Methinks that eaglemaniac is enjoying Temple's trouble's just a tad too much. Just look around, pal. The view from the top is nice, but it never lasts. Your school may not have to deal with violations, at least I hope they don't. But this doesn't mean that they won't have their down years too. You should never glory in another's difficulties.

I've never known any Temple fans to get on here and run their mouths. Stop knocking Temple, Middleton is a great team. Why doesn't anybody stop giving crap to the losing team and just congratulate the winning team. Good job Middleton. Temple was 34-2 this season so unless you are from McCallie (wait, Temple killed them later) or Middleton then you have nothing to say about Temple. The Temple players were crushed after the game like any team would be who makes it this far only to lose. Have some class or stop posting!!!!!!!!!!!

Great season Grace!!!! I feel bad for Johnny and Evan, but I saw you guys play several times this year and you are great. Way to come together after a rough start to the season. To the returning Eagles, good luck next year!!!!

Good job, Grace, on whipping CCS by 25. But you gotta remember, Temple beat CCS by 35 earlier this year when CCS had their point guard and Caleb only scored 11. Tomorrow night should be a great game and another classic in this super rivalry. Good luck to both teams. My pick: Temple by 7 PS. Who else proposes we move this game to somewhere closer than stinkin' Sale Creek??!!!!

Grace will be up for this one more than CCS will. They will be dying for redemption after the last meeting and they are ready for another shot at Temple after playing them so close last week. If Dilts and Jeffery Smith keep up their level of play, Grace wins this one and sets up another classic matchup with Temple on Friday. If those two don't show up (and I think they will), it will be another big win for CCS.

Anyone who says that single A is for chumps should put Temple on their schedule. Just ask Ooltewah or East Ridge about Temple. Back to the game, Temple just has too many weapons to stop in this one. SP will play tough, but Temple should win. Temple 84 South Pitt. 54

I think they give the award out a week or two after state. So yes, it could come down to who has the best post-season. Since Temple is the favorite to win state, I give the edge to Caleb. I have not seen any of the other two players, but its hard to imagine either one of them doing more for his team than Caleb does for Temple. Plus he is impossible to guard.

Here are stats of significance for Temple: (Points are accurate, everything else is real close) Caleb Skogen: 29 points, 8 assists, 4 steals, 4 rebounds, 4 dunks Sean Wadley: 17 points, 8 assists, 6 rebounds Seth Skogen: 9 points, 5 rebounds Stephen Cudd: 5 steals

Temple's closest win so far this season was by 10 points (twice). It will be interesting to see how Temple responds to playing in what will probably be a close game until the end.

Temple plays in class A because that is what is required of a school that size. Temple does not recruit because if they did, their enrollment would be through the roof from athletes wanting to go there because of the quality of athletics at Temple. If they make it to state this year it will be the fourth year in a row; not many other schools can say that. And the football program has gone 13-7 in its first two seasons playing several TSSAA schools, and they will join a TSSAA region this season with a chance to impress a lot of people. What high school student athlete wouldn't want to go to a school like that??? STOP BEING JEALOUS OF CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS WITH QUALITY ATHLETIC PROGRAMS!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe people still accuse Temple of recruiting. That is rediculous!!!!!! But I won't go any furthur into that now. Ooltewah won at Temple last season against a young Crusader team. But I think the extra year's worth of experience will give Temple the win. My pick: Temple 73 Ooltewah 62.

Last year at Regions, SP played Temple close for three quarters before Temple pulled away in the fourth. Temple is obviously much improved, but if SP is at all improved, they could at least give teams like Temple and Grace a challenge. Plus they've already beat Lookout Valley once this season, and could do it again this week.

Caleb had 28 points. Seth had 28 and 10 boards. Zack had 13 boards for Temple. Those are 100% accurate.

Of course he's wrong. Every once in a great while a bad call might change a one point game, but Temple won by 11, hardly any credit goes to the refs. The foul count was very even the entire game. Skogen should win Mr. Basketball and he will after Temple wins state.

I wasn't even looking forward to this game until I read what they're saying. now I wish it was tonight. As a Temple fan, I was worried about CCS, LV, and McCallie, but since this is a post about Pickett Co, I'll speak of it. Temple is the fastest team in the state (class A) by far and by halftime, Pickett Co will be so out of breath from chasing Caleb, Seth, and Dee, Temple will play its bench. As for Temple's "weak" schedule, I think CAK is pretty good, Grace was on its way to state until Van Horn left, and we still haven't played CPA or Ooltewah. oh yeah, and our closest win was ten points. Temple 80 Pickett 60.
