Uneducated outsider guess - Cooper williams and eric yother gonna be very productive regionally in the lower weights, middles Lane, Rolston, Jessie surely are making a leap this year with all their ex

The fact that you feel the need to talk about how bad high school level athletes are is sad. I'm also not going to sit and try to convince you how good region 1 is. Quite frankly I don't care how good

I'm interested in seeing alot of the matches that could take place this season. Obviously not knowing where the guys from the Hill will be its hard to say some of these will happen.   Bynum(DC) vs N

So then Newcoach back to the Regional discussion how do you see things lining up? I just dont know much about the teams on your end of the region, but I suspect Jefferson is improving. Score aside last year I saw improvements among them and determined kids with I think a pretty decent coach

well in district 2 obviously Jeff co is kingpin. It will probably end up being Jeff, Mowest,Moeast, cocke co. Had the pleasure of watching west's practice today and they have a very good 45 pounder coming in too. Factor him in and that's another possible state qualifier.

 

Jefferson is not a team to play around with. A lot of talent. They are loaded top to bottom over there. Could they give the hill a run for that region title this year??

Ran into an old Jeff wrestler while eating at Blue Moose in PF (awesome restaurant) this summer, and he had told me that Coach Hollingshead was no longer the coach at Jefferson as of this summer. I do not personally know if this is true, but I hope it isn't, as he was doing great things with that program. They really seemed to be going in the right direction.

 

Anyone know if this is a true statement?

That is good to hear. In that case, I'm sure that Jefferson will put together another competitive team this year.

 

Speaking of Jefferson, a little college level update of our Region 1 boys:

 

I spoke with Tyler Johnson yesterday and he seems very confident about his chances of making the Newberry starting lineup this season. He will be filling a spot that fellow TN wrestler (Maryville) and DII All-American Blake Ridenour had held during Tyler's first two years with the program. Blake has now graduated, so Tyler Johnson is ready to fill his shoes. Newberry is a hard working team with great coaches. Knowing Tyler's work ethic and desire to win I am sure that he has improved tremendously over the last two seasons and I have high expectations for him this season!

 

Also, I was revisited my old college dorm rooms at King briefly yesterday to check in on Jon Boatman. He is settled in, has an easy first semester, and doesn't weigh much above 130. So 125 should be very doable this season.

 

Competing with Jon for a starting spot at 125 will be fellow Region One wrestler, Andrew Armstrong. Andrew went to Marion Military Institute in Alabama his freshman year and was a little disappointed in the lack of focus the wrestling team had since it was a club team. He is excited to be part of a DII program and will also have no problem making 125. He looked skinnier than he did his senior season.  

 

Josh Spangler will also be competing for King University, but will be commuting from home as it is only about 2 miles from his high school. I have not talked to Josh, so I am unaware of his plans as far as weight class, but I wanted to make sure not to leave him out in this update.  

 

It is great to see this many Region One kids choosing to continue their careers even if they were not able to accomplish their goals in high school. It is a rough road, but it is a great experience that opens many doors. I hope that all are able to make it through four years of the college sport with the lowest retention rate of all college athletics. That alone is a great feat!

 

Good luck to all our Region One wrestlers at the college level this season!

Not the toughest or deepest region in the state but always working and improving. Coaches and wrestlers keep up the hard work and keep getting better.

Greenville, and as usual,,, Science Hill with Mr "cat on the mat" Miller at the helm, with the Ol Price is Right still pushing them boys as well.

I'm actually curious as to what science hills line up looks like after losing Hudgins, Vaughn, and Bagley. I'm sure they will fill the spots easily but who ever steps up has big shoes to fill.

at the preseason Bristol Tourney this weekend I got there after the first round but I saw Lane SR Sci-hill who I think is in the 130's decide to let it go, and that was the best wrestling I have ever seen him do live.  Very good...  I heard he lost his first match, thus givien the choice to wake up - what I saw was that he did...  Also Eric Yother SR Sci-hill is a natural, shame he was a late starter but he is quite good again in the low middle weights, and Cooper Williams looked pretty good also in the low weight range at the Hill...  But your right Newcoach I am still out of the loop and wondering what the line-up top to bottom will look like... There are a few scattered in there that regionally are as close to automatic wins as you ever can be...  But there may be some gaps...

      Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      By Summit22 · Posted

      Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2.

      It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By BDURHAM · Posted

      Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
