I thought we had a good day.  Like GIjoe said, we spread the ball around very well.  Martin and Mitchell had good days, actually Mitchell had a great day.  I like the speed we present on defense.  If our line play can hold up, we should have a good year there.  We are young and we did some young team things this morning (too many blown coverages), but those can be fixed in the next 3 weeks.  Looking forward to the Heritage scrimmage on the 28th.

Who did we play and how did we do against each team?

We played everyone and mixed the personnel up a lot.  Qbs were Stewart, Booker, Reedy and the new transfer.  Stewart looked the best passing which you should expect from your returning starter.  Main receivers were Martin, Mitchell, Pendergrass and Replogle, but the whole group played.  Running backs were Graham, Simpson, Thompson and Romano.  

We played Heritage first and pretty much had our way with them.  We moved the ball very well and defended great.

Next was Alcoa.  Alcoa was impressive as they should rule 3A this year.  Pendergrass did well defending their big receiver, Kellog.  Again, we moved the ball well against them.

Bearden.  They had the best passing attack of all our opponents.  They moved the ball well and there QB did a good job of locating the open man.  Fortunately for us, their defense was not as good, so we were able to move the ball.  

At the end of the morning, we played Webb.  It was not a strong effort on our part at the beginning.  Towards the end of the scrimmage we tightened up.  Webb looked better than last year.

Just read the daily wipe called the Knoxville News-Sentinal and discovered they didn't cover the 7 on 7 at Maryville at all. Another reason to cancel my subscription. Seems they don't do much for high school sports anymore.

I saw one of their reporters talking to Coach Hunt and other coaches. I guess it didn't merit a story in the paper.

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
