OwlsBaseball

I wouldn't underestimate the arms of the Owls....Woods, Coburn (seniors) and promising juniors Pepping and Geren will make to be a pretty good staff...will Zach Smith get innings on the mound or does he no longer pitch? Who else do the Owls have to throw?

I'm sure Cody Owen will play college ball somewhere and Sean Sanders could as well, with consideration to football. An incredible amount of seniors this year... hopefully the guys who have come up through the years have gained enough experience to lead the Owls to a successful 2007 season (Woods, Williams, Crowe, etc).

FLY HIGH OWL NATION Ooltewah's got the speed, the size, and the depth... pull it together boys and put it all into one aspect. Returning players from last year's team should be hungry for this game. Did Sterling (I think that's his name, Farragut's RB) graduate last year?

GO GET EM OWLS!!!! BUS, DT, M-LOWE, SPENCE, WALLY... bring home a win!

Ah congrats to my boys back in Ooltewah, glad to see yall wrapped a district title with hopefully more wins on the way. A very successful year for the Owls. Encouraged to see some of the younger guys contributing (Reason, Jones, and of course, Daniel Tackling) while some of the older guys are still pulling the weight (Spence, Lowe). Keep it up guys.

Haven't they already faced each other? Remind me, what was the outcome of that game? Don't try to retract your statement either, because even if you mentioned just Henry and Ward you described Red Bank as being a "strong pitching team".

Well congrats to Central, it's obviously a bit of a shock that they would be the ones to shatter Ooltewah's undefeated record, but hey when credit is due, I'll give it to em. Whats the news on my ol buddy Markum?

Hunter Hydas- Lee University John Howard- Walters State CC Zack Woods (one of the best hitters, if not the best, in Chattanooga) and Tim Markum (great defensive catcher, tremendous power) from Ooltewah.

Central, in regards to ability, has indeed gotten better... I only wish nothing but luck to them, however, I'm interested to see what mentality their new coach enforces... I think Houghton let a few too many things slide during his tenure as coach.

I most definitely think so. The mentality enforced at Chattanooga Central has been and always will be a positive one.... that's if you're aiming to talk trash and be posed as ignorant all the time. Ryder Atkins is your most respectable ball player.

Touche, PSAFOUR

Dobyns Bennett is in Kingsport last time I checked... could be wrong, but because I'm not, it's definitely in Kingsport.

Any average joe could've told you that soccer isn't the only thing that'll get you a scholarship, however, grades are the most crucial when under the consideration of a D3 school.... Emilio, I know for a fact, was frustrated at Grace and now after breaking in at Ooltewah, he has the support of his fellow teammates as well as he having support for them.

Guess we'll find out pretty soon here whether or not Emilio will have an impact on Ooltewah's season, now won't we? It's fairly contradictory to call him "garbage" when a few D1 and several D2 schools are already giving him looks.... I'm not here to hype Sanchez up, I've seen the kid play, I know his full potential.... just stating the facts.

Look what you're comparing him to... the likes of McCallie and Baylor.... possibly the two top notch schools in the area.I'm well aware of the relevance and you're points are valid. Size does indeed matter, however, it doesn't effect what anyone can do on the field. I can be a 5 foot 2 goalie with a 32 inch vertical jump and be successful. Stats are stats, the kid scored 12 goals (or close to it, somewhere in that area, big deal) and how exactly did he score those? As I mentioned in my previous post, he somehow maneuvered his way through the loaded defenses of PJP, Blackman, and Farragut to score.... if and WHEN Ooltewah wins the district, a lot of credit will be shoved towards DT.
