See the other thread about Tullahoma. Who I can remember being there from memory:

Tullahoma, Riverdale, Kenwood, Lavergne, Macon County, Beech, Blackman, Siegel, Northwest, Coffee County, Columbia Central, Mount Pleasant, Lebanon, Spring Hill and I'm leaving out somebody obvious I'm sure...

So.....if more teams in that area had teams, there would be 5 sections? That would throw a proverbial monkey wrench into the state qualifying system now wouldnt it...?

You are correct. Let me explain my post a little more. The way that the AAA does it in that same section is that the Cahttanooga area has a 10 team sub-sectional meet and the Murfreesboro/Middle Tennessee has a 11 or 12 team sub-sectional meet. We take the top four runners from each sub-section and have a one heat sectional. The sectional rotates each year. One year it is in Chattanooga and the next it will be in Murfreesboro. This would be the ideal system for you guys in A-AA too, but since there are so few schools in your area that have track, that will force you to have to come to Chattanooga every year for the sectional meet.

LAVERGNE TO WIN 4X800 AT STATE IS MY PICK

Lavergne's 4x8 may very well romp on Section 3AAA...in fact, I think that they will win the section without any trouble. But I believe the way Lhswrassler described it (and he is on the relay, and can correct me if I'm wrong), they are still one leg short still of being truly great. Still, I wonder who is favored to win the thing? We knew McMinn was really good this time last year, and even we had ran 8:10 by this point last year...so who is favored? I wish Lavergne would take it, I don't think our section has represented the state title in the 4x8 in forever.

We have had some bad luck here at McMinn with our injuries. The two guys back from last year's winning squad are both hurt. We will be lucky to make it. It's hard to run a good team when you don't have Tray Hurst and Josh Hicks.

 

I think it is between Oak Ridge and Bearden for the win. OR went 8:14 at Vol Classic. They've got Matt Hudson who runs a 1:56. Bearden ran an 8:22 at Vol Classic, but they always seem to run a lot faster come state. I don't know who their stand-out 800 runner is though. Both teams hold the 1st and 3rd fastest times in AAA. Lavergne's 8:18 at Kenwood Classic is 2nd. Baylor leads the state overall with the 8:04 they ran at home by themselves. It was with their "A" guys though. I pick McCallie to win the D2 4X800.

I think that there will be quite a good race at the that sectionals meet. I think several teams have run respectable times already in that area. LaVergne of course is looking good, McGavock ran an 8:23 already :o , Hunters Lane has broken 8:30 this year, and even Beech has been under 8:30 and they qualified last year with no problem :D . I havent seen Brentwood run a 4x800 this year :P , but they did do an 8:13 at regionals last year and they usually seem to do ok. Anyways, I don't think it will be a walk in the park for anyone to win. I think it should be a 5 or 6 team race. Im trying to drive down to Brentwood to watch the meet. The 4x800 should be quite a treat. :huh:

I agree, there should be some dynamite 4x800s coming up. That regional meet w/Lavergne, McGavock, Brentwood, Hunters Lane, Beech, and Kenwood should be a dandy. Anybody know if Oak Ridge and/or Bearden have any big races coming up before Sectionals? I know Hudson is good for OR, but I don't know too much about their other guys (or Bearden for that matter). Should be a dandy at states!

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
