I'm not sure if it has been mentioned recently, but Maryville is only 4 games back from Dobyns Bennett for the all times football wins in the state of Tennessee. Conceivably, Maryville could surpass DB for the wins lead during the playoffs. If DB loses to Smyrna in the first round, and Maryville wins the state championship then Maryville will be have the lead for all time football wins. If Maryville loses in the state championship then they will be tied with DB at season's end. I've tracked Maryville's ascension up the all time win ranks since 1995 and it is pretty astounding how fast they've climbed the ranks. In 1995, Maryville was 8th all time in wins and was 86 games back (see below). Season Overall Games Back Rank Team Year W L W L 1 Baylor 1995 8 4 578 204 0 2 Dobyns-Bennett 1995 7 4 577 182 1 3 Memphis Central 1995 6 4 561 291 17 4 MBA 1995 12 2 532 283 46 5 Christian Bros 1995 8 2 529 256 49 6 Haywood Co 1995 14 1 507 274 71 7 McCallie 1995 7 3 496 276 82 8 Maryville 1995 11 1 492 194 86 9 Oak Ridge 1995 11 1 440 119 138 10 Alcoa 1995 11 3 439 227 139 11 Milan 1995 10 3 426 275 152 By the end of the current 2016 regular season Maryville is only 4 games back (see below).

Stars…Maryville is indeed only 19 wins back from DB for the lead in the all-time wins column. If you go back to the end of the 1995 season Maryville was in 8th place overall in all-time wins (492-194)…86 games back from the leader Baylor (578-204). DB over took Baylor for the lead in wins the next season (1996). Fast forward to today and Maryville (745-215) sits in 2nd place to DB (764-226) in all-time wins…19 games back. Since the beginning on the 2000 season, MHS averages 13.9 wins per year whereas DB has averages 9.7 wins per year…a difference of 4.2 games per year. If these averages hold up, Maryville should pass DB in wins in 4.5 years (2019 season). When looking at the biggest movers in the all-time wins list since 1995, only a few teams stand out across the state. Maryville made the biggest jump at +61 games, Alcoa was 2nd at +20 games, Milan was third at +10 games and DB was the only other team (+1) to decrease the gap between them and the #1 team.

Sure Sarah, that would be great. And maybe in 20 years when Independence has a 100 wins we can celebrate then as well.

With Maryville's win tonight against Farragut they are now tied with MBA for 2nd all-time wins. An impressive fact is how fast they caught up. In 1999, they were 4th and 69 games behind the then #2 Baylor. They have since surpassed Baylor and lead them by 20 games. They were also 45 games behind then #3 MBA. If their success continues, they should catch DB in 15 years or less. WINS 1. Dobyns-Bennett: 712-214-29 2. Maryville: 665-213-34 2. Montgomery Bell Academy: 665-315-46 4. Baylor: 645-281-39 5.

Actually, there are 4 schools in Blount County: Maryville, Alcoa, Heritage, and William Blount. In Hamblin County there are only 2: East and West. So, one could say you are doing less with more. As for Mo-West being the only team Maryville has lost to, there again you are incorrect. We've actually lost to a few others: 2000 Alcoa 7-14 L Central 14-21 L Heritage 0-28 L Halls 14-21 L 2001 Morristown West 24-31 L (MHS won the rematch 23-7 in the semis) 2003 Morristown West 14-17 L Your 2003 team was great. Too bad you couldn't get it done in the finals, losing 21-0.

With the win against Powell last night, Maryville surpassed Shelbyville??™s Bedford Training Academy for Tennessee's longest win streak (65-0). What an awesome accomplishment. They still have some work to get to Bedford's unbeated streak of 82 games, but who knows...maybe someday. Currently, they have the second longest win streak behind South Panola (Batesville, MS), and 8th longest all time in the US (not including 8 man and 9 man teams). http://www.blounttoday.com/news/2008/sep/1...eaking-history/

38-16 game over.

38-8. Clinton's 1st team scores against Maryville's waterboy, trainers, and 5th grade all stars.

38-0 in the 4th...the mercy rule is in effect.

31-0 Maryville, early in the 3rd
