For Division II, 6'3" sophomore Glory Johnson of Knoxville Webb deserves Miss Basketball. Glory has helped her team to a 21-5 record which includes wins over AAA William Blount with Georgia commitment Angela Puleo, a win over Walker Valley led by Alabama signee Alyson Butler and a win over Powell led by Alabama commitment Caitlin Hollifield. Webb won the prestigious Greene County Bank Ladies Classic this season. Glory was named MVP of that tournament. Glory has scored 1,015 points for her career. This season Glory has scored 482 points, 278 rebounds, 67 blocked shots, 71 steals and 32 assists. That averages to 18.5 pts/game, 10.7 rbs/game.

I have no idea what the Memphis area has to offer for Division II Miss Basketball candidates. I know Lausanne is 25-2 and they must have 1 great player?

From the Middle Tennessee area, I would think that <a href='http://www.coacht.com/inside/team.cfm?SchoolID=37&SportID=2' target='_blank'>Brentwood Academy</a> junior Victoria Dunlap based on what I have heard in the past would be a nominee. Maybe someone else in Middle Tennessee has stepped up and had a good season like the Father Ryan girl mentioned earlier.

For AAA, I think Casha Foster from Cumberland County should be in the running. She has lead her team to being ranked as one of the top teams in the state. She scores points, has bunches of assists and steals, and is the second top rebounder on the team. She is a team player and has a great attitude. That is what Miss Basketball should be all about.

I cant believe no one has mentioned William Blount's Angela Puleo a junior that has committed to Georgia averages 25 pts 6 rebs 5 assist 3 steals a game from the guard postion. Keke is so much bigger that all of her opps. she is suppose to do all that scoring and rebounding and she plays in one of the weakest overall district in 3A. Keke is great but dont u expect someone that much stonger and bigger to dominate.

 

I like to Glory Johnson girl from Webb also she can play and will play big time college ball. A 6'3 post that and handle the rock.

Hey folks, It's really easy to pick these players for Miss basketball that play on some pretty good teams. The person chosen for Miss or Mr. Basketball should be more than that. For isnstance, no one can argue that Cait Mcmahan is a great player but look at her Heritage team. They keep right on winning without her. Angela Puelo goes down and her team knocks off Heritage without her. It's not that any of these players aren't as good as people say but it's a lot easier to be good when you are surrounded with other good players. Most of the names mentioned for miss basketball play on some darn good teams surrounded by really good talent. I'm not saying that players like Bianca Thomas, Brandi Brown, Kee Kee Stewart, and others aren't talented or deserving players but most if not all play on some talented teams. There are some trully talented and gifted players that aren't from notable programs. My choice is junior Dawn Evans from Clarksville-Northeast. She is the leader of a young inexperienced team that lost 4 starters and the sixth man from a team that went 33-5 a year ago and led them to a 22-7 record so far. She leads or is among the top 5 in almost every major statistical category as a point gaurd, 23.3 ppg, 7 assist pg, 3.5 steals pg, 4 reb pg, and 67 three pointers made/ 2.6 pg. Quite an accomplishment when everyone's game plan is to stop you. She has excelled against some of the best players in the country at Mike White's Adidas Showcase Tournament and The Adidas Top Ten All Amrican Camp. A well kept secret (except for the colleges) and a great player.

In AAA don't forget Casha Foster of Cumberland County. She plays with a lot of heart and has helped in Cumberland County's two awesome seasons a lot. I can also vouch for Jackie Pickel because we've played her too. She's great player that leads that team and does a great player. The other ones that I have been mentioned I've never seen play but these are definitely two that should be on the ballot.

JANA CROSS SHOULD BE A MISS BASKETBALL FINALIST. SHE HAS OVER

2000 CAREER POINTS AND WELL OVER 1000 REBOUNDS. SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST UNSELFISH PLAYERS YOU WILL EVER SEE. JANA IS A CLASS ACT ON THE

COURT AND OFF. SHE IS THE TOTAL BASKETBALL PACKAGE, REBOUNDING,

SCORING, ASSISTS,SHOT BLOCKING, PRESS BREAKING.

 

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT SHE IS AN AWESOME PLAYER

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
