FRA 4 USN 3 FRA wins in pks 2-2 after regulation both teams score in first 10 minute overtime goes to pks FRA wins with 3 out of 4 made USN was 2 out 0f 5

FRA 7 Mount Juliet Chrisyian Academy 0

FRA took a quick 3-0 lead then pulled some starters and really played all young players. I hate to hear it when people say coaches can't control score. In the last 4 years Coach McDonald has never scored more than 9 goals in a game that wasn't close and never has he allowed a player to score more than 3 goals unless it was a close game. He kept the game competitive without embarassing the other team and still gave some players chances to really play and develop. Not just keep away.

FRA 2 DCA 1 Great night for Soccer DCA scored first about 6 minutes in then FRA responded with goal by Morgan Crofford In the stoppage time of first half FRA scores when Carly Bowen puts in Corner kick from Crofford. How about a little love for the Panthers they had a tough last 4 games and did well with 2-2 ties at BGA at St. George and at JCS then finally a win last night.

I am surprised that FRA has fallen so far in the polls. They still are very talented and have more depth than ever before. Yes they lost two great players last year to DI schools but that happens almost every year to the top schools. They looked very good last night against Goodpasture and I guess after the next two weeks with ECS, JCS, BGA, DCA and Briarcrest we will no more. Don't count them out of State picture just yet.

last Night FRA 6 Davidson Academy 1 at DA Field

8/13/09 Hendersonville 1 FRA 0 at FRA good game only score a header on corner kick.

8/11/09 Independence 4 FRA 0

On 8/6/09 FRA played Harpeth and won 7-1 They will be strong again this year no matter what division. They play Independence tonight and Hendersonville Thursday in scrimages. In the regular season they play BGA, Pope John II, Briarcrest, CPA and Brentwood Academy just to name a few. They are very young with only 3 seniors and 2 juniors. will be interesting year

I will give a recap from Middle Tn. perspecive on the game. FRA came out fast and hard. I think ND Fans (not team or coach) was a little surprised that they had not read how they were not supposed to be able to play with ND. FRA scored on 2 throw in which actualy happens more often than you think. ND scored after FRA went up 1-0 to tie game before FRA got the second goal. 2-1 at half. ND never quit and attacked continually in the second half as FRA played a kinda "prevent" defense. That probably has a little to do with the SOG difference. Great crowds very loud but well behaved as usual. Both schools are classy and respectful of each other and their programs. I hope they get to continue to play even wiith the divisional change.

I don't think he was trying to be sarcastic (for once).

Enough about FRA what about Seymour? What are their strengths and who are some of the quality wins they have this year.

FRA 3 CPA 0

FRA had starting sweeper Morgan Alexander out with the Flu and Abby Wharton who is the other starting fullback in middle rolled her ankle 7 minutes in to the game. That left FRA with very young (3 freshman) at back line and Freshman goali in a tough spot. FRA led 2 nothing at half and Coach Mcdonald opted to let young players get experience instead of putting Pitts Crofford and Smith or some combination on the back line to try to secure the win. BA can out and played a strong second half but the game could have been different if FRA had played different style in second half I think. Great experience for young defenders. Kara Parkey for BA took the game over in the second half with a assist and 2 goals.

Big game today in middle Tn. Any predictions on outcome? I have heard FRA is not healthy. Who are BA top players to watch?

FRA beat JPII 3-2 last night

FRA 7 LA 0

please keep the Nigro Family in your thoughts and prayers Kat was unable to play because her mother was in a car accident this morning and was taken to Chattannoga emergency room. The FRA players and familys wish them the best and a speedy recovery

I will be at the game and post a report tonight. I think FRA will win 4-2. FRA has a very young defense and it could be exploited by a really good player like Kat but if she doesn't have help they will be able to control her. FRA has 2 of the best coaches in the area maybe the state and the will have a great game plan ready. FRA has 3 players up top who can score from anywhere and they play very well together. Two have already committed and one is just a Jr. and will probably committ later. Hope the weather holds up. Game might be broadcast on the web which can be found on the FRA hompage. Follow the links for football on the web and you will find it. Not great picture but I have had people from all over country tell me it is not bad.

Any thoughts on FRA VS CPA. Rematch of the state championship game last year. The game is at FRA at 7:00pm. I know this will be a hard fought battle and you can throw the records out the door when theses two play.

Why do we care about the polls so much besides the "discussion" factor. This is not the BCS poll like in college football where the championship game is determined by the polls. Every team has a shot to progress through the District, Regional and Sectional tournament and advance so why do the polls even matter. I would much rather discuss teams and players that impact the tournament than the Rankings that have no impact. If someone could tell me why CPA, my pick to win state, is off to a slow start or who are the players to watch for CAK or ND that would be great. Just a thought.

One of the best moments I have seen Lately was At FRA when boys HS football team had to play a scrimage on the practice field because the girls soccer team had a scrimmage scheduled at the same time. The parents from the other school could not believe they were walking past the beautiful stadium to the practice field while "girls soccer" was being played. I love and support football but the look on the faces of football fans was priceless.

Chattanoogan.com should have a schedule up with times and locations fairly soon if not already. At least I asked him too...

FRA plays Coffee County at 5:30 today What kind of team does Coffee County have and what division are they in?

8/26/2008 FRA vs Davidson Academy @ FRA FRA 7 Davidson 1

Good game a litle rain but conditions good. FRA has several freshman who are really stepping up and making contributions. This Thursday vs. BGA at FRA should be good game.

Did BGA lose a bunch of players? Why have the mighty fallen so much? CPA is the sleeper in AA. They could win it all.

FRA VS Ensworth @ EHS good game EHS 3 FRA 2

FRA vs. Hendersonville 8/12/08 7:00pm Nice night for soccer FRA won 2-0 in their best game to date. Kaitlen Smith and Morgan Crofford had goals. There are 4 to 5 Freshman who are really playing well.

FRA vs USJ in Jackson FRA winner 3--0 in three 30 minute halves Crofford Pitts and Smith had Goals USJ is a tough team and has very good goal keeper and tough defenders
