Come on Coach B we knew things were down when you were there the 1st time but you did get the best JR high team LC has seen in 20 years. There are no Springer, Valentine, Mills, Copeland, JOnes or Yancy coming for several years. ANd just like last time you are probably going to lose a Flowers to DC. all that is irrelevant you work hard, you cannot help the region you play in that is why the wins against teams above 500 are not there. Support for football has always been at LC you just know how to make things happen.

It would fall under NFHS rules which requires it.

TSSAA does require a batters box some umps just allow you to play without it. Umpires have the right to delay the game until the home team paints a box and lines. Sometimes it is just not enforce this.

I think he meant he has to do it to compete with Memphis teams. He's accusing DC coach of recruiting. Same o Same o. Just someone that likes to stir up trouble that's all. Last time I checked. PO's recruiting was simply other coaches not working. If I am correct the Harris boy was never given any attention from Blackwood (like not being able to use facilities), Lumley told the Newell kid he does not play freshman no matter how good they are. and Lake Co baseball does not play together in the summer so that shows lack of interest from the coaches (I know they say the kids wont show up but you play with who does and let the others just play football 1 year of letting them sit the bench will get your point across) So you can call it recruiting.

Thanks for clearing that part up... So they play separate tournaments...One for the North and one for the South...How many teams from each sub tournament advances to see who moves on to the regionals??... Do all the teams in the North Division play in the postseason tournament since there are 5 teams in the North but only four teams in the South ?? I'm with you though..In Central's case they play 40 games if they get them all in...They play everybody in the district in home and home series except Crockett County, who they don't play at all...Looks to me like they could drop a couple of those 1A schools and play Crockett and count all the games...Do all the teams in the district play the same type of district schedule??..Play everybody except one team??... No not all teams have that type of schedule. Format for tourney will be 4 in the south plays 5 in the north for a play in game. Then you will format with a 8 team tourney playing at the higher seed until you reach the final 4 then they play this year in Millington at USA field and next year at Union City.

They play Ripley again...Covington twice and Haywood three times (once in a tournament that wouldn't count) but they don't play Crockett County at all...I would think those games would count in some way but then again this is the first year I have even really kept up with high school baseball... games against Haywood, Ripley, and Covington do not count for district record because they are not in their division. Only games against Dyersburg, Westview, Milan, Gibson count. Not playing everyone really does not seem fair to the 4th and 5th place teams in the respective sides since 4 or 5 in one side could be better than a 3 in the other side.

He is new assistant superintendent I do believe

Really doubt they are ranked higher than Bartlett or Farragut but it is still a quality win!

The jackson foul at the end of the game given to #11 should have been corrected by the official book keeper who would be from DC. It was clear that the officials messed up but it should have been corrected. However, It was other players that stepped up. Good season DC.

007 why don't you send him an e-mail? I'm sure he will leave David Lispcomb (NCAA D1 school) and come to LC. I love how people bash him. "He wasn't a good coach they didn't win." Look at the rosters from his 2 seasons there and the ones after. Tell me what Coach in TN wouldn't win with what DC had in 05-06. Don't take this as a bashing of McCord he is winning games and is probably filling sets. (I can't say as I haven't been this season) He also changed the schedule (no 13AA). Angie would have won more games this year in 13AAA. However this thread is about LC. LC does not have the horses it has had in the past years. SO Whitby as he always does has a purpose. Like it or not he will tell you all about it just ASK!

Its part of the reason I think this new system is crazy. Its got something to do with Dyersburg and Ripley being in the same district but not the same region. With the 9 team region the TSSAA gave the coaches and Admin the choice to play 8 region games which means only 2 nonregion games or to break into 3 pods. The coaches including Coach Counce picked to play in pods (Dyersburg, Crockett, Obion; Gibson, Milan, Westview; Ripley, Covington, Milan). U play two teams from every pod with the choice of playing other teams nonregion. Dyersburg did not draw Gibson and Ripley. With Wheeler leaving Ripley he chose to play Dyersburg instead of DC. I am sure that Counce was very happy to play Ripley.

Game is at DC with the Baseball team receiving their state championship rings

Kentucky does not allow games to start with high heat I am sure that TN will follow. Some schools already start late when games are to be started at high temps. But if they do allow games to start in the heat they should allow practice in the heat!

I would say that they will not be playing either so it will be games that start at 8 or later

Who got the boys job!

Even more brother Stephen

They are the same person and will be a great hire for the Falcons

He was trying to pick Peggy up last weekend at the AAU tourney in Lake Co. But she said she would not come b/c she has got used to winning. She would be a great hire relates to kids well and is a great coach

He had already said before he took over that he still wants to play the 13AA TEAMS b/c he thinks they will be AA in 4 years

They run the Tony Franklin spread. He has been there for about 10 years. He played at Lambuth. Good guy!

Franklin King

Long bus rides and even tougher region

I would have to say the junior class is pretty talented especially without a post. At Northview they beat everything in Gibson County, beat all in obion by Hillcrest who had 2 good post players and won the middle school state championship. So to say they always have not got what was needed in middle school is not true.

Who will be the new coach? Better yet like you are saying who would want the job! What about former coaches who are DC alumni like Poindexter and Larue?

Mineral Area last I was told a JUCO
