My Take On The State Championships

1A: It was a perfect start for Greenback jumping out to a 13-0 lead. Dresden was very dynamic offensively and once they got it going there was no way they were going to lose at this level of play.

 

2A: Trezevant was the better team and despite the fact that they continued to make things harder on themselves with foolish penalties they were able to overcome Marion Co. late (the injuries took a lot out of the late in the game).

 

3A: Alcoa jumped out to a lead early and Liberty put forth a great effort at the end of the first half/beginning of the second half. In the end though Alcoa just continues to prove they own this class.

 

4A: Memphis East was dominant in a surprising effort to me. Knoxville Central could not get anything whatsoever going offensively and in the end it was Memphis East who took their will and blew it open.

 

5A: Independence jumped up by 28 and it appeared to be headed toward a 35 point lead going into halftime. A mistake followed by a score before the intermission gave life to Farragut and in the second half they capitalized on countless Independence mistakes and cashed them all in for back breaking scores and completed one of the best comebacks in state history.

 

6A: Oakland had a promising start thanks to field position and silly mistakes. They built a 9-0 lead and it appeared for 3+ quarters like they would cruise to a victory. In the end Whitehaven showed tremendous heart and got off the deck and rallied to win a real defensive battle.

That sounds good to me  but you left out one state championship game...

 

Class What Should Have Been: The Irish of Knoxville Catholic jumped out to a 24 - 10 lead at halftime against a sluggish Oak Ridge squad The Wildcats got scores from Tee Higgins and Jordan Graham to tie it up but Catholic got four TDs from Amari Rogers to cruse to victory.

    • Why? Low pay. Low budget thanks to the Rotary milking the programs revenue. Foul smell. There are other negative things... Positives: the players and being toward the top of the classification numbers wise.
    • What we have here is an influx of outsiders raining down on the town of Maryville like a swarm of locust trying to change our culture into the same crap they moved away from. I have no issues with anyone coming here but don't bring your politics with you. Most people around here never pay attention to the elections and keep letting the same ole rats and vermin right back in the back door and wonder why things are like they are. The problem at Maryville High is mainly due to letting outsiders get a foothold on control and shove their agenda down everyone's throat. Anyone that leaves there or let's say ranoff are replaced with an outsider with the same mindset. Eventually Maryville High will never be the same as it once was which I'm beginning to believe already but it's only chance of survival are to recruit people that will get in there and reverse the damage that has already happened.

    • Athletics is just a piece. It can help them academically, socially and add confidence. I was still 17 when I finished my first quarter at UT. I was the last to get my driver's license. It's not always just for athletics.
