Lighthouse Christian beat CPA on CPA's floor 60-54 tonight.

Bottom line - both teams played hard and well and game was won and lost at the line. Lighthouse scored no baskets the last 3 minutes but made about 8 of 9 free throws.

CPA's star, Travis Sikes, missed 5 free throws in a row in the last 2 minutes, 2 of them the front end of 1-1; so that's 7 missed points and CPA loses by 6.

 

Lighthouse is a very good team with a 6'7 big man, who had over 20 points, all on layups and tap ins. He never took one shot away from the basket, but is a good rebounder, hustles and plays good D. They are very quick and should win almost all their games.

 

CPA was missing a starter, Hobgood, who separated a shoulder at the end of the football season. He will be back in a couple of weeks.

 

A good game, 2 good teams. CPA has 8 seniors, so if they don't win this year, the next few with a move up a division will be rebuilding.

The Lighthouse in Div. 2 you are thinking of is is in West Tn. This Lighthouse Christian is in Nashville (Antioch) They dropped out of the TSSAA before last year. They where in the same district as Ezel, DCA, FRA, etc. They are a small school in a private school league. Most schools in that league could not compete with TSSAA members. But looks like Lighthouse can. I was very shocked to see this score.

Shocking? CPA just came back from football and are not in basketball shape. They are also missing Hobgood. Hit a few free throws and the game would have had a different ending. Ferrell was on fire the first half. This will be a BIG year for him. Lighthouse has a good team this year. This is nothing like the Lighthouse of a few years ago.

He's a classy and gutsy kid that works hard and deserves the hype. Good luck this year, Zach.

      OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.

      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.
