Beech's Kassidy McCoy has signed to play D1 softball with 2011 NCAA Big South Conference Champions and 2011 NCAA Tourny participant Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA. http://hendersonvillestandard.com/sports/6-general-sports/2062-beechs-kassidy-mccoy-signs-with-liberty

Those are impressive stats! Can't help but wonder about the pitching though. Beech run-ruled Franklin (11-1)and only allowed 1 hit in their matchup at Franklin Sonic Invitational. Still, 15 homers on 200+ fences shows real power no matter what kind of pitching. Congrats to her!

What about east and west Tennessee? Any contenders there?

Certainly you'd like your team to be fresh but also be tournament tested and have stamina. That's a fine line. We'll see how it plays out.

In AA I agree, Creekwood is strong. Haven't seen Goodpasture yet butI think the fact that they haven't played many games will hurt them. In AAA Beech is the best hitting team top to bottom I've ever seen. Home runs have come from 7 of 9 players in the lineup.

I agree they'll win state in their division. Best Davidson Academy team ever IMHO

If you consider Riverdale a Boro prospect then your point is legit.

Ok we're all halfway through the season. From what you've seen, who's the best team in the state and what makes you think so?

Sara Beth Roberts at Mt. Juliet. Best I've seen. I've seen her field a bunt and could've run the slapper down going to first if she hadn't pulled up.

Kassidy McCoy, Beech...4 hole hitter and throws runners out at second from her knees!

Who's gonna win AAA? I'm saying Beech. Here's why. State Runner-up last year, 6 returning starters, 5 senior starters (including the pitcher), 3 NCAA Division 1 signees, 43-0 against TN teams this season. The only thing going against them is they don't bow down and pray toward the softball Mecca of Chattanooga 3 times a day .

Beech...5 seniors starting...oldest girls win

In Middle TN I hear the Athletics have lost some good talent from the fall. Maybe not as good now. TN Eagles may be on the rise but mainly all 15 year olds. Cruisers always pretty good but again mainly 15s.

Which 2 will make state out of Soddy, Coffee, Riverdale, Lincoln? Which 2 will make state out of Beech, Wilson Cent, Ravenwood, Brentwood? I think Coffee, Lincoln, Beech, and Wilson Central. Let's stir it up
