Too short? Yeah, tall goalies have advantages, but being short has a DEFINITE advantage.  The hardest thing for a goalie to do is get down on the ground.  I kno this from experience considering my brother is a remarkable goalie.  Short definitely CAN leave u lacking on some high shots, but if hes got ups. Does he?

Just what is considered too short?

 

Quickness, good hands, overall instincts and command of the field are far more important issues than just plain height! :P People get caught up way too much over height. I'll take a keeper at 5'10" with the above qualities over a 6'4" basketball player any day.

Good point. From playing against Carlos, he seems to be extremely vocal. Robby doesn't talk as much, but for a 6'4 basketball player, he is good. The best thing about Robby is that he can get down low like he was 5'10, but can obviously reach the corners. Jeremy Williams is good and should be the best keeper in the city next year. Chris Penn is also good, but has a few things to work at. Since he is only a sophmore, he should be the best here in 2 years in the Chattanooga area.

Robbie Miller is far from cocky. He's very quiet and unassuming if you ask me. Big, fast, and doesn't let goals in. I would bet that he has the smallest goals against average in the state. I know that he did up until last week. I would add to the list of "best goalies", Alex Crabtree from McCallie, I know he's the toughest. He got knocked out at the ND game and played the rest of the game and still ended up with a clean sheet from what I heard. Hixson goal keeper Josh Ralph may really be the best in the state. His goals against average is really great and you know that he has had lots of shots come at him. I wonder if anyone keeps stats on saves?

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      Eagleville hosting shows laziness on the part of the TSSAA and a complete disregard for the appearance of impartiality. Absolutely nothing against EHS. Its not their fault TSSAA is lazy.    I understand EHS staff work the games at Eagleville, and they don’t want to miss the EHS games. However this isn’t rocket science. It would take less than 1 hour to cross-train EHS and RHS volunteers at the opposite sites. If Eagleville (or any host)  makes the tournament, flip their game site and have the volunteers flip sites for the days their school plays at the opposite site. Magically the school’s fans would be present to watch the their kids play and the kids at least lose some familiarity and home field advantage.  It takes almost no effort and is a ~15 minute extra drive.

      Jason Lambert should be the only choice for the Baseball coaching position.

      From the stats I found online it looks like Gabe Eddington- .484, 44 total hits, 43 runs scored and 42 stolen bases.Meanwhile, on the mound, the Austin Peay commit had a record of 8-2, while compiling 50 innings pitched with an ERA of 1.82. Carson Parrott - 7-0 overall as a starting pitcher with a 1.41 ERA, 95 strikeouts and a save in 53 and 1/3 innings pitched. Parrott hit .392 with 3 home runs, 21 RBIs with a .566 OBP and .716 SLG. Jaxon Walker - .454, 53 hits, 38 RBI’s, 9 HRs.   Not saying the other three aren’t deserving but Quillen had better BA than all three and was just as dominate pitching.  Like I said I don’t know how you leave off the 3a Baseball player of the year last year when he put up better numbers.  I know Greeneville’s Coach wasn’t happy about it saying “I don’t give a s*** what anybody else says. That kid is the best player in Tennessee, and everybody else on our team rises to his level“.  I’m sure winning another State Championship as a junior is more important to Carson than the individual award, it’s just a head scratcher to not be nominated
