Cookeville will be a great team this year. We did not lose a single player from last years team.

i agree...cookeville looked really good last year as it was and they dont lose anyone..snider (#5?) and yall's middie malone (1?) are both great. they would be considered as my early favorites, but then again i know little about whats going on from the nashville teams. and does anyone know anything about baylor and cleveland?

Cleveland is a solid team that has some good players. They have lots of fast players that dropped soccer to play lacrosse. Two players (brothers) that have played for a long time in Canada. Two players (brothers) that played in Boston. A good solid defense and a decent goalie. However they had a rocky start to their season having to come back from 4-0 to Signal Mountain to win 7-5. Think they underestimated a team that they handled strongly last week at the McCalie jamboree. They play West Knox on the 10th for their first league game.

they're not that solid, considering they lost 23-0 to us

I'd defidently have to go with Franklin again this year, considering it appears to be nearly the same team as last year, minus a good defender Haley. Cookville is in a similar situation though, a solid returning team that beat Franklin once last year. So it should be interesting.

i think franklin has the ability to repeat for the state championship this year. i think the only real teams that have a good chance of beating franklin is cookeville.. i also think that half of the d1 teams couldnt contend for the d2 state title..

[BankofDad]

Actually that is about right. There are 10 teams in D-1; five are ranked by Laxpower higher than Franklin, five are ranked below, so Franklin would be ranked 6th in D-1.

 

I think that would be consistent with where the top team in D-2 would rank and looking back at previous rankings

 

In;

 

2006 - Franklin (D-2 Champs) would have been rank #7

 

2005 - Ravenwood would have ranked 3rd

 

2004 - Cordova would have ranked 4th

 

Fun comparing!

 

Good Luck to Franklin in the rest of their games, that is except for one???
