McKenzie vs. Westview 

The never ending saga in what has become an intense rivalry between Westview and McKenzie girls' soccer continued tonight in the Region 7A championship game at Bethel University. The Lady Chargers were leading 6-1 with a running clock and appeared to be well on their way to winning the region and hosting a sectional game on Saturday. The referees stopped the game with 3:01 remaining, suspended it, and walked off of the field following some controversy between a Westview player and one of the refs. The TSSAA will make its decision on who won the game Friday morning. The TSSAA will have to consult the rule book since the game was not suspended for lightning,or other natural reasons, player or coach ejections. The TSSAA may rule the game a forfeit on Westview since the controversy involved the Lady Chargers. Both head coaches, and principals of the two schools agreed that the game will not be continued. McKenzie's head coach even told Westview head coach Seth Coleman that as far as she is concerned, his team won the game fair and square. Even though the Lady Chargers were leading by five goals with three minutes remaining, they may have to travel to Memphis on Saturday to play a sectional game against Memphis East. If the TSSAA rules in favor of Westview, it will play Memphis Business College at home Saturday. Westview principal Jeromy Davidson will find out the TSSAA decision early Friday morning and pass it along to The Press, which will be posted here as soon as the information is available.

There has to be more to this besides a player and a ref not getting along. That is what "Red" cards are for. You just don't walk off the field as a group.

I have heard from a source very close to Westview it had to do with verbal misconduct on the part of a referee towards a Westview player. I won’t get more specific than that but the ref was completely in the wrong if what I was told was true. And I believe it is seeing as how tssaa ruled in favor of Westview.

    • The Girls Basketball team I am a part of played for a gold ball this season. One of the biggest differences in the sports is that there is no field prep/maintenance in basketball.   Our baseball is successful and play 30 games in the regular season as well. All of the teams dedicate A LOT of time in preparing for their next opponent. 
    • “facts” or better yet ‘opinions’ had been up for weeks/months. that’s not why the thread was deleted. get over yourself. 
    • Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say the have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented? 
    • Crazy how the thread just gets deleted when facts come out.
    • I understand I guess it depends on the school you are with and the time you want to put in.  It’s evident of the schools that don’t put in as much times.  I would say basketball players put in as much time as any sport in our school system and this is coming from a football town.  Bball is a longer season than other sports.
