I was fortunate to witness three of the games last night and what dandies they were. First off North Greene beats Cloudland with a fifteen footer at the buzzer to win by one(51-50). Next, Unaka makes a three pointer with two seconds left to beat H.V. by three(66-63) and finally Hampton and Whitesburg went down to the wire before Whitesburg won out 78-72. Three great games that were not decided until the final seconds. That's what tournament action is all about. Saturday night's games will be: Cloudland vs. Happy Valley, Unaka vs. North Greene, Hampton vs. Unicoi Co., and finally for the championship will be Whitesburg vs. University High.

Unaka probably got more freshmen out this year than in several years. (Even after the PETERS kid went to Betsy, which in the long run may have been a blessing team-wise)The best freshmen so far this year seems to be the Lowe and Greer kids. Both seem to give 110% and show lots of talent. The Waters boy is a good player but isn't ready for Varsity yet.

I thought this thread was about results but I cannot find out who won the tournament. All the talk is about losing teams. Oh, the winner was not from Carter County so the winner is not important.

 

Volunteer did not win it's tournament but I listed all the scores. Why can you not do the same?

University High won the tournament. Bradley is a real player. He is a junior who will be to old to play his senior season. Unaka has a good team. Played well after an opening day loss. I think they won 2 games. Happy Valley has lots of talent but I won't get into it. Hampton does good with the talent they have. Tolley could be a fine player for Cloudland but seems to be a non favorite to his coach. Bradley and Chambers was fun to watch, so was Byrd. They had some close games in that tournament and the crowds were very good.

    • Bradford girls open back up with Tyler Tate leaving to take Gibson county boys.    what about this Bradford job I know they haven’t been very good for awhile. 
    • Going to be Rick Rudesell at Chester co Tyler Tate leaving Bradford girls that he just took over for Gibson county boys heard south Gibson making decision today if they hire this 1 name will be a shocker and open up another head coaching job 
    • Is there not enough Maryville people on the School board who can stop this?  I am no Alcoa fan by any means but I will say this. I guarantee you the Bledsoe,Marsh,Tyson,Warren,Kellog and Suddereth families wouldn't allow outsiders to take control of Alcoa High School.
    • Colton Faust played a lot as a freshman. I look for Julius Douglas to do well. I would love to have seen Thomas Manu stay at Maryville and play receiver. What has hurt Maryville the last 2 years is not having those outstanding skill players at WR and DB. There has been no AJ Davis or Kelby Brock type receiver at Maryville the last few years.
    • I see your point on the timing of when you play Alcoa.  I did not think West would reload after winning it the first time and they did. A three peat is hard for sure but until they stop it hard to pick against them. I was told they had 107 returning players(rising soph-SR) from at their banquet
