Summertown Eagles will be 1A.... Less than 700 students 7-12 listed on Public Schools website.... Total population in Summertown is little over 4,100.

 

They will be a force to reckon with in District 12/Region 6 in a few years. Summertown always produces quality athletes. Finally got a sports program for their cornbread fed boys to play. Lol. Along with their baseball/ basketball athletes.... they'll be good.

 

Loretto gets the win.... this team is mTp's final threat.

Yeah they have about 3,000 students

Yea right, maybe if the entire population of Summertown enrolled in high school. lol. I know they are 1A in all other sports, so I am pretty sure they would be 1A in football. But they might be right on the bubble of 2A. I am so glad that Summertown finally got a football team. I've never understood why they didn't have one, especially since they are so competitive in every other sport they compete in.

It is my understanding that a few players will still have to set for the Collinwood game. They are good players, but the next ones in line have really played well. Loretto did not miss a beat last Friday night. In fact, they looked stronger in some areas. I am not talking about the players. Loretto has started to become Multi-Dimensional. In years past we have been a one trick pony. This year we have several ways to score. We have the running game with 3 good backs at all times. Allen, Brown, and Zack. Each of these guys can take it to the house. They are often in the game at the same time. Dalton has some jets also. The Stangs also have a new passing game. It is not fancy, but it will hurt the defense when needed. Rosson has showed me he can lead the offense. He has some very good receivers in Burks, Harris, and Darnell. I think Loretto gets the win. It will be a hard hitting game.

I found this article about the suspensions. I think Loretto reacted too harsh by adding more games.

6 players, 2 fans suspended after Richland-Loretto fight

A Richland football player and a Loretto player that got into a fight in the Mustangs’ 39-6 homecoming win last week have been suspended for three games.

The Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association did not release the names of the players.

The TSSAA suspended the players one game each and the schools added two additional games.

Two players from both schools who pushed and shoved while trying to separate players were suspended for two games. The TSSAA suspended them for one game and the schools suspended them for one game.

Two Richland spectators who were escorted out of the stadium by law enforcement officials for screaming during and after the incident were suspended for one game by Richland.

The TSSAA viewed game video of the incident.

“It did not come close to rising to the level of a brawl, which is the first thing that we heard,†TSSAA executive director Bernard Childress said. “No one came off the sidelines. The coaches did exactly what they’ve been asked to do. Basically, two kids fought and the rest of them were in there pulling other kids apart or pulling people back.â€

Attempts to reach Loretto coach Lee Boyd and Richland coach Troy Hughes were unsuccessful

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
