For the record, I believe COVID losses and wins should only matter for the region games since those are what decide the playoff seedings and whatnot.  Since Boone canceled, I guess D-B gets a COVID win, so the Tribe are on the good side of that, but don't think it's right for Boone to get an 'L' on their record either for a game that doesn't mean anything playoff wise.

If I remember correctly Clark benched Adonis Johnson at the start of the 4th quarter and started passing almost every play. In a down pour with about 6" of water standing on the field. For those that

No I absolutely agree.  It's odd that when other teams in Sullivan County had one case, they shut the programs down.  DB has, from what I heard, multiple cases yet it wasn't shut down.  If the JV kids

I'll say this.Most of us have windows in our homes. I wouldn't throw to many rocks until we have all the facts .

So under the rules, this is a non region no contest win for DB.

I'm not trying to stir the pot but I guess fans are a little out of the loop.  I have heard it was a JV football player, that's fine, are we saying the JV kids have no contact with the varsity?  I know I have dealt with smaller schools and not the big DB, but we are saying we have an outbreak amongst only the JV players and they have no contact with the varsity?  I didn't know that Kingsport had enough kids so that freshmen, jv, and varsity were all spread out so much that they had enough for their own teams and they were away from one another.  That's a ton of kids.  I don't blame Boone for cancelling, it is a non-region game and they have the rest of the way with conference games.

They don't, its a no contest I believe.  DB gets the win Boone gets nothing except their final record will only have 9 games on it.

Gotcha.  Well, let's hope the Jeff County game next week doesn't get canceled too.  Don't want to see a region game get forfeited against a winless team who has no chance beating the Tribe on the field.

No I absolutely agree.  It's odd that when other teams in Sullivan County had one case, they shut the programs down.  DB has, from what I heard, multiple cases yet it wasn't shut down.  If the JV kids who got it were separated then that is fine and good, but from the outside looking in it just seems not likely that those kids haven't been around one another.  On paper at least.  I was hoping this game would happen.

I’m a DB fan and I’m with you. It just isn’t a good look for DB to have the visiting team cancel the game because they are trying to protect their players from the home teams players.

The Sullivan County Health Department was apparently involved. They have the legal authority to shut the game, football program,  and the whole school down if they deemed there was risk. THEY did the tracking down, not DB non-health field professionals. They do the quaranteening.  It would be on THEM.  So this talk of it looking bad for DB is just that - talk. Guaranteed- the health dept gave the green light.

      I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.

      Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?

      Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
