This one has the makings to be a great game...Austin Lees had 362 all-purpose yards against Huntland and scored five touchdowns...And by now everyone knows about Cascade's Creed Rose. I daresay this one has the makings to be the best meeting between these two teams. Gonna be a good one on Friday night.

Cascade wins this one hands down I don't see Community stopping the Rose kid he's really tough, Moore Co. never stopped him entirely slowed him down some but that was about it, Rose is a star in the making watch out the next two years if he doesn't get hurt ,. He will be a force to reckon with,A one man recking crew.

This normally would have all the makings of a "trap" game for Cascade. Coming off a tough loss to an undefeated Moore County team and facing what has been their biggest district rival over the past seven years in Forrest following this game. The tendency is to overlook a team like Community because they honestly have been pretty bad in years past. This year is an exception, they have a lot of talent and a veteran team. Also have more numbers than in years past. Kenny definitely will not overlook Community. He wouldn't even discuss anything past this game with me Friday night, so I feel he'll have the kids focused on this game. Hopefully homecoming festivities won't interfere with the kids focus. That's always a concern.

Agree Amen.

 

I think Community will make this closer than people think. Last year with less than 20 players they were tied with Cascade at the half and led most of the game losing by 9. The defense has struggled some but their offense can score with anyone. Will be interesting to see the contrast in styles. Would be worth the ticket price to see the game. Should be competitive.

It takes a few years to get a football program going especially if your school and community have always been focused on basketball and baseball. Community's football program has come a long way in the few short years they have been operating. This year’s team is the best one so far and they have performed well on the field. The one thing lacking is community support... and I don't mean parent or school support that is certainly there. I’m talking about the mindset of the community. The Unionville folks just haven't had enough time to really get excited about football. It takes years for that to happen and it will happen after a generation of two of players graduate and raise a family and their kids start playing.

 

Having said all this... Cascade wins this one and will continue to denominate the series for several years... but the days will come that Community will be just as much a force to reckon with as they are now in other sports.

    • Eagleville hosting shows laziness on the part of the TSSAA and a complete disregard for the appearance of impartiality. Absolutely nothing against EHS. Its not their fault TSSAA is lazy.    I understand EHS staff work the games at Eagleville, and they don’t want to miss the EHS games. However this isn’t rocket science. It would take less than 1 hour to cross-train EHS and RHS volunteers at the opposite sites. If Eagleville (or any host)  makes the tournament, flip their game site and have the volunteers flip sites for the days their school plays at the opposite site. Magically the school’s fans would be present to watch the their kids play and the kids at least lose some familiarity and home field advantage.  It takes almost no effort and is a ~15 minute extra drive.    
    • We feel the pain!
    • Jason Lambert should be the only choice for the Baseball coaching position. 
    • From the stats I found online it looks like Gabe Eddington- .484, 44 total hits, 43 runs scored and 42 stolen bases.Meanwhile, on the mound, the Austin Peay commit had a record of 8-2, while compiling 50 innings pitched with an ERA of 1.82. Carson Parrott - 7-0 overall as a starting pitcher with a 1.41 ERA, 95 strikeouts and a save in 53 and 1/3 innings pitched. Parrott hit .392 with 3 home runs, 21 RBIs with a .566 OBP and .716 SLG. Jaxon Walker - .454, 53 hits, 38 RBI’s, 9 HRs.   Not saying the other three aren’t deserving but Quillen had better BA than all three and was just as dominate pitching.  Like I said I don’t know how you leave off the 3a Baseball player of the year last year when he put up better numbers.  I know Greeneville’s Coach wasn’t happy about it saying “I don’t give a s*** what anybody else says. That kid is the best player in Tennessee, and everybody else on our team rises to his level“.  I’m sure winning another State Championship as a junior is more important to Carson than the individual award, it’s just a head scratcher to not be nominated
