Looks as though we will to put up with the same type of play all year. Against Perry Co. we  came out bombing the three pointers and wholesale substituting.  Rebounding was poor (except for Scott).  We are not playing as a team.  True, we won by 15, but it should have been 30. I think this team could be a good young team if they learn to play as a team.  But as long as we keep having the wholesale substitutions and keep taking the 2 for 27 percentage three point shots and do not rebound we will see the Summertown tradition of winning keep sliding back.

If the 2015 & 2016 classes can learn to play together Summertown will have a couple good seasons ahead of them the next 2 years. After that there will be a large drop off of talent and winning tradition. The effect of Coach Trotter leaving will really start showing. He had the ability to advance the skills of the kids with displine and a strong practice ethic. The up & coming kids coming through the Saturday league and the middle school programs are poorly coached. There is no effort to make this better and it will show over the next few years. There will be a down cycle for a few years. The middle school program has not had any leadership and has been neglected for years. Trotter had the ability to pull the kids out of it and set up summer teams to help. Coach Hunt may have that ability but it hasn't shown yet. Coach McGill seems to have taken over the girls program middle through highschool and is showing alot effort to make them better. Hunt needs to get involved with the boys program with the same effort.

Any way Perry County has a chance tomorrow night against Collinwood?

Will the games be played tonite? I'd like to see the PC/Cwood game but PC out of school today and the weather could get bad.  How about the Stown/WC game I think it is at Waynesboro?  I saw somewhere that the FH/Loretto game time had been moved up because of the weather.  If anyone happens to hear any word let it be known. 

 

I'm quessing:  Cwood over PC,  FH over Loretto & WC over Stown.

I could not agree more, any successful program starts with a commitment from the coach, which the Summertown Jr High boys program does not have. Evidenced by missing multiple practices and games, unacceptable, if you are not going to commit, get out. It is not fair to the kids playing, because they are not getting prepared for high school and like Alumni12A said, it is starting to show, starting with this years sophomore class and down. The sophomore class is really making improvements, but they did not come into high school where they should have, skill wise. A change is in need if this program wants to continue a winning tradition.

I have heard that Cwood/PC game has been cancelled for tonite.  Has anyone else heard that news.

I do know that Loretto and Frank Hughes was moved up an hour. 

 

But I have to disagree with the call of FH over Loretto.  Loretto has two starters that had one practice prior to the Richland game due to football and only four prior to the Lawrenceburg game.  granted Loretto has a lot of work to do but give Loretto some time and they have potential to be just fine.  They have good size and good players.  They just need time to play together and get back in the grove.

Well scratch the Loretto/FH game as well.  postponed due to weather.  Loretto tried to have it played last night but FH had a jr high game going on and would not reschedule.

There's only one bus in Clifton. lol        The Stown/WC game has been scratched too.

      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.

      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
