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.

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.

    • Could be wrong just too small of a town for word to be spread.  AC didn’t get a reward school achievement and Clinton did. My guess is that started it

    • When she starts farting around with the football team the powers in Maryville will run her out of town on a rail and everyone connected with letting her in the door. You saw what happened when Alcoa's radio announcer thought he was coming to Maryville, the people rose up and stopped it.
    • 20 but had 5-6 not dressed every game. It went down towards the end due to injuries and obviously only 15 got to dress for the state tournament. Then, they only lost 2 from this year and gain 8 from the middle school for next year
    • As somebody mentioned before, this is going to result in a massive lawsuit, can you imagine professional "educators" actually having the conversation about getting "the bad kids" out of the high school?  And the head coach asking directly to change grades, gets turned down, comes back again and gets it approved?  This is unbelievable.  In addition to the lawsuit, the state Department of Education is going to come down extremely hard on this.  WYSH is on the war path.  There could be dozens more lose their jobs by the time this is over.  And yeah the real shame is the kids being affected that literally had nothing to do with this and actually worked hard to earn their grades.
