really helpful post there showtime... anyways, it was a well played game for both teams (i know the score doesn't say that)...farragut definitely had their chances. ben played really well as usual and although he didn't score, tom played very well for bearden. in my opinion farragut just got out coached. the players all played pretty well (adam was in goal though). farragut (except on the goal) let bearden set up in their defense and brian played his normal game and dominated anything in the box. the goals pretty much all came on counters i think where bearden had everyone 7 defending and farragut had 7 attacking and bearden would win the ball and play it long and let their forwards go 1 v 1 and get the ball for a breakaway. all the goals came when each team had numbers on the attack. the first was great recognition of the open goal from about 40 yards and hemmingway just put it on frame...the rest of bearden's were great balls slotted through that farragut just couldn't handle...on farragut's #12 was on the right wing and sent a ball back post and ben volleyed a rocket near post to beat walker. good luck to both at state...they should each go far

i'm glad you're playing down the magnitude of this game and calling it a "scrimmage" after you lost. I'm pretty sure that both teams wanted to win this game pretty bad...no one likes to go into state with the bad taste of a loss in their mouth. And, their was certainly a good amount of skill demonstrated in the game...i'm not sure if you were watching when marvin and stein tore up the middle for webb the whole second half...maybe not so much baylor seeing as they came out flat but it was certainly an enjoyable game to watch from either standpoint.

I'll take CAK gettin their revenge in this one. They play so well together and are due for an outstanding game. They've been playing relatively well but haven't had a really great game in a few...I'll say they put this one away in regular time.

Webb 1-0 on a goal by Stein around the middle of the 1st half

good call cincy on the easy win for baylor...today webb had the better chances, was better conditioned, and was just the better team overall. baylor had one legit chance in the second half and that was in stoppage time. the refs were good today and let the game go for the most part. it was a hard fought game by both teams, baylor just didn't seem to have it. and to everyone who talks about that phenomenal back line they have...if webb had finshed a little better the game could have been 3-0 just as pinball was predicting.

brick, i like it haha i've also talked to many of webb's players and they're not really feeling any "heat." the pressure is on baylor becausethey were the ones who lost earlier this year. Webb knows they can win and they're playing at home. I'm not saying that webb is taking this game lightly or anything because they're not, it's just that they're not going to come out and play nervous. They've played in enough big games this year with their schedule that this game should be no different. And when you think about it, both teams are going to come out firing. there's not a whole lot to lose in this game because at state you're going to have to beat everyone at one point or another to win so seeding isn't all that huge since there are no byes. Baylor's looking for some revenge and pride back but I think Webb will be ready and hold on to win by 1.

i'm just talkin like this b/c you got your panties in a wad over a harmless post. and fyi i don't play for anyone so i'm not really helpin anyone out, i'm just a really well informed and knowledgeable observer, glad you know your stuff too though, all you're doin is makin yourself look bad...awesome job. i wasn't makin an out and out attack on you in the first place, just commenting on two aspects of the game that could prove important...your hot head is showing its ugly face right now on this forum. i love how your entire team lives for this stuff...ya'll just need to take it easy, people are always going to talk, its a way of life. anyways, glad you put it by the keeper when it counted tonight bro. dins---i know this goin back and forth is terrible. i just had to say somethin after everyone just blew up following a post where i was tryin to make a point...so i'm done for now on this one.

yeah i know dude and i do know my stuff. what i was referring to was how some untimely outbursts and numerous cards have hurt your team. i wasn't trying to start anything, just pointing out some details, but since you took it there... And, if you'd read, i also mentioned how you now have david back for this game which greatly helps the attack. cak plays so well as a team some ill-advised tantrums (most recently in the farragut game) can upset that and aren't good for anyone involved...it does the team no good, so i'm glad you're really helping there. also i like how you refer to yourself in the third person...real cute

Farragut 3 Bearden 1...i don't have any details though

I'll definitely agree with that. His goals have not only been of the highest quality but at the times when the team needed them most. However, he did not have the equalizer at McCallie, he scored the first not the second. That small detail aside he is hands down one of the very best strikers in the State. He starts a year up for State Champs Arsenal, ODP, and has a powerful and accurate shot...not to mention he is one of the fastest with the ball on his feet.

Russell from Farragut is playing at U of Richmond and Ben Backstrom is playing at W. Kentucky

Playing at Catholic on the cramped field hurts CAK i think. However with David back from injury and if Tarr keeps a cool head i think CAK will take it by one. Should be a great game.

McCallie beat Webb today 4-1. Parks was Webb's only singles win. Wes beat Walling in a close one, 7-5 in the third, but McCallie had a real show of strength today.

Where is the game? I'll go with McCallie 2-1 in extra time.

Are you serious?! Get your bull off here if you're going to talk like that.
