Region 6 Duals

The Region 6 Duals were held this afternoon at McGavock. Overton advances to the State Duals to represent Region 6.

 

Franklin Road Academy beat McGavock and Overton beat Antioch in first round contests to set up a rematch of last Thursday's District 11 final between FRA and Overton, which was won by Overton 36-28.

 

Overton won a tough, hard fought contest between two evenly matched teams that was almost a replay of the District 11 final. Final score this time was Overton 37- FRA 28. As was the case in last Thursday's meeting, the contest was not decided until the final weight class, which, like the District 11 final, was 160 lb. Overton went in to that match leading 34-28 with FRA needing a pin to tie ( in the District 11 final, Overton was leading 33-28 going in to the final match). Larry Davis of Overton and Elliott Durr of FRA hooked up again in a hard fought rematch. Davis scored two points with 10 seconds left in the match to win 4-2 ( in the District 11 final, Davis won 6-4 in OT).

 

Congatulations to both teams for an exciting, well wrestled match and good luck to Overton in the State Duals next weekend.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
