Here is how I see the Class A region in the Eastern portion of the state (Regions 1-3) shaping up. Granted, this is what makes the most sense geographically, but making sense normally goes out the window when the TSSAA realigns the regions.

 

Region 1

Cloudland

Unaka

Hampton

Cosby

Jellico

Grace

 

Region 2

Coalfield

Oakdale

Sunbright

Oneida

Harriman

Midway

Greenback

 

Region 3

South Pittsburg

Lookout Valley

Whitwell

Copper Basin

Temple

Grace

 

*I could see Grace being put in Region 2, while Oneida or Harriman could be sent to Region 1. Greenback and Midway could also possibly be sent back to Region 3 where they played for many years.

I don't see Grace being in any region but 3 actually since they are in Chattanooga. Midway and Greenback, although I don't think it will, could be put back in region 3 like a few years ago.

He is speaking of Grace Christian Academy in Knoxville, not GBA>

Beene, if you notice there are two schools named Grace in East Tennessee. One is in Chattanooga and will be Region 3 while the Knoxville Grace will  be either in one or two.

Harriman won't be shiiped to Region 1. Although Oneida could be, if they want a 6-team region and they keep Grace in Region 2. I personally think they should keep the 5-team region up there although it's a weak one. It's not fair to anyone west of Knoxville to be shipped there.

My bad, I didn't see the other Grace. In that case then you're probably on the money.

Union City and Collinwood are three plus hours apart.  The TSSAA BOC won't go for a that and neither will the schools.  Collinwood and Perry County need to be in regions east of the Tennessee River.

They have had Perry County and Fayette Academy in the same region for 4 years, that's a good three+ hour trip, so your theory on the BOC not going for that is out the window. I agree that you shouldn't split up Wayne County and Collinwood.

Going back a few years, Union City and Middleton were in the same region and that was a long trip.

They have a chance to create some semi-friendly travel regions...but who knows. I'm sure there are going to be some schools with at least a two hour trip to play a region game regardless of classification.

Greenfield has both Perry County and Middleton on their schedule this season...they may look at that and figure if a school can schedule a non-region game that has a team traveling two plus hours, then it wouldn't be a big deal for a region game.
