I’m sure the home side will be filled but it’s not going to surprise me if the visiting side isn’t overflowing as well! Plenty of other fans and teams that would like to see Whitwell fall as well! Going to be a exciting night to say the least and finally some fall weather to go with it! Sure would like to have 70,67, 10,11 and 22 back for this game from last year!!! Those guys were lights out. The ones we have that are playing in there place are really good, but those ones I mentioned, they were a different breed!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportman Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Welcome to "The Hill" The vision of South Pittsburg High School is to advance student academic development and achievement. Each student must be challenged academically, graduate fully prepared for post-secondary learning opportunities and ready for the challenges of a career. About The School South Pittsburg High School South Pittsburg High School was constructed in 1924 in the 700 block of Elm Avenue, its current location. The school was operated by the city until 1932 when it was sold to Marion County. In 1938 South Pittsburg Elementary School, also on Elm Avenue, had to be constructed because of the heavy traffic that had been created when several small rural schools closed and combined with South Pittsburg City School. Grades seven through twelve were kept at the high school as it still is today. In 1965 the fourty-one year old original school was torn down except for the gymnasium which was built in 1949. In 2008 the fifty-nine year old gymnasium was replaced with the Brooks-Fuqua Gymnasium. In 1974 a career and technical education wing was constructed which today is used for career and technical education courses, computer labs, and a band room. South Pittsburg High School has a rich tradition in athletics as well, including five Class A state championships in football, and one in baseball. Several boys’ basketball teams have won district and region championships, and girls’ softball has won several district championships and had one appearance in the state tournament. South Pittsburg High School’s faculty, staff and student organizations partner with the South Pittsburg Cornbread Festival each year to prov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermind, I am way off on it. It was City until 1933 though. Edited October 11, 2018 by The Drunken Sailor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be off on that a little but I think it is correct. Were we the Warriors? If we were you'd think some of those Jasper people would like us more!!! LOL..

This was a few years ago that Vic told me that so there could have been a larger crowd since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratetom Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) The two best teams in the valley square off tomorrow night. Hoping for another Pirate victory but very proud of the Tigers too. I have lots of friends with kids at Whitwell whom I respect very much. No matter the outcome, we will see this matchup again in the 3rd round. Congrats to bothteams on an undefeated season to this point. Go Pirates Edited October 11, 2018 by piratetom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen some large crowds over the years and that one stands out to me also. The 2011 crowd that traveled to Gordonsville was impressive for an away game. I've only gotten to see a handful of games since 2014 but I try to make the big games and a playoff game or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trollin Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 I’ll be traveling to support Boldin and the Whitwell Tigers in this game since Waverly will be eating a cupcake tomorrow night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
