Don,

Last year Lawrence County lost 6 seniors, but they should be stronger defensively. Pitching, they lost Huckaba and Snider, but both were not as effective as expected last year. Lefty Tyler Copeland is back from an All-District season last year, but could be the #2 pitcher this year, Ben Beckman is also a very talented pitcher, suffered from some control problems last year and just never got in a rhythm, but is looking very strong and under control this year, throwing the ball very hard. They could be this year's version of Edwards and Pierce, but that could be an exaggeration, we will just have to wait and see how things play out. Good luck to Tullahoma this year, just hope Lawrence County does a little better than them, no offense.

Hey I have got a good one that nobody knows about that has jus moved in from Dom. Republic. His name is Carli Mceacahern. This kid is unbelievible, he throws a easy 94 on a average day!! It is the fastest thing I have ever seen. Miami has already offered him a full ride. You can believe me or not, but I ain't joking!!!! This kid just moved in about 4 days ago, and already is known that well!!!

thanks for info. Actually right now for us, levi was right, Jarred Smith may be our anchor. He pitched real well against Warren County. Bryan is not yet back to full speed. I am keeping fingers crossed and hope he gets back up there in velocity.

boyd buchanan has a really solid pitching staff this year. Chris Charles and Kenny Hickman will head the staff with a VERY solid 3 man in Nick Schild, and they have two more experienced hurlers (Andrew Holt and Josh Oakley) looking to get on the mound once thier arms heal.

OSKevin, I am Ryan Moore's cousin, and I play for Ooltewah. I know him pretty well and have seen him throw on many occasions. Whoever made the post saying he throws mid 90's is not correct. However, Ryan has been clocked at 91. He consistently throws his fastball around 88 or so. He is a sophomore, but towards the older end. He's big too. And I don't mean just kind of big. He's a big guy for his age and grade. He was McCallie's starting quarterback this year and led them to the state championship. So believe me or not, he does throw upper 80', and has been clocked at more.

Josh Bell out of Jackson North Side is by far the best pitcher in the state in my oppinion. he has already committed to Auburn, and one game i went to last year he was clocked at 95 and stayed around that area the rest of the game.

    • Congratulations to Huntingdon and Station Camp. Lots of good softball in Tennessee. Alcoa been media favorite last two seasons. 
    • Im more of a Basketball follower than football and like I said we play what we have, there is no going and recruiting or even talking kids into transferring…..and to rebut about Memphis teams in finals I’ve watched Memphis East and Penny Hardaway with the enrollment of a single A team play up and dominate any and all challengers for years! They aren’t the only ones either Mike Miller and son at Germantown put together that super team a couple years ago that ran through the rest of the state! Other teams from Memphis or Chatt or Nash or any large populated area pop up and are relevant out of nowhere every year because they get an influx of talent be it from a new coach or AAU affiliations it happens in football also just like any other sport! I hope these two schools that close join together and get to play the team you support, then you may see it differently! I find it funny some of you think recruiting and resources don’t matter . The county schools get very little funding also but you don’t want to get me started on that part! 
    • In a total classless move, Coach Simmons once again shows his true colors. Waits till the day after school is out to let everyone know he is leaving. Fails up to a community college job after a lackluster 2 year span at GH. And do not tell me about the state run that saved a sub .500 season and plenty of whippings by Cookeville and Lebanon.  Looks like the girls job at GH is cursed. Terrible MS program/coaches feeding what is turning out to be a joke of a HS team.
