How long has Jones been out? What happened? I don't know much about Mitchell but I know that loosing your "best" guy is tough!

There's another great article in the Tennessean and about 5 photos from the game. http://www.tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/ar...ONTPAGECAROUSEL

Harpeth and Creekwood have played three times. Harpeth won two of the three meetings. Once 68-54, the other 59-46. Creekwood won the 2nd matchup 47-46. CPA has beat Harpeth twice. Once 70-53 and another time 86-42.

Thanks for the tip. That was one of the first things I thought about when I heard we were going to play there. Our students will love being in that end section of the gym!!!

The game is Monday March 3rd at 7:00pm

Does everyone else see that he joined in December of 2003?!?!

I kinda think it's time for all this "healthy" banter to stop. I'm a HUGE CPA fan...but I'm done. I am just enjoying our success and really enjoying watching the boys prepare for and continually get closer to their goal, which is to make it 3-15-08 (just like the back of the shirts). They are so excited! And with good reason! I can only pray that they don't read here, some of this stuff could be really harmful. I think everyone has gone a little too far and made fools of themselves...including me a time or two. Anyways, good luck to Giles Co. on Monday, as they are the only other 5AA team left. Congrats to the other 9AA programs for a great year. I truely think this district has great things in store for the future!

Not official, but I have a feeling it will be at MLK.

I don't understand why ya'll are so concerned about what the cheerleaders are wearing?!?! It was a BLACKOUT night! It's one of CPA's ways of showing spirit. Schools all over the country do 'white out' games and CPA used to as well, they just decided to change it up some. Everyone else seems to think the black shirts are great and they think it's great that the cheerleaders participate in it! Get over it already, its fun!

I couldn't agree more!

I will say that I don't think we have experienced any problems at any of the CPA games that I've been at. Which if I recall correctly is ALL of them! I have however seen issues at several other schools. Maybe people just aren't getting the training they really need. But I can't imagine that it would be that hard to find a faculty member or parent to run the shot clock.

I agree about the cost issue but there should be some kind of understanding when it comes to this tactic. Of the 20+ CPA games I've seen this season...none of them consisted of this. Tuesdays atmosphere wasn't boring but when you've come to see a CHAMPIONSHIP basketball game or any game for that matter and one of the teams holds the ball for 4 minutes...its dissapointing! Then when it happens for a second time, all you can do is feel like your being cheated. IMO that's why so many CPA fans have had so much to say about it.

I was sitting right off to the side from that goal. I saw the ball and Z. It wasn't going in. It was already leaning to the outside of the rim when Z hit the bottom of the backboard. I actually thought he hurt his fingers the way he hit it. There was no slapping of the backboard, he went up to tip it out and hit underneath instead. Maybe from your view it looked that way, but I was right there, probably a better view than the refs...you know, the ones who didn't call it. I don't know why everyone is so shocked that CPA beat DL...they beat them twice this season already! What makes you think that would change now?!?! Especially when DL didn't play, they just stood around!

I for one am proud of CPA's fans and students. The crowd was absolutely one of the best I've ever seen at a CPA game, 2nd only to the previous DL game. This is a huge rivalry and I think both schools students acted the only way they know how. Think about it this way, had this been a public school like the one I went to, the chant at the end would have been a lot worse than "You can't beat us"!

I think at this point, every game is huge. I know that's how I feel about CPA games. Last night Miller only had 7 and CPA will need him to score more in these tourney games in order to continue their winning streak. Anderson with 17 and Reeves with 12 contributed to last nights win and helped offset the low scoring from Miller. Pearl shot well at the last meeting and held Mason at 16 and Miller at 10. The Firebirds play a good game but I think if CPA can stay focused and energized then they will take it.
