I have read alot of talk about Beech's run, the question is can beech stop an offense that has not been stopped all year. The only lose was to an Indy team who's line would make BAMA proud, they had the biggest line I have seen in years at the high school level, but they did not stop Columbia's offense. The way I see it Beech fans is if your run game is as good as you say it is, all Coumbia has to do is stop one third and short play and force a punt get a head buy one touch and lets see you guys do something no other team has been able to do, stop an offense that has weapons everywere. they only team that can stop Columbia is Columbia. Lions play your game, stay focused and please do not read coacht until next Saturday all this stuff we fans say will just get in your heads and coaches it will! Cookeville beware the LION NATION is coming!!!!!!

Game will be 7:00 tuesday night Columbia vs Riverdale at the Stadium.

even though columbia is seeded higher than Lawrence Co. Columbia comes from a lower bracket game. 4( Columbia) and 5 seed plays #1 seed. and 6(lawrence Co.) and 3 seed plays #2 seed. Lawrence Co did not know that they were not supposed to beat the # 3 seed so it seems upside down but it really is not.

Sorry about the wrong state. CA is missing you, but let me tell you the goalie last night played very well I thought. I know she allowed 4 goals but she stopped alot more. And she will only get better as the year goes. good luck CA and keeper if you are reading this keep your head up and keep learning you have until Oct.

Columbia and Seigle rained out! will try to play Tues. Aug. 18th

It was moved to Aug. 13th.

keep in mind one thing CA at this moment has NO goalie, Courtney Barker who would be a senior and a very good keeper moved to Mo. and so far as far as I know their freshman keeper is playing travel softball and has not commited to even play soccer. I hope the team can talk her into playing they need her and she is a great goalie or what ever position she wants to play!

My bad. this whole re-district thing will take a year to figure out. Page is in 11 and spring hill is in 12 that makes TSSAA since. Spring hill is only what 10 miles from page but how far from Wayne county? But that is a whole nother thread! Lets don't save fuel or keep these kids off the highways. 1 Giles 2 Spring Hill 3 CA

I do not know who all is in 12A-AA but the top three will be in this order 1 giles co 2 page 3 ca and giles will win the region

Columbia lost alot. Very stronge class last year. but they return some great talent that know how to win. They also have a host of travel freshman that should be able to play, they were a very strong middle school team last year. It is tough for freshman to compete in this district but maybe a couple can. I understand they had the largest number to try out ever for the girls. So maybe Columbia soccer is growing. No one moved out and no one moved in just home grown talent! I heard that columbia academy lost their senior goalie, I hate to hear that. Time will tell, lets just see what coach kit has up his sleeve this year.

Columbia 3 McMinn Co 0

Just like most games both teams can look at the ref and say he called against them I think the ref over all did a good job! I did not agree with the pk I feel the goalie had a right to come out and get the ball he played the ball not the player, even though he missed. but my opinion. It looked as if Coumbia dug a little bit deeper when they got tired than Riverdale did. Good luck to both teams, they both have tough games ahead. Some great soccer was played last nite!

It is harder to win when you have to step on the pitch!

I know columbia had aready set a 2:00 time for a game on Sunday, so yes the game could have been played. there are alot of travel players on these teams, this would not have been moms first Mothers Day at a soccer field. I really think that it shows a lack of respect for Columbia and Franklin Co. to say ok we won't play today it is too wet so when we get to the reg. finals we will decide both trophies. columbia gave riverdale all they wanted the first meeting. and both district 8 teams are playing with as much heart as any one in the state. I hope the district 8 boys are reading these post from the players in 7 and play with a chip on their shoulders. This is a new season the past is the just that, please ya'll keep looking forward to Thursday night!

the game was not played because Tullahoma refused to play for some reason.
