Probably a good choice. Beech and Central made sense as far as making Powell a better football team, but I’m not sure they could find that type of opponent or even should at this point. Rest is a good thing. 

Agreed. Let's just hope the Campbell County game doesn't get cancelled on 10/2, because the last thing they need before the West game is another unexpected week off. They've got plenty to work on, and they've definitely got some kids that need more live reps.

Not a whole lot of quality options this week, outside of South Pitt and Gatlinburg-Pittman. I wonder if Powell will try to pick up a local opponent for 10/16 instead. Could add Carter or Clinton (re-schedule).

Clinton is a no go.  They do not want to play Powell.  Straight forfeit.  They will not make up that game, so they will need another team to play 10/16.  I don't think they are going to add anyone this week, and use this week as there by week instead of the scheduled by week of 10/16.  They will look to have a game on 10/16 and that gives them more time to find an opponent.

Powell has nothing to prove unless Maryville/Alcoa/Catholic open up. 

An off week is more beneficial than lining up an easy win and risking an injury with West in a few weeks. 

thats what im saying. I would pay high dollars to see Alcoa and Powell play. 2 different styles. Powell is explosive and Alcoa is shut you down. Would be interesting

    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
