Appreciate the kind words. Gallatin’s wave yard is certainly no slouch. In addition to the fans I love the setting  with it being off campus and no track. Springfield’s old stadium had a similar unique feel to it. Our game at Gallatin in ‘16 was beyond memorable. I Look forward to returning one day. A playoff game would be awesome. 

Very true on location. We’ve been on an island for as long as I can remember. It’s actually not as bad as it used to be. Back in the 90s our region included Glencliff, Hillsboro, and Hunters Lane in addition to the (then) 3 Clarksville schools. 

As for traditional rivalries, the few ones we did have (Dickson County and JCM) are either literally or essentially dead. 

The city of Clarksville will forever be a mystery to me. I generally respect Northeast and CHS, as they’re usually at least decent, but that city should be producing 1 or 2 5A powers each year with the talent it has.

Well hopefully we took one of the better coaches in Clarksville.  Watson has breathed some new life in the program so far.  He seems to be a hard worker and has surrounded himself with what appears to be a good staff.    

I never understood letting that HC/DC game die out.  Back in the 80’s and 90’s that game was a huge rivalry and decided playoff seeding.   

I think that playoff game will happen eventually.  Gallatin and Henry Co will play again!

If you put out a good product, they will come. Henry County High School has filled their stands for the last 10-12 years off of great teams and great coaches. They also have filled your stands with great fans in the away games, most of the time having more fans than the home team. Great teams , great fan base.

True !
