Who are the contenders/favorites or can we even decide that after a year off? 

First off I’m so thankful we are finally back on the diamond! I know baseball is never a huge topic on the T but I thought I’d give it a shot at getting some chatter going! I really know nothing about anyone other than Lake Co?
 

Lake Co is pretty good outta the west off to a 5-0 start! JT Morgan has 5 HR already with 3 in the first game with 7 RBI! Really good pitching with Morgan the Wilson twins Johnson and Gordon! I really feel like they could have won it all last year with deep pitching but we will never know!

North Greene out of upper East TN will be really tough once the basketball kids get into baseball mode. Two new transfers from a Class AAA program will help them reach the state tournament. They have 5 quality arms which is a major advantage in any division let alone Single A. 

Thanks for commenting! Trying to up the baseball talk on here! 5 arms for single A is a blessing! We are about the same! Early on we got a kid in 5 games with 5 HR and 17 RBIs (he was an all state in football). Anyone else let’s talk...

Only problem with the Falcons so far is the competition they’ve played. Greenfield, North Side, and I believe Bradford are not good teams. Gibson County and Peabody will be in the hunt for Single A, along with McKenzie and Huntingdon.

Totally agree! Gibson Co is always good...saw where they beat Dyersburg yesterday

I like MTCS and Eagleville from the boro.

MTCS has 5 commits, 2021 LHP/OF James McCracken (Tennessee Commit), 2021 RHP/OF Jonathan Burns (Trevecca Commit), 2021 RHP Brock Culpepper(Carson Newman Commit; Tommy John Surgery), 2021 3B/RHP Blayne Highfill (Freed Hardeman Commit), and 2022 RHP/3B Adam Jamison (MTSU Commit).  One is going to have tommy john soon though.  But still 4 strong arms can do a lot for the program.  They also swing the bat well.  Currently 6-0.

Eagleville has two commits, 2021 RHP Logan Kimberlin (Tennessee Commit) and 2022 OF/LHP Nathan Brewer (MTSU Commit).  Have not really heard a lot about how they are doing.  But I have enjoyed watching the Brewer kid play.  Plays hard and plays the game right.  Lets see how the season goes!

Does MTCS play in the private or public division?

UC has one senior pitcher who can get really get people out, if they make plays behind him,  then a huge drop off after that. I'm not sure if they are young or not but they are very porous on defense and only have a couple of kids that hit very well. They will not be a test for LC after the lefty throws.

Should be a good couple days of games between these two!

    • We have 2 PG's that will be added to the lineup and another guard and all are athletic and can handle ball pressure. Gibson County beat Westview 4 times in 2024. Westview brought in a Miss Basketball Candidate from South Fulton last year and you want to say Gibson County has a mental hump against Westview. I tell you what you put her on Gibson County's squad and Westview would have had a mental hump. Here is a fact. They wouldn't have won it without her last year. Last I looked Gibson County has played with who we got on our campus. Let's see how Westview does this year with who they got on their campus. I do think they will be pretty good but I don't like shots being taken at my school especially from Westview. 
    • Smith County fans are delusional is they are wanting to get rid of Dyer. If they think they are supposed to be some powerhouse of a football program that wins 10+ games every year they need a reality check. Never have been that good of a football program and probably never will. It’s too hard for a small rural place to be consistently good every single year 
    • If you’re talking about when they lost to Corbin HS out of Kentucky(4A school in KY) in 2017, they lost by 1 point and Corbin went 14-2 that year in Kentucky so to say they got “taken behind the woodshed by a mediocre out of state team” is a bit of a stretch. You act like Alcoa never loses at all. They lose games every year, granted mostly to Maryville but other teams have beaten them in the regular season. Alcoa just turns into another animal in the playoffs. Winning is a learned skill and it’s an advantage that Alcoa has over everyone when the postseason rolls around  
    • Carthage is returning QB will be his 3rd years starting and a Jr.He should be coming around.A soph tailback that got a lot of exp as a freshman.Biggest problem is the line.They have a couple of good athletes that will make plays but the rest still remain to be seen.Size is not a problem.New OC will be interesting.He is known to be a trickster but a genius in some peoples mind.Coach Dyer better get the ball rolling.I'm hearing a lot of eyes will be on him this year.GO OWLS
    • If Alcoa keeps winning titles after moving to 4a it makes the whole state look weak.  Havent they won 10 in a row or something.  My god how can a team win 10 in a row, and the 1 time they went and played a kentucky 3a team they got there ace's beat.  Some redbone coonhound team handled business on them, but they can constantly win 3a in tennessee.  I remember at the time looking up that redbone coonhound team that beat them, and found out that team is made fun of across the state of kentucky cause they havent won a title in like close to 50 years.  Think i seen they are now in 4a in kentucky, and they never won a title in the last 40-50 years no matter if they are 2a, 3a, or 4a but somehow was able to take alcoa behind the woodshed in the midst of there title run about 5-8 ,years ago dont remember the year.  Point is it looks bad when a team gets there hind end whooped like a 3 legged rented mule to a mediocre out of state team the 1 time they play them, but can dominate the whole state in 3a for over a decade.  Someone has to start beating them.
