Christian Bros Takes Blackhorse

CBHS took the annual Blackhorse team title by outpacing Brother Martin 308 to 299.5 at Houston yesterday.  Arlington (201) and Blackman (191)  rounded out the top 4 but they were a distant 3rd and 4th as evidenced by the point totals.  The Brothers did it on the strength of 4 champions (Bowers-132, Doty-182, Brackett-195, and Walthall-220) as well as 4 other wrestlers battling back to win their consolation brackets (Anthony-126, Brooks-145, Hodge-152, Healy-hwt).  Dayne Dalrymple-106 made it into the finals but could not quite close it out.  This is a really well rounded team with depth and top-end wrestlers at several weights.  They are going to be the devil to beat in a dual.

Nice to see CBHS finally get back on top at Black Horse... Brother Martin always brings a very tough team.  That was a heck of a team race and they needed some help from other teams to knock off the BM kids here and there.

I am excited to see what CBHS can do this year, especially as the line-up shakes out at a few weights and everyone gets into mid-season form.

So glad to see Bowers wrestling for the Bros. He will definitely be a great addition to a CBHS state championship team this year. I am very happy (assuming) Bower's could get the approval of TSSAA and check these rules off: In order for a transfer student with an athletic record to be eligible at another school there must be a bona fide change of residence by the athlete’s parents; All transfer students must be approved by the Executive Director of TSSAA before participating in any game or contest. Love seeing kids like this pursuing what they love, even at the extent of changing schools, so they can become a top wrestler in the country.

fooseball, what happened to your post?

 

Certainly Bowers and his parents moved to Memphis.  

 

I guess one of the moderators deleted because they know it’s the truth. The tssaa should be ashamed of themselves. Everybody knows, and for them to still not clear Wysong but clear Bowers is complete bs. Everybody knows that Bowers was coached by Harrison last summer in North Carolina at flight time duels. It was all over the internet for God’s sake.

Didn't the wrestler and his parents move.  Is that not enough to make him eligible if the parents change residence?  I did read an article where TSSAA would not let 2 transfer become eligible for one of the Memphis basketball teams with one of the players transferring from Nashville because they played for the coach in the summer.

Anybody have any knowledge of the rule?

He was coached in "Freestyle". TSSAA sees that as a different sport.

    • 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. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
