who would you guys say made the best transition from last year to this year? [sophomore year to junior year being the transition (using sophomore&junior as an example)]

who's your most improved runner from last year to this year in track? (or xc)

who has made the best approach and improved the most?

A/AA:

Track - Nolan Davis and Brandon Mahaney, can't really decide who should get it, probably nolan just because to me he was the biggest surprise

XC - Clabo, I know the reason he had such a bad junior year was because of injury but he still improved more than just about anyone in xc. Harper would probably be my next pick.

that's pretty impressive.

i would say adam cunningham and andrew harper have had exceptional seasons.

both great runners in the 1600 and harper having ran well in the 800 also

 

i think i'm going to have to agree that andrew harper was probably the biggest improvement in the state. who would've seen him going 4:23/1:57 this year? that pretty much came out of nowhere. skyler moots was definately on the radar before this year but i didn't think he was quite on the 4:20/1:55 level so that was a big improvement. there were also a lot of AAA guys that made huge drops especially in the the 32 like helton and chandler

yeah i agree with you.

helton improved 19 or 20ish seconds for the ######. 9:58 (9:59) freshman year ? to a 9:39 soph. year.

and chandler ran very well.

had a great 32 at state and a very good time in the 16 at NON 9:26/4:19 and ran very well again at FL South 15:35

4 others are Joe Coneo, Nate Edelman, Zeek Raney, and his brother Jake had a decent year as a freshman.

 

Joe = great year in cross and pretty good miler and half miler

Nate ran very well = 4:29 miler, 9:31 in the 32 at Mobile Meet of Champ. 15:45 at FL South.

Zeek = 16:23 was his best 5k time. thought he was decent at the 32.

Jake = decent year in cross and decent as well in the 32.

    • The Girls Basketball team I am a part of played for a gold ball this season. One of the biggest differences in the sports is that there is no field prep/maintenance in basketball.   Our baseball is successful and play 30 games in the regular season as well. All of the teams dedicate A LOT of time in preparing for their next opponent.

    • Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say they have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented?
