Yeah having youth like y'all and us have you're going to take your lumps along the way, but if bodes very well for the future of both teams. I predict we will lose one of 2 games this weekend. Heck, we may lose both, but I am excited about this team. Only 1 senior (Ted Mitchell) on the whole team. Lots of things to be excited about. I'd love to play Alcoa again. Both teams have great traditions and that would be a great rivalry I think. I also wouldn't mind seeing us play in football one of these years.

I wouldn't mind squaring off on the gridiron either myself. I'm sure Joe Gaddis will want another shot at Rankin.

This year's Oak Ridge team should still make at LEAST the substate round IMO. Heck, y'all might go back to the Boro this year. I just don't see anyone else in Region 2-AAA that will stop you right now, unless I'm completely missing someone.

Even if y'all have a learning experience at D-B next weekend, it'll just make you better.

Sounds like a good game (I wasn't born yet LOL). That would have been the next-to-last or last season for our Hall of Fame coach Vernon Osborne. Coach Kirk told me he wants to get Oak Ridge back on t

That should be able to change next year. Catholic isn't playing Webb in basketball anymore so scheduling all district games in January could be realistic.

It never helps that Webb uses a different association. The situation was made worse given that on two of the calls, one official had a block, the other a charge and even worse several of the questionable calls were made the official that is a Catholic parent. OOPS I didn't think there were 8 charges but most were good calls given that we drive in out of control. Bottom line you shoot 12/51 you're not going to beat many people.

6 charges they called on catholic and the 2 catholic took that were called blocks.  The one that hurt was the BASELINE ref calling a block and the other "official" running in from half court calling it a charge.

Agreed! I always get mad when an official that wasn't anywhere near the play corrects the official that was standing right there.

I have no clue where Kingston gets their officials and have no desire to. 49 fouls were called tonight, talk about a long game. It also didn't help that we had 19 turnovers.

 

Nevertheless, Alcoa out-rebounded Kingston 38-26 and shot 50% from the floor en route to a 57-48 victory. We're 1-0 in district play, so I'll take it!!

 

Next up, a home game against Maryville tomorrow!

 

Go Alcoa, Amen!!!

Heartbreak City in A-town tonight. Maryville had us dead to all rights late in the game, then we hit a bunch of 3's in the 4th to tie it. Maryville then scored and Alcoa had a chance but couldn't convert. We fell just short 55-53.

 

Next up, Renasant Bank Christmas tournament at Maryville High School.

Alcoa is better than most of the teams in 4-AAA and obviously very even with the two best - Maryville and Bearden. I frankly don't think there is much difference between the best teams in AA and AAA ball in East Tennessee, except Oak Ridge is clear # 1 at the moment.

      Mairvul Footbawl 2024

      Understand the young thing.  I was one of those.  Barely 17 when I graduated from high school and started college.  But redshirting for athletic purposes isn't doing them any favors, in my opinion.  Life isn't always going to be fair.

      The Girls Basketball team I am a part of played for a gold ball this season. One of the biggest differences in the sports is that there is no field prep/maintenance in basketball.   Our baseball is successful and play 30 games in the regular season as well. All of the teams dedicate A LOT of time in preparing for their next opponent.

      New Rules

      By KidGloves · Posted

      Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say they have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented?
