  1. Nobody ever answered my question so just to revisit.

     

    Has Boone ever won at DB and what is the overall series record between the two of them?

     

     

    Boone has beat D-B in Kingsport back in the 80s.

     

     

    Have a clue as to what year that was?

     

     

    I have those old records somewhere and will try to find but I believe the year was Fred Walton's last year. Boone and D-B have not played that often as Boone was in the IMAC in the early 80's before moving to the Big 9-10 or whatever in the mid 80s until the split into 5 classes in the early 90s.

  2. I got to see the fastest player in the area last night.He plays for Tricities and his number is " 4 ".I could see that kid on a sweep for any of our big 8 teams.They don't have the system at tricities to use his speed in an 11 man game,but he has good size and is super super fast :angry: .

     

     

    The Tri-Cities kid is the real deal. He won the Times-News Relays 100 meter dash back in the spring.

  3. Someone mentions my favorite in Edwin Moses. Saw him run in '77 at Florida Relays the year after he won gold in Montreal. He throws down a 47.+ and looks like he is jogging while the rest of the field is struggling to break 50. Except for Pre most kids don't know the history of the sport.

  4. Mr Poor actually got on to evry body for not comeing to this game they will start soming later on in the sason they came to the pf game and that waz a very lon ways a way maybe if we played more disteric games or at the distric games there will be more ppl

     

     

     

    Maybe they need to skip the game and go to a spelling and grammar class if the quote above is any indication.

  5. Who are the best athletes competing this year and which teams are the best?

     

     

    Overall, I think that the area's depth is down but

     

    here are a few:

     

    Girls

     

    Hannah Bowers - Science Hill

    Emma Bowers - SH

    Kayla Kuziola - SH

    Laura Loveless - Dobyns-Bennett

    Kendra Sokol - D-B

    Amanda Loughlin - D-B

    Veronica Morelock - Daniel Boone

     

     

    Boys

     

    Josh Vasquez - D-B

    Adrien Hill - SH

    Solomon Duanah - SH (don't know if he is running)

    Andrew Price - Daniel Boone

    Spencer Frantom - Morristown West

     

    There are a few sleepers out there that will surprise but I'll let them surprise everyone else.

     

    As far as girls teams go, I think that as long as Science Hill has the Bowers girls, they have to be the favorites on the girls side with Dobyns-Bennett probably second. D-B's strength is their distance girls with Loveless and Sokol leading the way. I don't know if D-B will have the sprinters to offset the SH sprinters. Daniel Boone has some distance girls that could make some noise and if they can get some quality sprinters and field girls out they could be the best of the rest.

     

    I do not see a clear cut favorite on the boys side. There are a few individuals in the various events but I just don't see anyone having the depth to be a really strong team. I think that Dobyns-Bennett would probably be the favorite with Morristown West being a choice for second.
