Levy scored, but the difference in the game to me was Maynard, yes she shot 3-11 from three, but those threes swung the momentum of the game. And SS got out-rebounded and had 2 stretches of 3 minutes in the 3rd and 4th quarters where they didn't score. Can't do that against a team like Upperman. But great year for the Lady Hawks, and I expect them to be back next year with Miller, Transou, Taylor and Trice coming back.

South Side pressed very little and that is their game. Creating TO's and scoring transition points. Congrats to Upperman though. Good win.

Levy took the game over, I think the defining moment was in the 4th quarter when she broke the ankles on two of SS players and shot a layup.  That seemed to have deflated them somewhat.  Thought Upperman was the better all around team, but SS has nothing to be ashamed of.  They have a good squad and i like their inside post player she really wants to ball and can finish when she gets it!

I don't think South Side's lack of pressing was the difference in the game. The biggest issue was getting killed on the boards and the scoreless drought in the 4th quarter. Also, Levy stepped up and did enough to get the win. South Side competed with my pick to be state champions, Upperman. They have nothing to be ashamed of and have something to build off of for the years to come. South Side should be back in the years to come...

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
