Huntingdon was very fortunate to win that game. Greenfield led for most of the game and was up 7 with two minutes to play. Instead of killing some time, they took some ill-advised shots and Huntingdon,  being the good team they are, took full advantage (good coaching). The Swenson kid had a career night (according to some HHS fans) and even then Greenfield missed TWO lay-ups in the last five seconds of regulation AND missed the last shot of the first overtime. That game made Greenfield alot better b/c in the 2nd game, after leading the entire game, they closed it out strong. That loss was a good one b/c they've made adjustments and improved.

Vandychris, nobody can guarantee a gold ball for any district right now, there's lots of basketball left to be played by everyone, AND THEY'RE ALL HUNGRY!

Did you see the defensive number they put on Chynia Brooks at Perry County on Tuesday night? Held her to 8 and had a running clock in the 4th qtr. Summertown can play some defensive basketball for sure. For anyone thinking it is a done deal that district 7 is getting a gold ball hasnt done their homework. In 20 games, Summertown has had 8-9 different leading scorers and 2 of those came off the bench. They are deep and HUNGRY.

Write it down 6A the old (7A) will put both teams in the championship game. Pickett vs Clarkrange. I have no doubt Summertown will be a tough out but these two teams are just that good.

Don’t be fooled... Darby and Moore are 2 of the top 5 players in Single A basketball regardless of grade. One of the two SHOULD be up for Miss Basketball this year. You don’t have to believe me now, but once you see them in Murfreesboro, you’ll believe me then.

I know you to be a very good evaluator of talent so I am sure they are. You need to watch the two freshman twins for Clarkrange. They are special and you know I don’t throw that word around very much.  Who else is coming to Murfreesboro from over your way besides Summertown?

I’ve seen the twins, and they’re both very good. Good enough to help Clarkrange to a state championship.

From West TN, in my opinion, the two top teams are Greenfield and Huntingdon. But that’s not saying much. The Single A teams out here are pretty even, with the exception of Greenfield. I feel they’re a bit better than the rest of the teams out here. Gibson Co, Dresden, Gleason, Peabody, TCA, Middleton are teams that have a chance.

+2  wish I could have seen the two (Huntingdon and Greenfield) go at it.  Greenfield looked impressive tonight.  Moore and Darby may just be both finalists for Miss Basketball.  They are both the Real Deal!

GC,

I have seen ya'll play on several occasions, and if you can stay away from Greenfield till the finals, you could make it to the Boro as well.  IMO, Region 7 will have two teams in the Boro.... Greenfield and ?????

GC, I respect your opinion on girls basketball and totally agree with you. I have not seen the twins from Clark Range yet but I do believe Greenfield will have the best two players on the floor regardless of who they play this year. Both Tess (33 pts)  & Chloe (35 pts) have dominated good teams by themselves but the combination of them both is really awesome for a Class A team and whats really awesome is they are just sophomores.

It will be interesting to see how they matchup against the powers from (7A) I know it’s supposed to be 6A but I can’t wrap my head around that just yet. Pickett County has the best player in Class A in Pritchett in my opinion but Clarkrange has the two freshman twins along with a very good shooting guard in the Bush girl who is playing her best ball this year and two big post players.  Both of these teams have been to the state tournament the past two years and I look for both to be back this year as well.

The twins are very good, they cause a lot of problems on both sides of the ball. They do not appear to get tired very easily

    • Lol! I was being a bit facetious. 
    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year.
