Defense was a little off the first game but they will get it with some work. They are still trying to figure out where they are supposed to be. They need to take care of the ball better on offense, take better shots and pass a little better. Overall they played pretty well for the first game and having so many guys who just came out of football. I think if they play ball, they will beat Tn High tonite.

If they run the floor this season as they have so far and once the football players get their legs, they will be hard to beat. NOT unbeatable but close IF they control the floor and play TEAM ball!

Not seen any 'me' ball yet. Hope we don't cause, as a unit, they are tuff!

Is the Hampton, TN. High game in Bristol? It said in the JC Press Basketball preview is was at Daniel Boone, dont know why though

Sorry '1, just saw ur question. It was at Bristol and the DOGS took the W. ....A bit sloppy and hesitation on offense but they'll get it together.

Hill is a MONSTER when he wants to be! Football players still a bit rusty. ...

Go Dogs

Offensively this wasnt a pretty game, the Dogs would build a 8-10 point lead, then Tn High would get back in it, then the Dogs would pul back out to a 7-9 point advantage. Once early on the third, Tn High pulled ahead by a point or two, but Hampton pushed back out to a comfy lead entering the forth, then just held on for the win. Last year in this game Tn High bombed away from the 3 point line and cruised to a win, so this was a good game for the Dogs to pull out. The final was 52-47. Hampton now has won their first two games to start the season, both over AAA competition, and really hasnt gotten anywhere near where they will be later in the season. Hopefully they can continue to improve and get their b-ball legs as the year goes on. This could be a special season for Hampton, they just have to keep their heads in the right place, and keep playing team ball. Go Dogs! :thumb:

I know that Hampton has other games to worry about 1st, but I see where they drew Wasilla in the Arby's!

I hope they are as excited about this match-up as many of us are!

I dont know just how good Wasilla is, but I imagine they are good... and why waste your time if you're not gonna be out to beat the best the field has to offer? :thumb:

 

This team proved they can play with upper division schools this past spring...just gotta get ready!

 

The DOG NATION is sure ready! :popcorneater:

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
