Defender2, I am the coach at Alcoa, I have a feeling you play in our district, come by and introduce yourself when we play, I like meeting the CoachT family. And if you don't want me to know who you are, I understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akula21 Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Defender, our matches have always been good since I have been here, so I am also looking forward to it. Good luck this week, see you on friday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easttnref Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I agree with sportsnut. Carter did play a lot better possession compared to last year and it's good to see Mark back in action. Although Mark did score all two goals, don't think that Mark is the offense like it was in the past. Other players had many opportunites on goal that were good shots. Karns possessed the ball very well...when they scored the first goal to make it 2-1 with around 15 minutes left, Karns played very energized and had a lot of momentum on their side and later scored the next goal. They are a good team. oh so mark just scores against the good teams and pads stats and scores five goals against the bad ones what happened to stopping at a hat trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akula21 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I have to admit I am not fond of a player getting more than 3 unless you need it from them. I think Mark scored 5 in a game against william blount but the game finished in a 5-5 tie, so that is ok. I know my players hate getting pulled, but I don't see a reason to leave them out there a risk an injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigginDitches Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Yes, Mark played his first game against Central on Tuesday. He had 5 goals and 3 assists in the game. This Carter team is different than teams in the past. This year, Carter doesn't have to run all their offense through Mark. IMO the defense of just triple teaming Mark will not work like it has in the past. I think Carter might surprise a few people as long as they keep playing possession soccer. If they resort back to the boot ball style, it will be another disappointing season. Wrong! I watched SD play Carter in the Jamboree when Carter was playing without Mark and they shut them down, i think they had like 2 shots on goal or something. Also they have a weak defense. Oh, and they play in a weak district! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and they play in a weak district! No offense, but you can't take anything away from the Knox jamboree. The fields were too muddy to give any team any type of possession. The jumboree was a kick and run type teams dream, because teams like West, Farragut, Catholic, etc... couldn't possess the ball with any real success because of the field conditions. I can't even count how many times I saw teams try to pass the ball around and the ball just all of a sudden stop in a puddle and the other team was off to the races.

akula21 Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 seems like digginditches is probably a SD player or supporter who just joined after they beat seymour and wants to do some chest thumping. Congrats on the win, but I'd be careful bashing carter when you are going to be playing them in a few weeks. And while you think our district may be weak, we have the toughest region in the state.

Good luck this week, see you on friday night. when is the game rescheduled for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
