#10 ranked team in the state, Maryville, vs. #9 ranked team in the state, Bearden.

The 12-6 Maryville Rebels will be traveling to face the 16-3 Bearden Bulldogs, two top 10 teams in the state and district rivals. The Bulldogs are 3-0 in the district, while Maryville is looking for their first district win. Both teams have good young talent and veterans. The paint will be fun to watch, featuring former Bulldog and now Maryville Rebel Brody Smith, who stands at 6’6" and weighs 265 pounds, battling it out in the paint against Bearden’s 6’7", 290-pound Charles Humphrey.

I heard Maryville had a big or 2 out sick. Regardless should be a good game. Two potential teams that could be at the state tournament.

265 and 290? That's some men in the paint. However, that is entirely too heavy for the hardwood at their respected heights.. "Gentlemen to the baseline"

I don't know what has happened to Maryville.  3 starters returning from a team that went to the State Tournament.  Plus they returned a good player that was hurt last year. They also added Brody Smith.  This team is way too talented to look this bad.

Bearden was that good. Plain and simple. Yes we have some illness but the ball don’t lie.

Who is the 6'7" 290lb Charles Humphrey?   Is he a new player for Bearden that just joined the team this semester?    If so, that is an absolute huge addition to the team for the Bulldogs.

He is the transfer from Mase out of Memphis and a 3 Star Football recruit with offers from Miss State, Oregon, Memphis, Toledo, Marshall, and Arkansas State. He played football for Bearden this past year
