I agree that could possibly have been a game winner for Riverdale if that pass was made the second game was close until second half and Blackman left no doubt in that game as they played very agressive defense but with all that in the past I expect another great and possibly close game and if I were a betting man I wouldn't put money on this one it's just to close to call. I can't wait to watch both games because Oakland and Smyrna should also be a great game they both have alot of young talent which is great for the future of 7AAA.

It will be a great game tomorrow.  Riverdale has been up on Blackman in both games by 11 points and could not put them away.  The first game, Blackman was down by 11 when Riverdale post Deja Jones broke her hand.  The second meeting, Riverdale got up by 11 pts but they did not have the services of senior Hannah Pendergrass, as she was out with a leg injury.  Hannah hit 4 3pters on Columbia in the Regional game Friday night.  She hit over 70 3pters her sophomore season alone, and is a 1500 pt scorer.  Senior post Deja Jones has also hit 1500 pts in her career, and led the mid state in scoring last year.  She has been hampered with injuries most of this year tho, and seen limited playing time.  When in, Deja shows flashes of what she can do.  I believe BOTH will play at the next level.  Senior Pt Guard Shanique Heard may as well.  Riverdale has not been real healthy since January....but they are getting healthier.  I give full kudos for Blackman not folding both times they have gotten down by 11 pts.  This game is going to be a barn burner. Not to take anything away from it, but this game will probably be better than the state championship.  It is really too bad these two teams have to meet on one side of the bracket in just the Regionals.

This entire section has been about Region 4. Heads up people Region 2 will be sending 2 teams to the dance and they are loaded with talent. Any of more than 6 stems could show up. They not only have talent, they are hungry.

So go ahead and keep looking over the other teams, they appreciate it.

If blackman doesn't get beat by Riverdale, they will win state easy

Well tonight is the Sectionals and we will have the ELITE EIGHT headed the Murfreesboro.

 

it is too bad 2 of the Top 10 teams were in the same bracket in 4-AAA but thats what happens when you have upsets in the Districts. Hence Rkverdale and Columbjs were both upset.

 

I see Morristown West and Farragut coming out of East Tennessed.

 

I see Blackman and Oakland coming out of the Mid-East. I think the Bradley vs Oak, and game could go either way and should be the best game of the night.

 

I see Mt. Juliet and Overton out of the Midstate. I give Overton a slight edge playing at home.

 

I am taking Ridgeway and Dyer County to both go on the road and win their contests.

 

No doubt Blackman is the favorite and should be. If Mt. Juliet can get good guard play they can be a load with their strong inside game. I would say MJ has the biggest front line that will be in the tournament. Would be a great matchup in the finals. Two contrasting styles. MJ height againt Blackman's athleticism.

 

The blind draw will be Sunday afternoon. Looking forward to some awesome matchups.

Will be interesting if anybody tries to copy Oakland's gameplan. Lady Patriots were successful in dictating tempo and had their chances to upset Blackman

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • 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.
