Columbia beat Lincoln Co 12=11. Umpires said it was a heck of a game. Lincoln Co had the tying run at 3rd when the game ended.

QUOTE(grandslam @ Mar 27 2007 - 11:08 PM) 826424546[/snapback]What is wrong with Lincoln County? They are loaded with talent. I know it is early, but I am a little upset with how they are playing. Maybe they will get it going. I just thought they would get off to a better start. Go Falcons!!!

 

 

The Falcons played well enough to win. But hats off to Columbia, they hit the ball well. Both teams hit the ball well. This game went back and fourth all night. The Falcons biggest problem in their losses have been lack of timely hitting. Lincoln Co. has left a ton of runners on base in all of their losses. And to be honest, even in their losses, I don't think anyone has out hit the Falcons. Pitching is more solid this year, but everyone can have an off night. But to answer your question, nothing is "wrong" with the Falcons. They have faced many tough teams, and have come up short in a few of them. Over the past few years, the Falcons have tended to have slow starts, but they ended their seasons strong. And the Falcons are facing quality opponents (Beech, Columbia...). Lincoln Co. will be fine. It's the third week of the season. Things will come together.

Let me second that. Lincoln County's four losses have come to the #4 and #5 ranked teams in Florida, Beech, and Columbia. They have had double digit hit totals in all losses except Beech. They do have a few spots in the order that have not come through in clutch times. They are playing fine, playing hard, just don't have any shut down pitching. Baseball dropped a little in priority last night. Gaskill, their shortstop, was the tying run in the bottom of the seventh after an RBI double. He went to third on a pitch in the dirt, slid headfirst, the ball rolled into the corner, and he couldn't move. He laid on the ground for about 15 minutes unable to move or feel anything. His head jammed into the third baseman's thigh. Apparently an old fashioned "stinger". Doctors say his neck is sprained and he will likely miss some time. Let me again echo that Lincoln County will be fine, it is early, and the best is yet to come.

You are correct. They swept F.C. and lost last night to Columbia. Last night was the first time I`ve got to watch L.C. their starting pitcher wasn`t on from what I`ve heard about him. Columbia swung the bat well.L.C. has 3 seniors that can play. CF, SS and 2B all looked good.Freak play at the end of the game,LC should have tied it up in bottom of 7th. Glad to hear that SS wasn`t hurt bad. LC just didn`t get hits when they needed them. Left 8 runners on base. Give a young Columbia team credit though they played good ball.L.C. had a couple of base running mistakes also that cost them some runs. I think L.C. will be fine come tournament time.

    • 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.
