Well it's almost that time. With CAK and Catholic moving on after this year I'm interested to see how fans of the teams think the season will go. CAK, in my opinion is the team to beat. My predictions:
1) CAK: three time district tournament champion, the returning district MVP in Hunter Reynolds and one of the best coaches in the Knoxville area in Coach Wells.
2) Catholic: returns their top 6 scorers from last season.
3) Alcoa: long, athletic, shoots the three ball could very well win the district.
4) Scott County: Billy Hall is a scorer team plays hard however another new coach for the Highlanders.
5) Kingston: Coach Naramore always has his team ready and they play hard. Not sure what Kingston has returning.

Irish chances certainly improved with the return of Brock Jancek. He was playing as well as anyone at the end of the year and has grown some more. I think Luke and Hunter are about dead even but they play different styles. It will take a little bit for CAK, Catholic and Alcoa to get the football players up to speed. Scott will have a new coach which may be a X factor. Kingston will battle but doesn't have the horses.

This was a topic of conversation this morning but the Catholic basketball program has competed in Division I (A, AA, and AAA) and Division II.  There's today trivia information for the day now back to hoops.  I was informed that Cole Smith had surgery on his shoulder (sustained an injury in game last week).  Hopefully it's nothing that will keep him out long.  He's an amazing athlete and even better person.

    • 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. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • 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.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
