Before anyone starts complaining, like last year on here and this year on the football thread, no, it's not a group of the best from throughout Tennessee. It's Southeast Tennessee, probably mainly Hamilton County, just seniors. Even though a lot of the best players won't be playing because of their grade, there's still enough seniors around to put out a strong all-star team. I believe the game is June 23, and I'm told last year the roster wasn't set until just 3 or 4 days before the game.

Don't give it a greater title than what it is then. Call Southest Tn Vs Northwest Ga game.

Sure would be nice to see a game between Southeast TN vs Middle TN. instead of playing the NW Ga team.  Keep it in the STATE!

It's a local cable program and the girls are from Tennessee and Georgia so why does it need to be so specific? What is the problem? Does someone feel like they are being left out? Call Stump Martin and maybe he will be glad to expand on it. He does the same thing for our local football and baseball teams. I'm sure he would love to "network" into other areas.

Not just Hamilton Co.

 

My daughter played on it last year, as did our catcher. Both from Cumberland Co. This is the only all-star team they were eligible to play on and they both kicked butt in both games. A Sequatchie HS girl played on it last year as well, as did other counties. Best looking team I had seen play anywhere, including travel ball. The outfielders ran like gazelles, having played center field for their schools. The infielders had hoovers for gloves and cannons for arms. Both games were great to watch if you are a fastpitch fan.

 

Oh, and to answer the question, it is usually played at Frost Stadium. It has been played there for the past few years anyway.

 

Let there be a Northwest Tennessee area all-star team, let them play SW Virgina and let the game be called the TN vs VA all-star game, or another other part of the state. Does it really matter? There are enough talented ball players to have several.

Most of the players on the Tennessee side (or SE TN, whatever anyone wants to call it) are from Hamilton County. Game is supposed to be a day away as far as I know and I haven't seen the first story on it, much less a roster. Poor job this year on all the games by the Chattanooga paper, virtually nothing until after they've taken place and very little even after.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2.
