There were some great times at state by Freshmen such as Andrew Bumbolough of BA who finished 2nd in the DII 3200 in a very impressive 9:38.79. Also an 8th grader, G.J. Hudgens of CPA finished 6th in the A-AA 400 in 52.71. While this is a very good time for an 8th grader, G.J. has run sub-52 in early meets.

Kimberly Thorington placed 8th in the state pole vaulting competition with a vault of 8 feet, she is also the one of the first female vaulters at Coffee County Highschool, she has the school record.

Since folks are also talking about rising freshmen on this thread, my 8th grade son (who doesn't even have a school team to compete for) has high jumped 6 feet and pole vaulted 11 feet this year (he hopes to do this well or better in the AAU JO's in Knoxville in August). His high school just started a "limited" track team under which he must be self-coached and they will take him to a few meets. His personal goals for his freshman year (2003) are 6'4" in HJ and 13' in PV. I think these goals may be possible if he doesn't get hurt and stays motivated in a school environment that does nothing for track and field athletes.

Last season, Nelson Rutledge of Stratford High School took 1st in the 400m & 200m and 3rd in 100m with times of 11.1 in the 100, 22.3 in the 200, and 50.3 in the 400 at the Freshman City Championships at MBA. Rutledge was unable to qualify for Regional Finals due to a hamstring injury, but ran second leg on the 4x200m relay which won the Region and also Won State with a time of 1:26.89, with Rutledge's split being a 21.84. Watch for him at the 2003 Regionals in Kenwood.

Liza Wellford of Hutchison placed second in the state D2 300 meter hurdles as an 8th grader last year with a 46.38. That time would have won A-AA and placed sixth in AAA.

 

Elizabeth Krausnick, also of Hutchison, competed in the state 800 as an eighth grader in 2002. Though her state time wasn't great, she had PR'ed with a 2:24.8 two weeks before.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
