Great game Bolivar. We were simply outmatched as far as overall speed. Bolivar dominated the offensive glass as well. We hung in there for about 24 mins. Chase never got going till it was to late. Will Peterman played a great game and will be missed next year as will all seniors.

 

But Bolivar was the better team today no question ..no excuses. Good luck rest of the way.

 

 

Congrats to LA on a great season. Many schools would love to make the state tourney two straight years. Props to the team and coaching staff on a great season and good luck in the future.

 

Great job Bolivar and GO TIGERS!!!!!!

Too true! That bolivar team was jst faster and more athletic than Livingston. No ifs, ands, or buts about it.

 

That still doesn't excuse the choke job our guys pulled though. /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

 

I am so disappointed. If our team had played as hard against Bolivar as they did against Tyner, the game woul've been closer. I'm not saying we would've won because it's hard to overcome the athletic talent of Bolivar but they could have at least kept it close down to the buzzer.

 

It just seemed to me that they gave up too early. With five minutes left, they were only down by ten and then they just panicked and began lauching threes every other time they came down the court.

 

It's really frustrating, because I've seen LA play better than they did today. Perhaps it was Bolivar's defense but LA's passes looked lazy and they just did a poor job taking care of the ball. I really don't feel that they brought their A game today and I not sure why.

 

Our window of oppurtunity was slammed shut today by a Bolivar team that came ready to play. Hopefully we can get back next year but it really is too bad for guys like Peterman, Dunn, and West who won't be back.

 

Hope this post doesn't offend other LA fans. I also don't want to take anthing from Bolivar. They got a heck of a team.

 

The better team won.

 

Congrats to Bolivar and good luck the rest of the way.

Congratulations to Bolivar! They played a great game. They have a great team. They came in with a very good half court game plan, stuck to it, executed, and when they missed, they crashed the offensive boards. Shot the 3 ball well too. Ran the floor as needed and just flat out played us. This team can win it all and I for one hope they do. Very team oriented and seemed to be well coached. Good luck the rest of the way!

 

To LA's seniors: what can anyone say? Your hard work for the last four years has been tremendous and has brought this program to another level. You have carried yourselves in such a positive way that has made not only a school/program proud but a community as well. Your play, passion and leadership willl be missed but never forgotten! I just hate that your high school careers ended just short of the goals that you had set.

Congrats to Livingston Academy on a great year, and congrats to the seniors on a very fine career. You have accomplished a lot in your years at LA, and you should be very proud. You have memories that can be cherished for the rest of your life. You have a fine coach that I am certain has instilled a great work ethic, and great team values that will carry over to college, and the real world after that. Good luck to all of you in the future.

 

Those that remain, Good luck to you next year, it will be fun as always. I look forward to it.

 

Congratulations to Bolivar on a great win against a very good team. Best of luck to you the rest of the way.

Someone in an earlier post said Bolivar was 'QUICK', the caps emphisis was his. Maybe he should have underlined it as well. Very, very quick team.

 

..We don??™t care enough about boxing out to win big games.

 

 

The above was attributed to Coach Melton. Speaks volumes when the coach says that.

 

As others have said. The better team won tonight, no doubt. Congratulations to Bolivar and good luck with the rest of the tourny!

 

Hope to see everyone next year.

      They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that.

      The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.

      I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.

      An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.

      All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
