And as for track, I can't wait for the 800. Bring them all on gphstrack, i'll be waiting.

 

I won't be bringing anything on since I finished my high school running career ten years ago.

 

However, the runners I coach will happy to bring any distance race on. I think the East Section is going to dominate at state this year, so train hard this winter, ok?

 

2007 Predictions:

 

A/AA - Brosemore and Coniglio.

AAA - Kroeger and Sonnenfeldt.

D-II - Zimmerman and Young.

 

Have a great winter.

those are bold but odd predictions

 

i also think that the west will dominate track. middle and east cant match their supreme sprinting and field even abilities.

 

when is the last time an east team won state a/aa in track.....that would be Austin-East High School in 1987. so good luck

very true about the west and sprinting/field events. i was only talking about distance because west is usually really really weak in those events. in fact, i almost wish they'd reformat the qualifying structure. it always grieves me that sub-10:00 runners are left out of the state meet and two 10:45 guys are running from west tn. it's always a 6 man race at state...and it should be the best 8 runners in the state.

the middle last year had i tihnk 5 guys under 10 and then the west gets in a 10:45 and a 10:50

 

dont u tihnk there should be a qualifying cuttoff. maybe 10:15 for 3200 and 4:45 for 1600

that's an interesting thought. i am the faculty rep for our swim team and swimming has time cuts for state qualifying. the problem with that is that the state meet has grown ridiculously large. this year the state association had to make some pretty drastic time cuts because the aquatic center in nashville put a limit on the number of swimmers due to space issues. then you always have the issue of falsifying times, so we'd have to make sure that all meets were automatic timing, which would not be fair to a lot of smaller programs. plus, since tssaa isn't willing to use the AAA state meet format in A/AA, speculation of time cuts is probably pointless.

    • Same with Eisfelder from Providence not even getting a look in DII 1A.   But to me the biggest head scratcher is Collins from Lookout Valley. He wasn't even voted the best pitcher or player on his own team, a team that lost like 20 baseball games. Mind blowing. 
    • Whispers abound suggesting that Robbie Atwood has been observed surreptitiously shadowing the erstwhile football coach on numerous occasions. Does such conduct align with the standards of acceptability? 
    • Is it conceivable that BJ West will maintain his ardor if it necessitates forgoing attendance at his progeny's culminating year of scholastic endeavors? Such a scenario appears implausible upon closer scrutiny. 
    • Wartburg heading to state for the first time in school history. Braylen Melton (sophomore) threw a 1 hitter today against North Greene. 
    • I havent kept up with Keeton since he went to Oakland, so hearing he is in a BOE role now, that may trump him coming back.  Rennard on the other hand. That dude is a Man Builder! And he was cut loose this spring from Scotts Hill. Heard him in a interview a few months back and he inspired me. He needs to be back home in the Purple & Gold, regardless of if he is HC or not or even if he doesnt coach at all, his presences will improve the environment. But Again, I have no clue if he would even be interested.
