Upperman 61-41 to advance.

Wow tuned in just before the half. Beginning of the 4th quarter Upperman up 49-28.

Was it 2 years ago Upperman lost to White County twice in the regular season? Beat them in the district tournament and went then on to the state tournament. Seems like when it really matters Dana has a plan. I hope White would wins this game. Always good to get multiple teams from your district in the state tournament.

Lady Bees are a young team. Solid but not near the best team in the state in 3A.

I know of no school function or facility that a civilian is allowed to conceal carry in. That day came a long time ago. I've had a permit for over 20 years in 3 different states. Never carried to a high school basketball game.

Give Upperman time to get football guys in the flow and they will be tough to beat.

Just a snapshot from Coach T for the last 10 years Cookeville girls and Upperman girls. Cookeville overall record 2013-2022 119-115 District 54-35. With 3 seasons 500 or less and in the district 5 times. Upperman overall record 296-49 District 115-22. With 1district season of 500 or less. Understanding this really doesn't mean a lot. I think Upperman is very lopsided in the win collum over the last 10 years. The last 2 years Cookeville had a really good team. IMHO over the last 10 year if they played 20 times Upperman wins 15. After a casual glance down through 04-05 season I think it's still very lop sided in Upperman's favor. I did see where they played in the 07/08 season in the Mid-South Classic. Upperman won 46-38. In that season Cookeville was 24-8 and 12-2. Pure speculation on my part.

The same way Clay county does it. 1A school with less than 300 kids in a very small town and county.

I thought there was a bill passed in 2021 that forced all public schools in TN to be open enrollment. If the building school and class has room. SENATE BILL 788 All LEA (Local Education Agencies) I would think this means the county. Before the start of each school year, an LEA shall identify each school that, based on the school's capacities at the building, grade, class, and program levels, has space available to enroll and serve additional students. In determining available space at the class level, an LEA may use the class size averages specified in § 49-1-104 An LEA may reserve a reasonable number of enrollment spaces each school year from the number of spaces, if any, determined by the LEA to be available for enrollment for purposes of this section, to accommodate the potential enrollment of students who may relocate within the respective school zone, students who may have a sibling enrolled at the respective school, and students who may have a parent who teaches at the respective school. (c) Before the start of each school year, each LEA shall conduct an open enrollment period of at least thirty (30) days during which a parent or guardian of a student residing within the LEA may apply for enrollment of the parent's or guardian's student in a school that the student is not zoned to attend. During the open enrollment period, a parent or guardian may submit an application for transfer to a school identified by the LEA as having space available to enroll and serve additional students.

Watching this one on Facebook. Late 4th QTR about a minute left Bees up 26-0.

Let's go Hogeye!!

In a lot of cases, you can say that and be correct. In this case where there is photograph and video of the call that most have seen not so much. Not from either area but support York in this case. Call should have been a jump ball. Not sure who would have had the possession after the call.

Like it don't like it. Doesn't really matter it's coming all that is to figure out is when. It's only a matter of time. May 13, 2021 The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) has approved a 35-second shot clock for high school basketball, starting with the 2022-23 season. The NFHS released a statement on Wednesday, making it clear that the use of a shot clock will not be a mandate.

I've said for several years it would be a good thing for high school basketball. There will be obstacles to overcome as has been stated. I do think over all if is good for the game. In rural areas where schools of significant enrollment differences play each other maybe not. Holding the ball can be an equalizer at times. It has already been approved at the national level just not forced to implement. Additional personal as well as cost to make it work. Yars ago the 3 point lines was to be the ruination of high basketball. I think it has survived just fine.

Looks like York has their revenge and wins by double digits.
