Good post. Coach Norris is probably the best coach North has ever had. North's tradition of football goes way back to the days of Ketron high school. My father went to high school there and Ketron always had a winning solid ball team made up of nothing but Bloomingdale's finest. They beat Dobyns Bennett back in the 70's. I recall my father saying that they had a quarterback out of Orebank who could throw the ball almost a 100 yards. Since the city of Kingsport absorbed Lynn garden, North might as well be called Bloomingdale high school. Because the school is mainly comprised of mostly Bloomingdale boys now. Mostly descendants of working class folk. Once North is gone, this tradition will go with it. Unless(and I am hoping)Coach Norris is hired to be the head coach of the new high school that is supposed to be built within the next few years. North is probably the most hated school in Kingsport. The school board administration on both the city and the county despise us. Kingsport caters to south and DB. Fans from those other two schools think we are trash and look down there noses at us. We may not have that big of a band or a cheerleading squad, but we do have a football team that works hard and wins football games. Our Coaches and players thrive on that. Our coaches and Football players are Bloomingdales Finest.
