With the blind draw (one exception that teams from the same region be placed on opposite sides of the bracket), I'm surprised nobody has pointed out that it was impossible for the draw to take place until after the two matches today.  Same for AAA soccer and AA Softball.

 

In A-AA, there are only 2 groups of teams which had to be placed on opposite sides of the bracket (CPA-Page & JC-JNS).  While the other two pairs from Regions 1-2 and 3-4 were placed on opposite sides to eliminate the possibility of the Boyd-Louden and MCM-MH winners being on the same side, there was a 50-50 chance of Greeneville-CAK and MCM-Boyd being grouped on the same side, as they had of being put on opposite sides.  They did the same thing with AAA (only 4 teams had to be split).  AA softball (as of now with the one remaining game) only had 4 which needed to be split.

 

All this to say, I am not questioning whether the draw was done blind - although they really should broadcast it live as it would take little more than an iPhone using FaceTime broadcasting live it on a YouTube channel.  But these three draws were not done according to the rules as they put specific teams on opposite sides of the bracket when there is no requirement to do so, nor is there a provision which permits it.

 

We will face Central Magnet for the 4th straight year, quarters in '14 and '15 and semis last year.  Should be a great match as they looked good today coming from behind 1-0 to force overtime with Louden and then putting the match away in OT.

 

See everyone in the 'Boro on Tuesday.

Reaction, not trying to 'out you' on these boards (seems like several already know who you are), but your initials wouldn't happen to be S.A. would they?  This is Drew Howe.  I was at the Hixson game and saw you were helping out Dustin.  Good for you man.  It's great to see what a program he has built since I left.  Wish I could have played on a team with that much skill while in high school. 

 

How did they look against merrol?  Tough opening game draw...any chance they beat CAK?

Hey man ya it's me. I wish I could of seen you at the game. The program has came a long way since we were playing. We played a pretty good game against Merrol Hyde. They played 6 in the back and made it tough for us to get a goal. Luckily a freshman stepped up and got it done. CAK is a tough first round draw, but our kids are ready for the challenge. They are not happy with just getting in the tournament.

Boyd just has so much more skill through the whole team than they did 15 years ago, and the Wood kid is the real deal.  If he was a little bigger he could play college ball.

      GoFundMe for Blackman Freshman with Spinal Cord Injury

      By mat73557 · Posted

      QUICK UPDATE -  First, I see a lot of wrestling names that I recognize on that GoFundMe.  THANK YOU so much for helping this family.   After the long surgery on Sunday morning to repair his neck, Jacob suffered a collapsed lung.  Sometimes this happens after long surgeries.  They had to put him on a ventilator to get his breathing back on track.  He came off the vent on Monday morning and they put a BIPAP on him to help control his breathing.  As of today, Thursday, the BIPAP came off and he is breathing well on his own.  He is working towards drinking a glass of water and hopefully eating some solid food at some point in the near future. Jacob can "feel" when someone touches his legs, but there is still no movement.  His parents are beginning to prepare for him to be moved to the Shepherd Center in the next few days.  He will be there in Atlanta for 30-45 days.  Im sure he will receive excellent treatment. Please continue to pray for healing for him and if you are so moved, please contribute to the gofundme link above to help in any way you can.  The go fund me is doing well, but this is going to be a very long road for these guys Im afraid.. Thanks again! Sells
