Wasn't umpires fault kid got caught up in the celebration too quick. He didn't touch the bag. Me personally Greenback won the game following the rules of baseball but I would always look at it as a gift.

Dude......that butt is pretty sore isn't it?

Congratulations from the TCA family.  Really fine ball team and extremely well coached!  Thoroughly enjoyed watching your pitcher yesterday.  Wish all the Greenback seniors the very best in life.  What a ballgame!!!

I feel for the TCA kid who didn't run through 1st base and it cost them the gold ball....but I have heard all season how horrible the TCA players and fans were...players bad language and the parents even worse...and it's a "Christian" school....good luck in D2,,,,,

 I feel for the kid no doubt. I honestly don't know the TCA baseballl world to comment. Basketball acts good. Good luck to them moving forward. Should have decent chances to win state in girls basketball and baseballl.

Easy to dog pile on a situation. I am Sure your schools kids all walk the straight line and polish their halos daily. It’s easy to throw the rock at the school which Christian in the name. And hide the hand. As if they kids and parents are to be perfect at a Christian school. Please. I will Tell you this. I am A Christian and I fall Short of the glory of God daily But i know God loves me and forgives me in this sinful world. Please tell me  your school so I can Send my youngest son to school there. I would Love to see him in that perfect fruitful location. This forum is about sports and sports causes emotions that come out. Not always good. And not always bad. So save the rock throwing and back biting for your Sunday school class.

Take this for what it's worth, because I haven't been to a TCA game in person for two seasons. TCA and "my" school have met in the field and on the court for decades, and I have never witnessed nor heard from their kids, or been told by our kids anything other than first class sportsmanship from everyone associated with their school. That includes dozens (conservative estimate) of events.

You pick... gate and eats on me.

  I liked your response... no denial, no excuses. Not being affiliated, I have no reservations about being skeptical about those rumors. TCA has shown us humility when winning big,  class when losing some tough ones, and has never (students, fans, or faculty) acted other than gracious. There's no program that I hold in a higher regard out there... period.

I was at the game yesterday.  I don’t have a kid playing by the way.  When the aforementioned play happened nobody argued the call.  The coaches didn’t argue, the fans didn’t argue and the players didn’t argue. Your school,Gibson County, has great kids and coaches.  I know a lot them are very active in church.  When they make a mistake do you look at them and say, “he goes to such and such Baptist church, can you believe he said or did that”?   It’s no different when you attend a Christian school.  Yes, Bullseye is on our backs and we need to strive to a higher standard but inevitably we will fail at one time or another.  Do you think players read CoachT?  Sure they do.  How would you feel if your son was the one who didn’t touch first base?  No need to make the comment that “he cost them the gold ball”!!  What about the 5 errors we made?  Greenback didn’t have a single earned run.  You could easily argue that those errors cost the game.  While I can see your point on that play there is no reason to single out a kid publicly.  Jackson Sun usually takes care of that unfortunately!!  TCA had an amazing season!  Best team in school history. We need to encourage the kids to dwell on the good memories and move past the bad ones.
