Is the 8AAA District tournamnet single or double elimination? :confused:

the answer I got on the Coaches Board was Fall '78 spring '79. Who's right?

the answer I got on the Girls Basketball board was 79-80. Who's right?

We've had a pretty good argument here about the actual year(s)!

When did Tennessee "officially" go to 5-on-5 in girls basketball? :confused:

in what season did girls "officially" begin playing 5-on-5? :confused:

who are some of the ladies from the Shelbyville H.S. team?

Admittedly, I have not seen very many ganes outside of district 8AAA, but this district alone gives me a lot to reference by and I would have to say that Corey Curlee from Shelbyville has to be one of the best catchers around. I do not know any exact stats but I have seen her throw out more girls at second than made it safely. I have seen numerous collisions at the plate (probaly more than she would have liked) and have yet to see her drop the ball. She began really hitting with power the last portion of the season. But, in my mind, what really sets her apart from others is her ability to call a ballgame. Toni Jensen was selected Pitcher of the Year from the district and I believe she will be the first to tell you that Corey played a big part in receiving the award. The first game I saw them play I kept looking to the dugout to see what pitches the Coach may be calling, but soon found out that there were none. Corey decides, along with Toni of course, all the pitches and their location and this astounded me that this was happening as you really don't see this very much at any level, even pro baseball. Toni's number of strikeouts will reflect that Corey definitely knows what she is doing. I know this was a long post and I'm sure there are many, many girls out there that are deserving of mention in this thread, but I just wanted to put in my $.02 worth on something I truly believe.
