both ohs and bhs are trying to earn back reputations. this will be an extremely close game. both teams want the win badly.

it could go either way right now. i'm pulling for blackman though because i know how hard they have been working this week. =)

i don't think our band plays as much to distract the teams as to keep up morale. they're a good band, and mr. stepp will be the first to say they play for the fans, not the team. i agree, the singers can hit some pretty high (and annoying) notes. although the band gets pretty noisy, they're good about not playing once the ball has been snapped, kicked, punted, etc. as for the game friday, if i'm not mistaken i think if it rains too badly friday, they're going to postpone it til monday.

Rico was really what the team needed last night. The whole mentality of the team is gonna change. And no, Hendersonville never had the lead. =)

The young man's name was Josh Frankiln. There is more about him on the Tennessean's web site.

This is NOT the "Battle of the 'Boro". Blackman is just another game on Riverdale's Schedule. Riverdale - Oakland is the ONLY "Battle of the 'Boro". Maybe Blackman and Seigal can have the Battle of the new schools with no history game. [Edited by TinyTim on 9-16-02 8:54A] What's with all the narrow-minded people in Murfreesboro? Why does the OHS/RHS game HAVE to be the Battle of the 'Boro? Get over this mentality that there are only 2 high schools in Mufreesboro; Blackman's been open 3 years now! Being new has absolutely nothing to do with anything. In case you haven't noticed, BHS's seniors this year had to come from SOMEwhere... Amen TinyTim, The Blaze fans ARE the best. As for the RHS game, I have nothing to say except they better be glad they can back up all the trash they talk. Best not get too cocky though. The play-offs are coming. Save your strength.

Blackman'S homecoming is this Friday, Sept. 27th, against the Hendersonville Commandos.
