All Mid-State Soccer teams from Tennessean..... http://www.tennessean.com/article/20100 ... occer+team

Anybody know what this is about or who is playing???? http://blogs.tennessean.com/high-school ... in-soccer/

Just wondering, did any players who were nominated not get selected?

In 11 AAA: Centennial lose a big senior class, Bristol and Tyson are gone to play at the next level and will have to look to a couple of their Junior class to step up. Independence, lose two 4 year starters, one of them the 11 AAA Defensive MVP, small senior class again next year....but Junior class is stacked with talented players who will need to take up the slack Brentwood - lost Nick Desalvatore for most of the season and my vote for Freshman of the year Childster(sp) stepped up big, lose most of the defense but should be one of the top teams again Ravenwood - could be there year next year, need to find some players to replace the senior laden defense but should make it to State Franklin - Big senior class this year all gone, Seniors next year in Omar and Michael Brown are going to have to lift some underclassmen to step into varsity, very talented freshmen group

Franklin 2-0 over Hillsboro Independence 3-2 over Ravenwood Franklin v Centennial 5pm Wednesday Independence v Brentwood 7pm Wednesday

Prediction: 4-1 Farragut

The Regional team played on Monday against Charlton Academy, Region III won 3-0. Hopefull for flights on Thursday!

Players are in a wait and see mode. If flight can get out on Thursday, they will be on it....if not, then that's where the problems arise. Could be into next week. They are enjoying themselves immensely...tour of Stamford Bridge yesterday, tour of Wembley today, trained by Chelsea Academy coach today, and play Charlton Academy tomorrow. Thanks for the thoughts....will keep you posted.

Region III ODP played their first game of the tour against the Fulham Football Club Academy team today. Region III came away with a 2-1 victory, highlight of the game was Clint Dempsey coming into the changing room and meeting the team and getting them pumped upto to "beat the brits"!

2 High School Juniors and 1 High School Senior from Tennessee will this week be travelling with the Region III 92 ODP boys team to London to play four games, tour and train. Paul 'Koolaid' Banks from Christian Brothers High School, Nick Dykes from Independence High School and Jack McCoy from Knox West High School were selected to represent the Regional ODP team. Region III consists of 12 States in the Southeast of the US, including Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North and South Carolina, North and South Texas and oklahoma. The boys will be based at the Chelsea FC training grounds in Cobham, Surrey. They will be training at the Chelsea training grounds on three days during the tour with Chelsea Academy coaches, playing games against Fulham FC Academy, Crystal Palace FC Academy, Charlton FC Academy and finishing up with a game against Chelsea FC Academy.

11-AAA must have 3 of the best keepers. Senior - Ryan Bristol Junior - Alex Blanton Sophomore - Landon Foster
