Greenbrier beat David Lipscomb 2-0. Except for Lipscomb's first inning, both teams played good defense.

 

Macon Co. won an elimination game over Springfield, as did MLK over Portland.

 

Anybody have a score from the HFA-Station Camp game?

Lipscomb and Hume Fogg both won today and will meet tomorrow at 2:00 in an elimination game. The winner plays again at 4:00 against the loser of the Greenbrier-Station Camp game this evening. Anybody have a score?

 

Lipscomb has been hitting the ball very well lately. If they continue to do so, they have a great shot at winning two tomorrow. Considering all they have had to overcome this year, they are doing very well. Good luck Lady Mustangs!

Bottom of the 4th, HFA is at bat with a 4-0 lead over Lipscomb.

 

HF is hitting the ball well and has been helped by some poor fielding on the part of Lipscomb. Lipscomb's bats are silent to this point.

 

2nd inning was big for HF.

 

Currently it is 4-1, bottom of the 6th.

Final score, HFA 4 Lipscomb 1.

 

Lipscomb is eliminated. HFA plays Station Camp now to see who plays Greenbrier in the 8AA district finals and a chance to move on to Regionals.

 

Congratulations to the Lady Mustangs on a good year. Losing 7 key players, including Megan Rhodes (4 Seniors, 2 other starters who did not return and 1 other player who was expected to be a starter this year), made this year a year of transition. Add to that the loss of two other starters to injuries, and playing several games without two more starters. I expect Lipscomb to return to the top of 8AA next year.

 

Good luck to HFA, Station Camp and Greenbrier!

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
