TheYJacket Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Lookout Valley in 1977 (25-1) state champions. Larry Knight pitched and still holds almost all of the tennessee state records. He also played for the Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadblue Posted March 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Rebel00...You are forgetting an important person: Bryan Burklin - Bat Boy. Farragut's finest implant!!! He was the one who told me the story of Fulmer hitting the HR to win the state championship. Wish I had been there to see it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wushy101 Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 I agree w/ Jackie Reavis being one of the best coaches in TN he is awesome. Farragut is definately close to the top and also germantown's 2001 team they were good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbg Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 I would have to agree with Coach Clark that it would be the 1985 Germantown team. They finsished the year #1 in the Nation and won the best high school tournament in the country out in California. A truly great team.

DragonzBaseball11 Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 i'm gonna have to give top honors to Heltons Central team that went 31-0 with trammell. if you give them the bats we have these days and all of the new equipment they would be that much better.

That year they were never tested until the state championship game against MBA. That game alone had 11 division 1 players in it. Don't forget that MBA had a great team that year as well. Steven Bess, the high school pitcher of the year that season (12-0 0.25 ERA), was slated to throw the next day if MBA had beaten them that night. MBA lost that game 6-5 and left the bases loaded in the last inning. The public and private split really hurt the progression of that rivalry because during that stretch those two teams met quite often. That 1995 MBA team had a record of 36-2, both losses coming in the state tournament. Bess, Michael Frey, Franklin Jarman, and Dave Sifford all made all-state that year with Frey and Bess making Mizuno All- Americans. Germantown had three make the Mizuno team as well. That match-up was tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigRedDog Posted March 12, 2004 Report Share Posted March 12, 2004 The 1993 MBA state championship team was pretty good too. R.A. Dickey was the man that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevelle Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 The 1985 Unicoi County team was 41-1 and ranked #4 in the nation. That team still holds quite a few of the state records and a handful of national records. I'll take germantown, Farragut and this team as the best 3 but in no particular order.

In10city Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 I saw several of the teams mentioned (Oakland, Germantown, Christian Brothers) in their state title years. I'd still give the honor to 2003 Farragut team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebel00 Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 franklin county state champs. yes it was 1968 . miss typed . they were a great team with the emphasis on team. many good stories from that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip6930 Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 I would have to say the best teams ever were Christian Brother's 1997 state championship team (the last year before they split up into d-I and d-II) the 2000 CBHS team that won states and went 41-5, and also the Germantown team of 95'.
