Congratulations to Clarkrange for a great season, 30 - 0* is an incredible accomplishment*, in this day and age its very hard to do. You would almost have to have great players from other teams move into your area just so you could put together such a team...oh thats what you did.......What about Marxhall County over in AA, they did it with players from their own neighborhood and played Top Ten AAA teams during the season....now thats something Not saying the girls did not come out and practice and play hard every night, Really just a super AAU team, everyone would be a great coach if they could just pick their players off other teams This one is like Barry Bonds...gets an asterik.* I know its mean, but got a call it as I see it.....

Fra (the team)leaves for Div 2, it has nothing to do with greener pastures. IT WAS A JOKE...u know a LOL,, or for you english folks "an" lol ? 9AA has year after year placed teams in the final 8/4 of the state.... For those commenting on Chris Hart, get a life...this guy is a great coach. I can give you proof, line up against his team of young players and get beat. If you think they are good this year wait until next, when this young team gets a little older. Not only is Hart a great coach, he is a prime example of class on the court and off. A great example for the young women who get the privlidge of learning under him. If my freshman daughter wanted to play over at FRA.......she would have my blessings and she would be better for it. what more could you ask?

District 9 will provide the runner up team that will travel to the sub-state. Marshall county is one of the top teams in the state.... AA or AAA. They have proven this with their win against Mt. Juliet AAA. Although 9aa has some great tallent.. Having to play against the past state champ, and this year Marshall will play for the championship,( I think they will repeat, but there is a great upperman team out there, so all bets are off, you will find 9aa getting to the state through the #2 seed.) 9aa wont be closer than 20 with marshall. I think 9aa will get to the state, but it will be over the next couple of years that they dominate the region, there is a lot of great young tallent out there. Do not forget David Lipscomb in your discussion, you might beat up on them this season, but they have a wealth of tallent and height in the 7th and 8th grade levels. Of course FRA leaves for better competition..... lol... I mean greener pastures!

It is wrong to place the blame for this situation, that may or may not arise, on a disgruntled player. If it turns out to be true, would not all of the players, who have been in the program since middle school and are currently on the team be the first to feel cheated? They have the real first claim. Those who have played against the team will get a forfit win in the event cheating took place. They will be vindicated....but what about the hard work and sweat of the girls who have given 5 or 6 years to a program and now are not playing and eventually will forfit all of their games. The players who are not seniors will have some type of penalty and this could effect their future years of basketball at the school. Disgruntled? Darn right...and if this type stuff is going on at your school you should report it. Who wants to win if you have to cheat to do it. If the allegations prove true, the coach should be disbarred from TSSAA comp, and the administratiors fired.

This makes independance undefeated for 2009! way to go ladies,,,, congratulations Miriska.......turning out to be a great new year Mrs....lol

Thanks Bagwell was out

CPA hits buzzer beater and wins 25-22. First of at least 6 for lipscomb

lol you only missed it by a couple 9aa fan. is is true that Kayla Eakes leads 9aa in scoring? pretty good for a 7th place team. Cpa wins in a buzzer beater at Lipscomb 25-22 FRA wins a close one with MLK 28-22

Lets get something going here. This is in the girls game where hops are not as usual. HS girls player catches the ball with feet parallel. Starts drive with right foot power dribble to basket. Jump Stops, than she she jumps again (hops) and lands on both feet before shooting the ball. Isn't this the easiest walk call in the game? I saw a girl at Parl Cohn or East Lit do this several times a game last year and now I see a player from Oakland HS doing the same thing. (no call) Am I missing something here? Is this where the game is going or is this poor officiating

Someone with better email than me tell Coacht that Ezell Harding Girls did not play Lavergne in the Bridgestone classic Wednesday November 25th. coacht has the schedule wrong. Lavergne actually played Bartlett and Ezell had the day off. The final score is accurate with Lavergne beating Bartlett. Thanks in advance to who ever gets the message through /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

Hope all those playing will keep us updated with how the teams looked and possibly the scores!

The intention of my post was to indicate that the problem in Lebanon was the Administration. Period. The wilson county school board does not hire the coaches at Lebanon. I believe its up to the High School principle. I never stated that fox would think she would be the team. I simply stated that fox is the next great player to either go to lebanon or leave lebanon. What would be my threat? I am very aware of the situation at lebanon high school regarding athletics. I do not have a girl on the team there. There is no I in team, well there is an I in win and they cant seem to find that at lebanon. You must have a standout player to win at the state level. I have certainly worked around great high school women basketball players and the standouts that would have gone to lebanon have opted to go elsewhere. Could lebanon get to the next level with this young lady. Certainly, but it does require everyone playing together. I thought fans of the "Blue Devils" would embrace a rising star. With every program to which I have had some affiliation, we always had a superstar. Did this make the other girls less important. Of course not, superstar would just get league mvp, the other players got all district and such. I have no hunt in any of the wilson county womens basketball programs, The programs that I have been involved in have all won, we would love to have a player like fox come to our program, we would win it together, and probably give her the last shot.

If you want your child to be a Doctor, you could go to Meharry Medical College in Nashville. What if the opportunity presented itself that allowed you to switch to Vanderbilt. Still gonna just be a doctor. I dont know how many times coaches from the private schools I know have been accused of recruting. I think that there is a bigger move on for parents wanting their children to be a champion at a school known for champions. Along the same lines why do parents want their children in the Magnet schools. The perception that this is the better opportunity, to prepare a child for college, weather it be academics or athletics can be the main goal. I can assure you that some of the people mentioned on the 7a thread, don't need to move. There is no financial gain for them, just the perception that their daughter will be better off somewhere other than where they are now. As for community pride...well family is a commitment that comes from both sides. Its easy to guilt people into doing things for you because their your family, (community). But it is a double edge sword, is their a commitment from the school program to make it the best?. The easy decision for players looking to get scholarship offers is to follow a path where players before them have gone on to get scholarships in their sport of choice. Nothing wrong with that. A ball player looking to get a shot at the NFL has a better chance going to Tennessee over other colleges because of Tennessee's track record of turning out NFL players.

My comments were ment only as a joke. I think GC will be tough to beat. Marshall lost three starters, point, 2 and 3. They will find it hard to replace these scorers. The game should be tougher for March. I think GC has a great chance to win the championship. Just wanted to rub a little salt in an open wound.

AA- remember Marshall...... okay just rubbing it in a bit...dont get mad
