Heard today that David Crockett was invited to this year’s tournament and chose to go to Florida.  Obviously Crockett didn’t want to face the tough competition in the Ladies Classic.  They had never been invited so I can’t believe they turned it down.

I would love to know the criteria for tournament participant selection. There are a lot of great teams around East TN that haven't been invited in the past 5 years. There may be some other tournaments in the area that host higher caliber teams.

What you think? 

Since you are a fan of Southside, I'm glad you asked. 

I believe your team has a chance to make the finals.  I think they might be too much for Webb in the semis (even though Webb did beat Bearden on Wednesday) Then, if they reach the championship, you all will have to beat one of two good teams — either a very good Marist School from Atlanta or another very good school from Bartlett, TN. You may be already familiar with Bartlett, since they are from West TN.

I think SS could win the championship, but they'll definitely need their "A game" in the semis and especially for the championship.

Looking at the website and the field of teams they have. I understand that it is an invitational and your team has to have had a pretty decent record the previous season and/or a college recruit. I have heard about this tournament in the past and it is one of if not the best in the state this time of year.

The track record for the Ladies Classic in Greeneville speaks for itself — 34 years of great women athletes passing through our little town, heading for bigger and better things.

All we can ask for is a chance! Yes I seen Webb is a very good school, per usual! Not familiar with that Atlanta school, but we are very familiar with Bartlett. We have exceeded my expectation in this tournament, so we will see how the rest goes. I am hopeful for another healthy season & I like my chances. And then we will see how it goes come March!

Webb looks like an extremely young team. I'll go out on a limb and pick Southside to win today's game. 

You might want to stream both of today's semis. One girl to watch on Marist is #15 Kate Harpring. She is only a sophomore, but, man, she is a great all-around player. Marist beat an extremely good school from Lexington, KY area last night, George Rogers Clark. Best game of the tournament, so far. IMO

    • Yeah they both should be good games whoever matches up with who. Wartburg has beaten Oliver Springs all 4 times they’ve played this year but they have been close games. I believe Wartburgs first sectional appearance was last year when they went to North Greene. Good luck to you all!
    • What did they do this year? Every other year, I’ve gone to one. It’s been a little scrimmage and then a bunch of games like a quarterback throwing challenge, O line versus D line, push-up challenge, etc.    But not surprised, nothing new that the program has been on the decline since they lost their recruiting middle school coach. The baseball coach still does his fair share, but he recruits good baseball players. Not good football players, and decent baseball players, definitely nothing like the middle school coach could do, he left for a middle school job down near Cleveland high school a few years back.
    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life.
