It's all about speed. It's very hard to beat a team that's much faster than you are! Summertown is better coached but they are slow! Fuller #24 is faster than Alvin Kamara. Huntingdon is not the best team in the state but they are I think the most talented. They didn't play well tonight but were talented enough to pull it out.

Stown didn’t look better coached tonight.  Looked like Huntingdon was ready. Don’t know he might be a better coach but he didn’t show up tonight if he is.

Huntington out rebounded S-town on both ends badly.  Also shot 16 foul shots to S-towns 2.  Would love to see this game again in 9 days

I think I recall myself saying that Huntingdon wins a lot of their games simply because they’re bigger and just out rebound the other team.... seems it happened.

Zebra, hope you had safe travels back across the river from Lawrenceburg....

Summertown was the bigger team. Our post players got pushed around the few times the ball got down low. Huntingdon was faster and out hustled Summertown. That was the difference 

Summertown definitely got out hustled in the first quarter.  But if you think Summertown is 'bigger' in stature (not number of players), you weren't in Lawrenceburg last night.  Lawrenceburg, TN that is.

Your post players were 2x as big as our 125 lb 6' center and she dominated. Guess we see things a little different

Totally agree and they dominated us on the boards and put backs!  They deserved that win last night.   Hope they play again in 8 days!

Was a big honor for the Fillies to win the 6a regional. We have a lot of respect for the ball y'all play across the river. To win 6a is huge plus for our program.

Size was not the issue.  You have to pressure Huntingdon and keep them off the boards.  Summertown did not do that in the first quarter and let Huntingdon push the ball and get into their half court offense.  Huntingdon is very athletic and quick.  They were able to hold on to the lead they built in the first quarter.  Summertown's defense started to play more of their type of defense in late second quarter.  They were able to cut in the lead and have some opportunities for the win, but Huntingdon was good enough to hold on and win.   It was a good game to watch and both will be in the state next week.

    • I think Gordonsville wins the region but comes up short vs south pitt in Rd3  
    • Who’s going to lead the pirates offense this year?
    • Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.
    • I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.
    • Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.
