Derek Milligan of Powell will be wearing #5 for the East squad. Milligan rushed for over 2,000 yards in 2002, and was a first team all state selection and was a finalist for the American General Mr. Football Class 4A Back Of The Year Award.

 

He and T.J. Brock are going to help give Carson-Newman a great one-two freshman punch out of the backfield.

No, Milligan is going to be a tailback. Coach Sparks told me that in an interview I conducted with him shortly after Milligan signed with the Eagles.

 

One of the reasons Milligan chose C-N over some bigger schools was because he will be given the opportunity to play tailback. Marshall, among others, offered him as a DB.

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
