Wow.. It looks like I got hurt at the wrong time... With the Siegal guy running 1:56 last night and Knox running 4:25 at Vol my chances at making state are on the line... Kinda scary but this is what makes track fun... Gotta step up to the challenge.. Congrats to all that did well..

correction he upset everybody in the field except Chris Pearson. Chris Pearson was the Kenwood Classic Champion. :rolleyes:

Ok, so Pearson did win the 100 last year.

Does anyone else here think its funny that Andrew Bumbalough from brentwood academy would have beat the guy who won the 3200 meter race by almost a minute.

If by funny, you mean that the fact that Bumbi is a minute better has some sort of comedic value, then no- Bejan ran an unbelievably gutsy race, and to post anything on these boards which would take away from his accomplishment is to not understand what he did. He ran a PR, school record, and Great 8 record in the 1600, and then- only an hour later- ran a PR, and a Great 8 record in the 3200. He is only a junior, and he has an unbelievable amount of natural talent.

 

Bumbi is a great runner, but I think its unfair to every other runner in the state to hold anyone else to his expectations. He is the best 2-mile runner in the nation, and I personally dont find it "funny" that Bejan ran a great race Tuesday...

The 2 boys in the 3200 in the Great 8 were great to watch. That ought to even be a better race next year. Who was that other kid behind Bejan in the 3200 race that got beat at the line? What year was the other kid?

His names Clay Hannah from Lebanon High, but I dont know for sure what year he is- although my guess is senior...

 

But yeah, like you said, Bejan will only get better. Next year is going to be an awesome race. What would be really awesome would be if Bejan got good enough to tempt Bumbi into racing it too, but I guess thats more likely in the 1600 than the 3200...

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
