I am all in for Nolansville, and I agree about the East with the exception of Anderson County.  I have watched them for years, they play in a lot of tournaments I ref in or watch my nieces and they are always a tough out.  The other East teams have a good year or two, but Maryville or HV could not have made it out of Districts here.

2015 (GOODPASTURE when they were Single A) was the last time that a team lost on day one, played 3 games on day two to advance to the finals, then won it all. Will Nolensville have the legs to do it today? South Greene did it today in A!

No So Greene won their first match against Halls

Summertown defeated Hume Fogg maybe they should have been in 2A - just who gets hot at right time 

Yes and its crazy the whole double elimination thing...EXCEPT in the finals. WIth both teams with one loss in tourney shouldn't they play again? I *think* they do in softball?

Had that discussion w Jim Thompson ( coach T ) his thoughts were everyone knows the rules - but I agree either single elimination ( or one and done ) or true double elimination

I had that discussion with some people as well. Even though Hume-Fogg won, I would agree that teams like Hume-Fogg and South Greene should have to win twice in these situations. Also, I thought it was interesting that Summertown would have been the favorite in AA too. I do know that sometime during the Nolensville invitational (or right after) Hume-Fogg setter got injured and was out the entire district and region tournament. Didn't come back until the sectional against White House Heritage.

One bad game can drop you into losers bracket but a bad game in finals and it’s over / again not fair but for now guess that’s the way the cookie crumbles

Guess what? Contrary to all the expert opinions of the last couple of months, A team from East Tennessee, won in Single A. Fair and square, according the the rules that each team agreed to by virtue of their participation.

Instead of giving even a little bit of credit to an amazing comeback by South Greene, SG fans are lectured about "fairness."

Sounds like loser talk.

    • I used to think like that many many moons ago.  I wondered the same questions but learned that it is just not that easy.  Hiring assistant coaches can be complicated at times.  It takes a few years for HC’s to get who they feel is right for their system.  Couple that with good assistant coaches getting better jobs at times and leaving your program. More to it than some think.  I think you have a good coach up there and time will tell that story.  
    • okay.  Like i said initially, it's question we have to ask, but we sure don't know the answer yet.
    • You’re right, I shouldn’t jump the gun on it. Hopefully it isn’t related to the sports programs, because it’ll end up affecting a lot of innocent kids who just enjoy playing sports.
    • I totally agree but just don’t want to see people jumping the gun by insinuating it was for athletic reasons. Nobody knows at the moment except for those involved in the incident itself and those investigating.
    • Bruh, That portion of the post was simply a product of my imagination. Try to keep up.  The real purpose of the post was to rub salt in this fresh wound following FF’s departure to BGA.
