PureFP Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 I just gotta crow, so forgive me all other partisans for the following paragraphs. Chattanooga is the home of the best softball in the state. All roads to great fastpitch in Tennessee pass through this little burg on the river. With only 3 teams left in each classification, the following teams are still in it from the Chattanooga Regions: 3AAA: Soddy Daisy (Undefeated, and hands down the best team in the state in any classification!) Cumberland (only loss to Soddy Daisy and quite possibly the second best team in any classification.) A: Boyd Buchanan (Only loss to Goodpasture) Div. II Baylor (Undefeated) Congradulations to the girls from Region 3! We now return to our regular programming already in progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPFanatic Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 I wouldn't be crowing, pure ump (lol) That mantle of best fastpitch in the state passed over to middle tn a few years ago, besides, does cumberland co. really consider themselves to be a chattanooga team?

PureFP Posted May 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 Too subjective a thread ain't it. Just having some fun. As for Cumberland Co., we adopted them as soon as they won their district, which does include area teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPFanatic Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 cumberland co. is too good, we got to keep them in the middle tn bragging rights area! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfer23 Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 I do agree with you, however Soddy did get beat by Goodpasture and the Soddy tournament. But, you are right. All roads lead through Chattanooga. That is why Spring Fling should be here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indian Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 You have to clarify what areas you're comparing. If you compared Hamilton County to any other county, I think you'd have to go with Hamilton as having more state-title level teams pretty much every year. this year I'd include the teams that made it to Memphis and also East Ridge in that group even though they lost to Lipscomb. If you're comparing Chattanooga area to Knoxville area including Maryville, or Nashville area including Brentwood and Beech, etc, it's more equal. The teams surrounding Hamilton County aren't great for the most part, unless you include Cumberland and Coffee (Coffee's stats were in the Chattanooga weekly statistics). If you include midstate, Nashville, Coffee, Beech, Smith County, Greenbriar, all over, that area is certainly superior in the number of very good teams but there are probably more bad teams too, it's just a lot of schools. And about Cumberland, I don't remember seeing anything about them ever locally until they got good, that probably tells you if they are Chattanooga area or not.

mynameis Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 I agree with everything you said except I am a believer that Goodpasture is the best team in all the land. I think their regular season tournament play showed that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureFP Posted May 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 All opinions, and all are valid. This is more of a bar room argument than anything else. But it is fun to see the various feelings on it out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrakid8 Posted May 23, 2003 Report Share Posted May 23, 2003 i do think that goodpasture is a very good team. they were better on that particular day at soddy field. i was there and watched the whole game. but remember any team can be beat. but i will have to say that i do think that Soddy is the best team in any classification in the state considering their only loss to tennessee opponents were baylor and goodpasture both in the finals of their persepctive classes and i think goodpasture was beaten by beech twice which did not even make it to state in AAA. not saying beech is not a good team just they got beat by them twice. but again good luck to Soddy Daisy, Boyd Buchanan, and Baylor bring back titles to chattanooga.
