How do they determine the seeding for the state tournament?

There is no seeding for the state tournament. The only rule for the draw is that if two teams from the same region qualify they will be put on opposite sides of the bracket.

 

"The eight winners of the sectional games shall advance to the central tournament site. The Board of Control shall make the draw for play at the central tournament site. The draw will be made such that if two teams from the same region qualify for the state, they will be drawn to opposite brackets." Section III, D

It is disappointing that TSSAA moved the start times for the championship games on Friday to earlier times (1:30 and 4:00).  I think the last few years the A/AA championship game was at 4:00.  The Division II games are at 4:30 and 7:00 on Thursday.

so does anybody know if there are places to sit at the soccer fields or do fans need to bring chairs?

Fields 2,3,4 have limited bleacher seating, approximately enough for around 50 people. I am not sure about field 10. So I would encourage bringing a chair to the fields. The championship/stadium field has plenty of seating for fans.

There are still some volunteer spots open for the Soccer Games beginning tomorrow. If you volunteer you gain free admission to the state tournament. There are a few adult positions still available and ball boys/girls still needed. You get to pick where you want to work from what is still available.

 

If you have interest, please email me and I'll direct you to the volunteer link:

Chattanooga Teams, (Chatt. Christian, Boyd B. and Signal) what can you tell me about Murf. Central Magnet.  All three of you played them and they seem to be under the radar and playing well.

They play a pretty game except for the flops.  Extremely talented midfield builds the offensive attacks with great passing.  We countered by passing long to our forwards and keeping their mids out of the game as much as possible.  Keep a man on #11, great foot skills, unfortunately, he flops like a European pro.  #3 has great skill up front as well.  Good luck to all.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
