Trezvant beats Ensworth

[gcapride]

A city school in middle of Memphis has no business playing these small rural schools..

They do if their enrollment #'s are in the same classification as the small rural school. You both have the same # of kids roaming the halls to field your teams.

Keep lobbying old timer. You keep talking about big city schools, open zoned schools, private schools etc. Let's just give out participation "State Championship" trophies and rings to every school that tee's it up in August. Broken record dude.

 

Great work Trezevant. You beat a really good powerhouse team, regardless if they are down or not. Good luck the rest of the season.

They won't need luck Pride, just don't need any bad luck.

Small City school UC played Memphis Mitchell.  Trezevant was asked to play UC but they elected not to play us this year.

It wasn't because they were afraid,if that were the case. they wouldn;t have the schedule that they chose.

From what I have read they were a 3A school playing up in 4A! Apparently no one wants to deal with CPA & Alcoa! When the new #'s came out they were low enough to be in 2A!

If they didn't have 10 fumbles they should have won the state

Exactly. Talked to some of the Memphis posters about this. Apparently Trez was 3A enrollment for a while but had chosen to play up in 4A. I was told it was because they had some rivals there and it made scheduling easier for them. This time enrollment dropped just a little for them to be in 2A and that where they chose to stay. No foul play here. Just bad luck for a lot of other 2A schools.

don't get me wrong here, I think maybe aville or whoever in west can play with them on a flawless night. however I don't think the tssaa should allow a school to drop 2 classes, to the lay person it seems fishy. I know they may have really been 3a and played up in 4a, and if so I don't really think schools should have a say in playing up. they cant choose to play down so why allow anyone to play up. put them where they belong and no one will question the big 2 class drops in 1 season. to me if they chose to play up from 3a to 4, then they should at least have to play up from 2a to 3 for one classification cycle. all the best to them and I hope aville plays good enough to get a chance at them in the semis, to be the best you got to beat the best.

So Penalize a team for playing in their correct classification? How would that make since? Playing up is not an advantage because the schools you play against have more students to pull from were playing down would mean your school could pull from more students. I really dont think you thought your post out
