McCallie Netters Stay Unbeaten

 

It was Senior Day at the McCallie-Ensworth tennis match on Friday and Tornado seniors responded with an 8-0 triumph against their Nashville opponents.

 

McCallie coach Eric Voges could have played ???Rain Drops Keep Falling On My Head'' (B.J. Thomas; #1 January 1970) before the match, as the inclement weather pushed the players to the indoor courts at the John Strang Tennis Center.

Nonetheless, the Blue and White improved to 9-0 overall and 3-0 in the East/Middle Region and extended its home win streak to 35 straight. Ensworth is 6-5 overall and 2-3 in region play.

 

Seniors recognized prior to the match were William Disterdick, Thomas Fanjoy, Ryan O'Boyle, Taylor Rogers, Chris Schlabach, Clay Shepherd, Sawyer Voges and Nathan Winters.

 

Region Show Down: McCallie faces its toughest test of the season next Wednesday (May 6) at 4 p.m. as it hosts Knox. Webb (11-1, 3-0) for the top spot in region. The top five teams in the East/Middle and the top three in the West in TSSAA Division II-AA advance to the state quarterfinals.

 

Webb is led by defending state singles champion Brandon Fickey.

McCallie sure looks strong.

 

Any thoughts on who is favored on the girls side? Baylor? GPS?

Hutchison, runner-up to GPS last season, is 11-0 and won the West Region. A Webb - Hutchison Final with both teams undefeated is could happen.

    • 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. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
