This is going back a ways but I remember Waverly Central in the 1960's had some great teams and played in the State finals in "67 and '68 and had a girl named SALLY SMITH. She was about 5'8" and had the sweetiest jump shot I've ever seen. She averaged around 44 points and she was unstoppable. Waverly went undefeated in '68 winning the State before classifications.

From Meigs County and the first 4 were on the same high school team for 2 years..

 

Rachel Powell - 3 yr starter for Georgia

Pam Irwin - 2 yr starter for Georgia and 6th man the other 2

Misty Greene - 3 National Championship rings at UT

Heather Wilson - 3 yr starter at UAB

 

Also........Debbie Trowbridge - 4 yr starter at College of Charleston

 

When Lady Vols played Georgia in National Champ. Game in 1997 there were 3 girls from Meigs who played in that game.......CAN ANYBODY TOP THAT ??

 

These girls lost 8 games in the six years they all played in high school....Irwin and Greene won 2 state championsips......Powell, Wilson and Trowbridge one each.....

 

 

Four straight Miss Basketballs.....Powell 92 and 93.....Greene 94 and 95

Also, back in the Mid to Late 70's, there was a girl from Loretta, I think her name was Jennifer White. She went on to play at Lousania Tech. Great Player!

 

Debbie Joyner from Trezevant, was possibly one of the best of the six on six era too. If I am not mistaken, she was the first 8th grader to start in a state tournament, and I know they won two, should of been three championships during her reign.

by the way, Kellie Jolly, who is now Kellie Harper and one of the greats you all have mentioned, is making her name in coaching. In her first year ever as head coach, her Western Carolina Lady Catamounts won the Southern Conference Tournament and will advance to the NCAA Tournament. Kellie is the first coach in Southern Conference to ever do that in her inaugural year as head coach. Just had to brag on her a bit. Way to go Kellie.

    • Well personally I see us going 9-1 so that isn't doom and gloom to me , Most people are thinking 6-4. Bearden will be the possible loss but hoping not. I was very impressed with what I saw this spring. 
    • the kid you are speaking about, played in JV games,  2H half Science Hill game, split time in Hardin Valley and Bearden and that was it.   The upcoming Senior RB was All Region as a Junior and is regarded by the media as one of the top running backs in East TN for 2024 season. Scouting services have him as a top 10 back in the state.  Something aint adding up with gloom and doom. Maybe he was hurt and not at spring practice when you watched?
    • It won't be long now, he gone.  
    • Are you kidding me?  You are just trolling now.  The new head coach's qualifications would be volunteer coach at the Oak Ridge Boys Club?  C'mon man, you can't be serious.  You're trolling us.  Anybody working at Clinton High School has to be like a cat in a room full of rocking chairs at this point.  They are coming after anybody and everybody that had knowledge of what was going on.  This is about to get real ugly.  Only in Clinton.  
    • So no way they can compete with the likes of McCallie or Baylor still then
