Alcoa vs. Kingston

In the 70's we could never beat Kingston, but that was when I was trying to coach. In 1973, we threw the winning pass in the end zone and caught it, but we were called out of bounds, that might have been 1972, Kingston won the State Championship that year. In 1969, in a snowstorm that left 3 inches of snow on Goddard Field on November 14. they beat us 8-0 on a kick-off return to our 30 to start the 2nd half, that they pushed in for a touchdown. I remember great games with us as a loser until Little Al caught a touchdown pass in the playoffs around 1990 that allowed us to win 7-0. The tide has turned, probably because of the expertise in coaching, with the leadership of Coach Gary rankin.

I can't wait to see if all these Kingston people thats been running around for a couple weeks running there mouth saying there going to Alcoa and shocking the world will be running that mouth this week after they got that but kicked last night at Lenoir City. I know Rankin doesnt like to run the score up but I would love to see Alcoa drop 70 on them this week just to shut these Kingston people up. Im sticking to what I said a few weeks ago Kingston will go 5-5.

If Kingston beats McMinn Central and gets to 5-5 then they will have an excellent opportunity to qualify for the TSSAA State Playoffs as a 'wild card' team.

 

This is assuming that District 1 does not send Elizabethton, Happy Valley, Johnson County, AND Sullivan North to the playoffs.
