Who won the Dobyns Bennett and Knox Fulton game?

Let's hear it.

Dobyns-Bennett (Frosh) 9-0, have now gone 18-0 over the last two seasons.

Is this a Thursday night game?

I am interested in the season finishes for various schools in greater Kingsport. I would like to know the final/current records and season achievements of the teams listed below: Dobyns-Bennett (Varsity) Dobyns-Bennett (JV) Dobyns-Bennett (Frosh) Robinson (8th Grade) Robinson (7th Grade) Sevier (8th Grade) Sevier (7th Grade) Sullivan South (Varsity) Sullivan South (JV) Sullivan South (Frosh) Sullivan (Combined 7th and 8th Grade) Colonial Heights (8th Grade) Colonial Heights (7th Grade) Sullivan North (Varsity) Sullivan North (JV) Sullivan North (Frosh) North (Combined 7th and 8th Grade) Obviously some of this information is readily available, but some is not. Any information is appreciated.

Whomever wins the automatic bid from District 1 will be considered a #1 seed and will host a first round home game, regardless of their record. Atleast that is how I understand the playoff system. DB or SH, whomever wins, will not have to travel in the first round.

The juveniles go to Borden Park, why fight in the wide open of a parking lot located along a six lane highway when you can brawl in the Eastman bogland of Borden Mill?

Whats up Trisportsfan… it’s been a while. It sounds like you haven’t seen the Vikings this year either. We got a new paint job this year and it makes the Viking ship allot more aerodynamic…. get it… AERODYNAMIC. And we installed a secondary tester. Don’t get me wrong, Stubbs will still make you stop the run… but this year you will pay for being overzealous in the box (aka Watson Blitz Package). No, I haven't seen the Vikings play this year. I'm still taking in games in Kingsport and Bloomingdale most Friday nights. If the Vikings upgraded to a propeller based Destroyer, we must have relegated back to the hunter and gatherer days. I will say, though, we already pay for being aggressive on defense, every week. We're undersized but quick. Damage control is our best friend and, at times, is the name of the game. We'll be there in the fourth quarter, at that point it's up to the offenses. Will the invasion force and heat seaking missles beat out the basic ground attack and under ten rock throws? Who knows...the tortoise did beat the hare.

If Tennessee High wins, it won't be a blow out. They may ball control and nickel and dime the Tribe to death, but ole Catfish will have something in line to give the Indian offense a chance in the end. The man may be old and on his last legs before retirement, but he knows what he's doing. Nobody questions him or his coaching decisions quite like they do Clark. I trust in Watson, every Friday night. Roll Tribe.

Dobyns Bennett committed 10 penalties for 85 yards, committed 4 turnovers (2 fumbles/2 interceptions), total yards rushing were under 100 yards. The Tribe playoff outlook isn't looking good. Science Hill and Dobyns Bennett both sit at 1-1 in the standings, however the Indians have Sullivan South and Tennessee High waiting for them off their bye week.

Any opponent of Science Hill has my support. Go Vikings.

I don't know what the perfect optimistic opinion would be on the current state of the season. As we've seen, many of us have some different and some similar opinions. The meltdown we saw last Friday night was reminiscent of the meltdown against McMinn Co. last November. Sadly, both came on our own turf, literally. Although this week’s date with Daniel Boone somewhat worries me, as the Trailblazers are playing well of late, especially on defense, I feel this team is still struggling to find out what works on offense. I don’t feel the defense needs to be tweaked much. Though not an elite defense, Watson still has them playing on an above average level. Sadly they’ve spent too much time on the field in most games, as many players play both ways. Keep the mistakes to a minimum on offense, limit turnovers, and employ a smart game plan and I feel this offense can be successful. I trust the coaches and players will execute this week, and in weeks to come. Friday night, the stuff simply hit the fan and coated everybody on the home side. Let’s hope the stink doesn’t linger in weeks to come. The Indians go into the bye week 2-3 (2-0). Daniel Boone – 14 Dobyns Bennett – 28 Remember, we just have to finish with a better conference record than Science Hill to make the playoffs. If we finish with the same conference record, we must win the head to head. I'm to the point where I don't care how we get to the post-season, as long as we get there. I think many of you would agree.

Sadly I attended that crap.

I'm not excited, at all, about the schedule this year. I'm used to Sullivan South and Tennessee High being the local filler games. I'll be in Knoxville Friday night, however, Mellow Mushroom in Farragut for pregame.

What'd I miss gentlemen?

The football camps hosted by Dobyns Bennett have begun, getting the up and comings out, promoting the program and giving a few young ones who would have otherwise not a taste of the Indian way.

Sorry folks, I took about a three month hiatus from the boards. Working around twelve hours a day and going to school leaves the computer turned off most of the time. Have I missed anything?

It usually depends on which DB team shows up. They've shown both sides of the coin this year, good and bad. I'm hoping they put it all together when the time is right. They've improved since last year, that is apparent.

The three rivers being the Watauga, Nolichuky, and Holston?

Any news concerning the Big 8? Has there been anymore news concerning the away stands for some of the smaller stadiums in the Big 8? There was an article during the winter mulling over the idea of adding away stands in Volunteers stadium. I assume Daniel Boone, David Crockett, and Sullivan Central would be at a lose on the away side as well. Dobyns Bennett, Science Hill, Sullivan South, and Tennessee High have reasonable away stands.

Does anyone know the outcomes to the following games? 3/10 Sullivan Central @ Tennessee High - Score? 3/13 North Greene @ Sullivan East - Score? 3/13 Sullivan North @ Volunteer - Score? Were any of these games postponed or cancelled due to weather? Also, does anyone know if Daniel Boone actually got to play any games in the Hoover Tournament? If so, who were the opponents and what were the scores? Was the tournament rained out like so many others over the weekend? 3/13 Daniel Boone @ Hoover Tournament 3/14 Daniel Boone @ Hoover Tournament

Does anyone know if the Lakeway Classic games involving Big 9 teams were played yesterday (3/12)? Postponed? Cancelled? If they were played, what were the scores? @ Morristown West David Crockett vs. Knoxville Halls @ Morristown East Tennessee High vs. Grainger Tennessee High vs. Morristown East @ Cherokee Volunteer vs. Sullivan Central

Baseball season starts Monday, but I'm not quite ready to let go of basketball season. On the girls side, local teams represented nicely on Saturday, with 4 of 6 Region 1 teams advancing to State. I have a good feeling that Science Hill will advance by dispatching Oak Ridge in the Palace, however it is almost a fact that Morristown East will get massacred at Bearden. I feel Knox Carter at Union Co. is a push, while Unicoi Co. will come up short at Knox Fulton. I think Knox Grace will be too much for University High, with Cloudland and Rockwood going to the boys from Roane County. Going 1-5 in sectional games is likely on the boys side for local teams, hope I'm wrong. Here's a Dobyns Bennett fan from Kingsport pulling for the 'Toppers. I'll be making the trip and spending my money at your school tomorrow night, please use it to turn on the air!

The write up by Ron Bliss of tricitiessports.com had him finishing with 22 points (8 field goals made, 6-6 from free throws, total 22), 8 assists, 8 rebounds and 7 steals.
