are you thinking about their senior pitcher? She is not the one I am thinking about. They have a junior pitcher that can be dominant and a freshman pitcher that will be dominate as she matures. I have seen both kids play during the summer and both can be very dynamic. Waverly has a good pitcher as well, I have seen her in the summer as well.

I was referring to the JR. She can dominate a lot of the teams in the district, but could see some

struggles with the top teams, like a Waverly, or she might dominate them too. High school kids,

you just never know. That freshman pitcher could develop into a shut down, other team feels

hopeless, type pitcher. She has some attitude problems on the field. She can get frustrated

easily and loses all her control. Hopefully she gains some maturity over the next 4 years. She

can be a great one, like Brooklin Lee. Only time will tell.

you are right the Waverly / Creekwood game could be very interesting. I may have to come out of Rutherford County to see that one, 2 good pitchers. I saw them dual last year and Waverly won 2-1 but the CW pitcher threw a 2 hitter at them and I know that she beat them several times as a freshman and won a game a the state that year. I have seen CW several times this year at a Rutherford County playday where they beat Smyrna and she completely dominated a really good Smyrna team with double digit strikeouts in 4 innings and at the Commando against Beech (double digit strikeouts in 4 innings) and Clarksville NE (2 hitter in the rain). I have kept up with both of the CW pitchers from their time with the Firebirds organanization and both will end up pitching D1 college ball if they keep improving.I haven't seen Waverly around much so I am not sure what they have surrounding their really good pitcher but the CW team's young players will grow up very quickly. CW freshman pitcher is already holding her own but you are right she has a lot of growth ahead to be dominant.

Looks like Creek Wood's freshman has, for the most part, lived up to the hype. Waverly got to her in their last meeting. She gets a shot at redemption tomorrow at Waverly. I heard the senior pitcher quit during the season. I hate that. I have no idea what the circumstances were, just hate to see young folks lose their passion for the game and lose the fun and love.

First off it was a great game. Yes she got the win but you can't say she out pitched the heritage pitcher. She had a perfect game through 6 and Heritage had several base runners and hits in every inning. They just couldn't get one across the plate.

Creek Woods Jr pitcher shut out Page for trip to region championship where she again shut out Waverly for the Regional Championship and then out pitched and shut out White House Heritage for a trip to State. Senior pitcher quit before season really started. Team is made up of 1 senior 3rd baseman,jr pitcher and the rest are sophomores and freshmen.

I agree about Creek Wood. I don't think that pitcher will be a shut down/dominate type. She will with some teams, but will struggle with the better hitting teams. I think they take the district, but they won't dominate.

2 shutouts versus Waverly

shut out Page

shutout White House Heritage

All in a 2 week period, speaks for itself

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
