We were only three students away from being 1A last time. I'll always wonder if maybe we could have won a state championship last year if we would have been 1A?? We will never know. Anyway, just don't see us moving up to 3A???

We were the type team to beat SP but who knows how we would have matched with Mckenzie. Its all about matchup's. And Cloudland definitely should have beat SP.

I agree... but I don't agree on 2A being worse than 1A last year. Ole Ty Simpson was a total difference maker.

It's crazy came to think King that we were three students shy of having that chance... but that's the way the ball bounces as they say LOL

Last years Hampton team was deceptive because they weren't flashy or spectacular.  But it may be the best all around unit since the 2001 landers

Now that's saying something. Those 2001 Landers were one tough bunch, arguably the best ever at Cloudland. I am also partial to the 1996 Hampton team being our best ever however it's impossible to talk about teams of different eras being better..who knows??? it's a crap shoot LOL

Yeah Jc cost Hampton a state championship in 96.  Doubled the yards of the eventual state champion and made some terrible play calls

I've heard some people say  Knox Webb's coach said that year that the quarterfinal game between Hampton and Webb was for the state championship. Webb pretty much cruised after that game.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • 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.
