You were right but considering Owls 2nd best scorer wasn't at the game. Wood had 48Hrs notice after never seing team, and only had 1 senior I thought it was a heck of a game. SD started up 9-0 in 1:30 from that point on Owls switched to Man defense and outscored SD 45-40. Marshall played shutdown defense on McNeil and overall Owls played their guts out. Thought Coach Wood did great job being up 1 with ball with 1:45 to go Marshall slipped on floor and turned ball over (not his fault) then to late cheap 1 on 1 Fouls.

 

Heck of a game Owls played their guts out. Wood outcoached Shumate and it was just a great game. Soddy-Daisy had much better, bigger and more sound team but almost got beat by hustle and coaching.

 

Great Job Coach Wood.

Wow. Ooltewah is just not the same team as they have been in the past few years are they. I know everyone thought last years team was going to be down after the loss of a few of there best players and they surprised everyone. Now after losing another great bunch of kids I thought they would rebound. But I guess they couldnt recover after losing last years bunch. I see that murray is really trying to carry his part. Hopefully they can pick it up. Congrats to coach wood on good coaching job.

Coach Woods, knows what she's doing when it comes to basketball. With her experience with coaching soddy last year, she helped the boys know how to guard Soddy's point guard. Tney did one heck of a job playing defense against them, and their foul shot % was pretty good. From what I hear, she told them in the locker room, that all they had to do on the free throw line was to do everything theyare comfortable with shooting but rememeber to follow through with your wrist. They shot very well, and they actually looked like a guys team that plays offense. She is an amazing coach, and it was a very close game, Ooltewah could have easily won that game. Soddy really did get lucky. Good Fight to both teams

    • 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.
