liked Grace Christian. Bearden and Maryville will be good.

 

Here is my new ranking.

 

 

 

1)Anderson County (by alot)

2)Farragut

3)Hardin Valley

4)Catholic

5)Webb

6)Heritage

7)CAK

8)Grace Christian

9)Bearden

10)Maryville

 

What surprised me is AC has 6 or 7 college prospects, and only 1 club player. What do they have in the water.

K2 should not be so quick to post (by a lot) ..... They did win in 3 but it was a hard fought game on both sides with 2 points separation on the 3rd ... It is a little early to post your number one status for East Knoxville.

The scores we're extremely close and the score between these two teams is now 3-3 in 2 matches this year IIRC. Is anyone interested in biased ranks? Not me.

 

Speaking of Knoxville volleyball, I heard that Webb's libero committed to UT. Can anyone confirm this?

Have AC and Farragut played more than once? According to the paper they have only played 1 time when AC beat them at the Early Bird????

 

The paper has AC with only 1 loss which was the finals of the early bird, am I missing something?

 

What is Farraguts record? Have they played Harin Valley yet?

AdmiralGlascow, I checked unapproved website and I only see where Farragut and Anderson County have played 1 time, and Anderson County won. That was in the early bird tournament at Farragut. When did they play the second time? Was it last night? I didn't see any score in the paper. What were the game scores?

 

Also, did Farragut lose to GPS in 2 in Chattanooga? I did not think GPS was that strong, did Farragut have someone hurt?

 

Has Hardin Valley played either Farragut or Anderson County yet? No one is talking about them, but I think they look fantastic and have alot of club involvement. This is a new school and you better watch them, because their athletics have gotten good in a hurry. It would not surprise me if they win the region. They beat Karns in 4 last week.

Orcat, They didn't have anyone hurt. GPS beat everyone they played this past weekend. If they gane a most improved award from week 1 to know GPS would get it. They didn't show a lot in the choo choo playday. South beat them without a problem then. They beat South twice this weekend before beating farragut. I got a text that Red Bank beat GPS in 5.

I am pretty sure AG is referring to the play day at Anderson when Farragut won over Anderson County. Yes, to Hardin Valley - but again a play day, and yes, Farragut won.

Yes, Farragut lost to GPS in 2 in Chattanooga in the gold bracket play after GPS beat Sullivan South in the final four. No one was hurt. Farragut played 10 games back to back with no break (with the exception of the drive from Red Bank to East Ridge) with GPS getting a needed rest before Gold Bracket championship. Hopefully Farragut will get a chance to play GPS next weekend.

When did Anderson County ever host a playday? Are you sure?

 

Does Farragut count playday wins on their record? I thought you only counted regular season wins and losses?

 

The way he posted it made it sound like Farragut had beaten AC for real. Does Farragut always count play days as real matches? Who else does that?

They don't count play days...it was pre season...and it is not in the overall record...can't speak for AG but I read it as FHS had just played AC and beat them...thats it...why read more in to it than that???

 

It was the best out of 5 and Farragut won....pretty sure the girls on both sides of the net thought it was real....some may be relieved that it was just a dream

    • hey goat! how’s monterey looking this year?! 
    • several people actually. they said “snoball, do you know who railbird81 is on coacht?” I said, “never heard of her.” they said, “you ought to check it out they’re getting fired up on there like the old days.” well, you can imagine my disappointment when I came here expecting sharp, witty banter and all i found was more akin to toddlers slap fighting. and what looks like 1 guy/gal talking to themselves with multiple accounts.
    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
