give a ranking for the single A league

[orngnblk]

COLUMBIA ACADEMY!? what a joke...they lost the only good player they had in Mathew Williams, lost their coach, werent even good last year...

 

TOP 5:

 

1.) Clarksville Academy

 

2.) Memphis West

 

3.) Perry County

 

4.) CSAS, Grace Christian,or Grace Baptist(Chatt)

 

5.)Humbolt or Union

Just wondering why you would have GCA in the mix,lost the best player off their team last year,without him they were terrible,what did they get in this year to be a top ten contender?Their JV didnt have much on it either,just wondering.To be four in your poll they must be impressive to you.

I would also ask the same about Grace Baptist. Significant losses from last year and their best player returning is injured. Have they got some new players?

I have heard some good things from programs around them, but I was merely saying that it would be oe of those Chattanooga based teams.

Humboldt returns (3) three starters from last year team and a host of guys that played a lot but all those players start on the football team so they will have to play a lot of young guys early. They are adding a very good young bunch that won the state last year and should have talent for the next couple of years. Somehow Humboldt always gets better during tournament times so we shall see!

You may be right but I have seen a lot of Single A teams beat the stew out of a lot of 3 A teams.!

Ouch... A little harsh right... I realize there have been years where 1A has been down (including this upcoming year), but I can think of several years where 1A has had some really good teams... Good enough to beat anyone in any classification...

 

I mean really what do you expect... 50 kids per class vs. 550 kids per class

 

Also, I would be willing to bet District 14 1A would beat up on district 1,2,4,7,8 in 2A most years...possibly district 1,2 in 3a with the exclusion of DB and SH...

 

Geographic location has about as much to do with competition as classification does...

Well I would say there have been some great single A teams Such as Perry County in 1990's and Union City in the 2000's that not many AAA teams wanted to face and the one's that did went down hard. Class A basketball in Tennessee is very good and the coaching is very good.

We went through about a 10 year stretch in Cosby were bigger schools in our area wouldn't even schedule us, because they knew they were going to get beat and usually beat badly. Someone else said geographic area has more to do with it than size of school, and I agree with that. Places that a rich in tradition were kids grow up dreaming of being the next hometown star usually put out top notch teams.

this may be one of the most uninformed post ever posted on CoachT. I really think the top 15 teams in Single A would beat the bottom 15 teams in AAA. There have also been plenty of instances when a Single A team has moved up to Double A and competed( see CSAS during the 1997-98 season)
