Battle For The State

[War Eagles]

Who will win the 2nd annual Battle for the State at Lipscomb University?? The teams that are playing in this prestigious event include host team Sycamore, Riverdale, Union City, Independence, Brentwood Academy, Livingston Academy, Haywood County, and Mt. Juliet. I believe Sycamore can win this tournament if they play like they're capable of and not committ too many turnovers. Good luck to all teams. This should be a great tourney with some outstanding players in it.

Sycamore can beat Union City if they limit their turnovers and can shoot the ball better /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />
