Copper Basin basketball

I have been following single A basketball very closely this season, especially in the Chattanooga area, Boyd Buchanan may have one of their best teams ever and CSAS is once again very good. The one team I have watched play a few times that I believe is very good that I am not hearing anyone talk about is Copper Basin. Copper Basin is 8-3 at the Christmas break, their best start in two decades with two wins over Fannin County, a school of over 1,000 kids, and a very impressive 19 point win over Grace Academy. Basin is 2-1 in district 5A, and a fun team to watch. Their coach, Coach Kidd has turned this program around. I think Basin can finish in the top three in district 5A and possibly make some noise in the District and Region tournaments.

CSAS is one of Copper Basins losses. They were tied at halftime and I think they lost by nine. They play Boyd Tuesday January 14th.

CSAS won 81-64. Got up double digits early. Let their foot off the gas and it was tied at half. Dominated the second half after a few adjustments. Copper Basin is definitely improved especially at home. Thats's a tough place to play. They have a couple shooters and a tough PG.

Sorry on the mix up on the score. I knew it was tied at half, and I thought it was about nine. Just spoke to a former player and he said CSAS score the first 12 points of the second half, besides that it was very competitive game. By the way I have never known Coach Dragoo to ever let off the gas lol.

I haven't been on here in a while and I really never get on the bball forum, usually just football. I went to Copper Basin, and I have had the opportunity to watch this team a few times this season. This is the best basketball team I've seen at the school ever. I'm only 20 though. Kidd has done a remarkable job sticking with the school and turning this program around. The school has really never had any success at basketball. It is definitely nice to see. I'm hoping to catch the game at Grace next Tuesday. Wanted to go to Boyd tonight but had to work. Anybody know who won that game? And oh yeah the Copper Basin Hiwassee Dam rivalry is great in both basketball And baseball. Fun to play in

    • Just think it could be West, Alcoa, plus one more. Could doesn’t mean it will 
    • It’s a small town and they are in the same school system. People talk and can pull up records on their personal devices. 
    • Sorry Barn. I wasn’t specific enough. It seems I’m always protecting the principal at 825. My interactions with her have been extremely positive, but very limited. With all the other stories being told, I’m confident there are other sides I am not aware of. Regardless, there are lots of decent people earning good checks up there. Maybe too good, which explains why no one is willing to speak up. My beef is with the poor communication among the athletic programs and with the administration. Seven years ago the poor communication led to my son missing graduation due to a sporting event that was planned months before. I chalked it up to the system being totally shocked that the baseball team made it out of their district, and our then AD was a football coach. Maybe they were surprised and did not plan appropriately. That was more palatable than they just didn’t give a crap. Déjà vu, seven years later, same thing. Different administration, but same result.  Maybe in seven more years, it will actually be “about the kids”. They should do better.
