Flourishing New Team!


Recommended Posts

Got to throw some congrats out to the Blue Angels (Lady Jets) 16-u team for making it to the semi-finals of the TN Miracle Classic this weekend. Finishing in the top 4 of this 16-team tournament is huge, considering the fact that it is one of the most competitive events in the South. Even more impressive is that they accomplished this with a team made up entirely of players from the same high school - half of which were playing out of their age group by 1 or 2 years. Not only did they compete against all-star squads from other states, they beat several of them including two different Dayton Lady Hoopstars (DLH) teams - a powerhouse organization from Ohio.

You should see the look on people's faces when they realize that their "put-together" team just got beat by a high school team! Especially some rude, obnoxious ones from Dayton...

Just a good example that chemistry, toughness, and teamwork can make up for alot. But, pure size and talent will win out if there is enough of it - as evidenced by the SC (Nike) 76'ers!

Still, this bunch turned alot of heads this year with what they accomplished as a high school team playing in the world of AAU all-star squads. Congrats ladies, I enjoyed it...hope you did too...

I'll be looking forward to watching you this winter!

The 9U team was Team Pride and Pride beat the angels by about 20

I'm not trying to be a sore loser, but the game against the pride was officiated poorly, and it was much closer than the score will tell. ---The Angels had to foul toward the end of the game!!! they were within 8 in the 4th quarter! thumb

final 40 to 19.  Very few free throws made in the game and Never got within 15

in the 4th.  It seems like it is always the refs......  Maybe it was just a bunch little 9 year olds who really play hard.

Well I am a blue angel and we played hard ball and we are 9 and 10 year olds. We only practice once a week. What other team do you see as good as ours that doesn't practice all the time. It's just a game but we always want to win. The refs were horrible and we've played in two other tournaments and we've never complained before. We work hard to win each ballgame, too hard to get cheated out of it. :P Thanks this is radiojet's lil sis. Blue Angel and we will be playing in Cookville this weekend and we are going to win. Thanks! B)

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
