2A state

[b-ball mania]

Don't you think the state champion will come from Region 4 2A?

How is region 4 2A stacking up this year?

After defeating Huntingdon friday night, Westview might be a new face to the State championship. They made their first state appearance in 2001 and loss the game to Goodpasture 14-0. This year they definitely have another chance. If they can get past Milan, then we'll prolly advance to the championship.

I've been following this a while so I'll give you guys a refresh and kind of what I see this year.

 

In 94 Lipscomb won the state.

In 95 Goodpasture won the state over a very good Meigs Co. team.

In 96 a 14-0 Goodpasture team lost to an incredible Webb team.

In 97 it was all Tyner all the time.

In 98 it was Milan knocking off Lipscomb. It wasn't as close as the score

In 99 Goodpasture beat Huntingdon pretty badly

In 2000 Alcoa and Union City played a classic. Both teams had tons of athletes.

In 01 Goodpastures defense, especially their linebackers were awesome. Beat Westview 14-0.

In 02 it was Lipscomb easily over Mitchell.

In 03 Huntingdon put on a show that was unbelievable. It was so good I don't know if they could have repeated it again. They were unbeatable in that game.

 

This year any of the three teams from the West can win it. It will come down to the end of a couple of games to decide it between Milan, Huntingdon, and Westview.

 

As for the east. I don't think regions 4 and 3 are nearly as good as they have been. Tyner will beat Goodpasture in round 2 because they are just so young. Lipscomb will beat Tyner in round three because Tyner tends to turn the ball over a bunch against Lipscomb.

 

Then it gets to Alcoa. I believe they are the best team in 2A. I'm not just saying that as an Alcoa fan because I live in middle TN and I'm not an Alcoa fan. I believe they get by Lipscomb and put on a bit of a show in the finals. Not that they will be much better than there opponent I just see somewhat of a role reversal from last year. I think Alcoa wins it all.

Sounds like JohnJohn knows his stuff.

I think the region 3-2a of Tyner, Sequatchie Co., Polk Co., and Marion Co. is very strong and balanced this year. Tyner heads up this region with the other three bringing there programs back to life after a few years of being down. Good Luck to Region 3-2a this year!!!!! thumb

so what i see from johnjohn post is that goodpasture or lipscomb has been to the state championship 8 of the last 10 years.and won it 5 of those 8 times. isnt it amazing that they can have those type of athletes son consistantly.

 

i usually pull for the public school teams in the east come playoff time, mostly cause those are the teams ive grown up watching and playing. but last year i loved watching huntingdon handle lipscomb.and while i didnt like the fact that lipscomb played up to their potential it was good to see a public shool gettin it done.hope we see a public vs. public this year.

Actually Tyner has more athletes just about every year than those two teams. Also Alcoa had more athelete in 2001 but lost on a blocked punt in the semi's. I also thought that Meigs Co. team had just as many athletes in 95. Westview had more athletes in 01 inluding Justin Harrell, and there Mr. Football finalist running back. I'll also tell you that as far as athletes go Mitchell had just as many as Lipscomb. With these two schools coaching goes a long way in their results.

what do you have against private schools....what did they do to recieve such disapproval

[moose3542]

Yes there could be some new faces in 2a. I dont think Goodpasture will be there because they are overrated and they always seem fold in sports. We will see though but I believe GP will fold.

Alcoa is definitely in their this year guys... thumb

Tyner has more athletes than just about anybody in the Chattanooga area, I think the weak spot for them would be their coaching??????
