I don't remember Stratford ever being called "North" Stratford though.

 

That might be a co-op team of Stratford and the old North Nashville High. Kennedy's title was in the next-to-last year of North's existence. (North served what's now called the MetroCenter area in the Pearl-Cohn zone.) TSSAA lists him as Stratford.

 

Maybe, but I wrestled Tony Kennedy and only knew him as a "Stratford" kid.

Compiling a top 10 best in this country is nearly as American as mom, the flag and apple pie.   From the 10 toughest guys in your neighborhood growing up, to rock-n-roll’s greatest hits of the 60s t

It should just be Stratford High School. North High School closed down more than 45 years ago so no school on co-op.

Travis Creagan/Bradley should be mentioned somewhere. Travis Creagan state finishes 3-1-1-2 (his only losses in the state tournament were to Kyle James his Freshmen year and Brandon Wright his Senior year), and I believe Travis still has the most wins in school history.

Yes I see it NOW. It was not on the original post. If you noticed the list has been edited 5 times already.

Excellent job as usual BB. I don't know how you pulled all of your info but it is impressive. I am sure everybody has their bias towards individuals they grew up with or are in their region; however, your list is thorough and impressive. It reminded me of the old days with some of the names mentioned.

 

Thanks for all you do for wrestling.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.

      Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think.

      “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker.

      Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
