Rumor has it that the Knox County coaches are considering petitioning the administration to allow them to join the TMSAA. That would be 14 additional schools who could be placed in the mix at the end of the year. From what I understand, the coaches discussed it at the last coach's meeting and they would like the opportunity to create an additional large school area that plays into Areas 1,2,3, & 4 at the end of their county tournament. Sounds like a good idea to me and it would enhance the Sectional tournament. We might really find out who are the best teams in East TN instead of just speculating.

I'd like to see it happen. At least this year, I'd say that Knox County would have a hard time claiming the "best in East Tennesee" title.

Hey Steve,

Do you know when the game between Area 3 #2 (Seymour) and the #3 team from Area 1 will be?

Have you heard that for sure? I know that's what the brackett says, but most 2's arrange their own play-in game schedule.

They can handle pressure.

Hey champs1,

If you know when the game between Seymour and Unicoi County (maybe Blountville) will be played, post it here.

All 3 of these teams are pretty good. Unicoi is Big and very fundamentally sound at the half court game. Vance and Colonial Heights are both a little quicker and like to push the ball.

Thanks Champs1. How does Unicoi handle pressure?

Area 1 Large would be last years Eastern Sectional Champions the Colonial Heights Lady Chargers followed by Unicoi County, and then Vance last years runner-up. Unicoi is big and tall. Vance is skillful. Colonial Heights is fast and can run. Three very closely matched NET middle schools.

Thanks for the info. Have they already played those games? I thought the championship was Thursday night and the consolation on Wednesday. I thought Blountville would play Unicoi County for 3rd.
