Riverdale came from behind at one point by 16 to win over Memphis Central, who gave the Warriors all that they had this afternoon. While Barbee had 23 to lead the Warriors, she was helped by Middleton with 18. I have no other scoring but it appears Central has put themselves back in the running with the group of schools in contention for the State Tournament Championship at the end of the season.

Went down to watch this game this evening, the lady Warriors from Memphis did play and give Riverdale all they wanted for 3+ quarters, the M'Boro lady Warriors done one thing, they never gave up or waivered from their play. This should be a lesson to all schools, being down by 15 at the half, they came back and chipped away and won it in OT with clutch play and hitting Free throws. Good game to watch

While I gave scoring of two RD players, scoring 74 points had to have numerous other players help. Anyone having the scoring for RD and Central might post them on this site. This must have been a terrific game.

What is going on with Wilson Central, they are obviously a great team and last time I looked were ranked high yet they have an 11-8 record????

Sorry meant Memphis Central

To their defense and maybe not, MC has played a schedule with a lot of schools out of State and many have not known how to rank them and still don't. It has been obvious they are better than average and have some great players. The intangibles have been the unknown. Eight losses are 8 losses but they mean nothing at the end of the year when one loss puts you out. It would appear that they are in the running for the 8 schools who will be in the running for the STATE but they first have to get out of Region 8 and the substate . There is no doubt they have some great players but they will have to take care of business as far as losing with a 16 point lead at half and being outscored so badly the last quarter. Depth is likely something they have not been able to work on with the schedule and 8 losses. That's a lot of traveling. They are where they are and are in the mix. No other school in the State has come this close in beating Riverdale. There are other schools in the State that will be able to play them as close as Riverdale did. They have already surfaced.

This fact is obvious. Central's top two players, it has been posted, are juniors. With their method of zoning, their freshman class is likely the best in Memphis it has been thought. What is there is there. That is good and hopefully will stay that way. The school will be good for some time. The rest of the schools in Memphis can do some make up as far as talent the next few years. Getting out of Memphis will be harder the next two three years.

Well, hotshot, I'll tell ya...nothing. Of the 19 games they have played this year, 11 of them are against top 400 teams in the country. They have beaten #40 Chicago Young, #145 San Jose Mitty, and #396 Oakland O'Dowd. They have lost to #1 Brea Olinda,CA/#2 Poly,CA/#5 Bolingbrook,IL/#7 Riverdale/#8 Potter's House,FL/#12 St. Mary's,CA/#16 N.Little Rock/#106 Monarch,CO. That is a brutal slate. After that kind of competition they will be more than ready for the TN playoffs. Don't worry about Central. They will be hanging around till the state title when they play Riverdale again.....

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • 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.
