Well the top 4 made it through, so who takes it? I think the finals will be Van Buren Co. vs Cascade. Forrest has a hard time beaten a team three times in a row, just look at last years season, plus with them having to travel to Van Buren Co. it may make a difference. I think that Cascade will beat Eagleville in a close game. I think it will make a difference if Cascade has the big boy playing point guard or playing where he should down inside. If he is handling the ball Eagleville will win with ease, if he is doing what he is supposed to be doing and working inside Cascade will win it. Should be interesting to see who does what, but Coach Pope has gotten Cascade to the district finals each of the two years he has been there and they got a good seed being away from Forrest until possibly the finals... also just like the last 2 years. I think that Van Buren Co. will win the tourney beating Cascade for it, with Forrest taking 3rd place and Eagleville 4th. If this happens I think it will help out these district teams in the region tourney with the regular season 3rd and 4th place teams playing the other districts bottom 2 and the 2 best teams in the regular season playing the top 2 from the other side. Good luck to everyone, looking forward to see how it plays out.

Just wondering if there had been any basketball coaches that had announced retirement, be relaesed from their coaching responsibilites, etc... I am not looking for details or rumors, just know facts about any openings.

I thought that Giles Co. just got a new coach this year. What happened?

I think that everyone is pretty sure of the four teams going on to the region from this district. The real question is.... who will win it? Last year everyone had Forrest's name already on the trophy before the tourney was played and that didn't work out for them too well. So is it their's again this year ? Just wondering what ya'll think about it.

Now that's the funniest post I have ever seen. Webb couldn't even beat Cascade's middle school team, much less beat the high school team at Cascade. Shoot as bad as Community is this year, when they play Webb, its an automatic "W" for the Vikings. Crunchtime I think you have been smelling too many feet over there at Webb. LOL

Well after last Tuesday night, it looks like Cascade may not be able to play for one of the top spots in this district after all. Hey Forrest showed that they are pretty good, and now the biggest game of this young season is Friday night when they play Van Buren Co. I just think that it is funny how many of you like to count out certain teams before there is any proof that they are/aren't a top contender in a district, no matter who it is. Cascade won it last year, and any team that wins it camn't really be counted out until they are beaten out. From the looks of it Cascade was beaten out of any chance of retaining that title this year Tuesday night, and ran out of the gym.

3-7 huh? Whatever, the only ones that are right on that post is the last one, F.C. Boyd. MTCS and Community will battle it out for the 5 spot, and I like how everyone is counting out Cascade, but counting in Eagleville. Dont be so quick to count Cascde out of the 3 spot if not the top 2. A big test is tonight at Forrest when Cascede comes in for the rematch of last years district championship game in which Cascade won by the way. Everyone will have a better idea after tonight what the future MAY be in this district.

Ok the Shelbyville Times Gazette said that Cascade was "undermanned", and that Alex Craig led the champs in scoring? So, who didnt play for Cascade and why, if anyone knows why? Thanks

What happened last night in this game? Who won? Who played well for both schools?

Hey I dont know about the refs up there, but any refs that I have ever seen, from the hometown or not, arent very good. So NO thats is not an issue for anyone except yall I guess. As for your "whining", no one is whining over here, just wish that other schools would have stood up for their own communities. No reason to whine about it, just really wishing that someone from those other schools would attempt to explain why they are looking forward to traveling that far. Thats all. And who cares about Wartrace, I dont. You must think that I am w/ Cascade, for Cascade, or something... I am NOT. I just liked watching the old district. So why are you bringing up Wartrace, but the last time I was out there it only took about 15 min. to get there from Wal-Mart.

Dont think anyone will have to worry about that. I dont really think from what I have seen and heard that Clarksville[/url] Academy</a>'s gym is big enough to hold a region tournament, nor do they really have the lockerroom space for it. That is not a worry for anyone down this way. Sorry to bust your bubble grammar, but if they do have to travel far from home for region, they may not be that many fans going up there. I know that when Cascade had to go to Mt. Pleasant 2 years ago, that other than the parents and the TV crew, they didnt have that many fans there. And not only Casacade, but the other teams from this area didnt travel all that well to Mt. Pleasant either. Thats all I am saying. Hey Van Buren Co., as for yall having always had to travel, good for you. Big deal. Your school is up in the middle of nowhere, I am sure that some of you call it traveling to get to Wal-Mart. The schools from the other district has not had that problem. So please forgive some of us if we dont feel you guys pain. I think that Cascade's longest trip last year was to Huntland, and I am pretty sure that was one of if not the longest trip for Eagleville, Forrest, and Community as well. I am sure Van Buren Co. will be very hospitable for everyone and maybe the folks who go over there can join hands with ya'll and sing Koom-By-Ya .

For one thing, that wasn't said to bad mouth you and your team/school. It was exactly what I was told from another coach who was at the meeting that those 3 schools allowed to happen, instead of banding together with their other old district mates and getting the tournament a little bit closer to home where people from this area would actually like to go and see the tournament. No offence to Van Buren Co., but from what I have heard, its a very long drive that hardly anyone from our area is willing to make for 2 or 3 nights in a row to watch a district tournament. I guess it was just the fact that they didn't want to give Cascade any advantage what-so-ever. I am just surprised that they are that scared of the Champions and were willing to let another school come in and take the tournament 2+ hours away from their communities. That's all that I meant about it. Sorry you got your "feathers" ruffelled.

Coach Kenny I just wanted to say that I hope that things will work out better for you and the Champs next year. Ya'll had a tough year, but another year of maturing and hard work the youngs kids will be better, the older ones will be better leaders and stronger mentally. Keep up the hard work. Better luck next year.

Yeah I heard that at the district meeting that the administrators and coaches from Eagleville, Chapel Hill, and Unionville were kissing up to u boys from Van Buren Co. That whatever yall wanted yall got and it didnt matter what anyone else thought about it either. I really wish that the district tournaments were all played at a neutral site. I know last year district 11 was at Motlow and that was an awesome experience for both the kids and the fans. Would like to see that happen more often. Good luck to all and maybe someone might not let a new school walk all over them as u 3 did in the spring meetings.

I agree. I think that he is one of the best coaches in any class, not just AA. He seems to always be able to get young kids ready to play and to keep his older guys from settling on what they did last year and to improve to be better the next. Hands down one of the best. Good luck Wilson, c ya the 18th down in bedford.
