Franklin/B-Wood questions...

[M'boroPATS]

Hey,

It has been a long time since I have been on. I was just wanting an update on Brentwood, and Franklin.

 

Hey Fhsrebel27, Are you still eating lunch in the cafeteria?? j/k!!

Brentwood may be in for a long season having lost Tay Brogdon, Lauren Dugger, Anne Weingartner, and Kate Prentice to graduation. Their key returning players are Kate Hughes, Jessica Brennard, & Erica Shumacher. A new player that has done well is Kat Butler, but I have not seen her play since she was not present at the Page game due to an injury. I heard that she accounts for about 60% of their offense. Brentwood looked the worst I've seen them in years with a lot of turnovers, but the season is early and maybe they will improve.

 

I have not seen Franklin yet, but they lost Nikki Barney and Bennett Yarbrough to graduation. Returning players include Jessica Roberts, Kandra Bailey, Kameron Harrison, and Taryn Holland. With new coach Sean Stephenson, Franklin could also take some games to get used to his coaching style, I guess. We'll just have to see what develops during the season.

I disagree. I think Stephenson is a pretty good coach. He did well at Dresden. And in time he will do well at Franklin. I will say Franklin in a close one. Just to athletic for Brentwood.

Eat dirt, you are an idiot, it is obvious you haven't done your research. Sean is a really good coach. You obviously didn't see what he did at Dresden. Two sub-state berths the last three years and should of been three in a row if the team had not had so many injuries late in the season. Do everyone a favor and know who and what you are talking about before you make ignorant statements.

Train, apparently you don't know what you're talking about. Dresden underachieved big time. They supposedly had all kinds of talent, just like this year, and didn't do crap. Over the last few years, Dresden could be considered one of the most overrated teams in recent history. You're right, Coach Stephenson is a pretty good coach, but it's hard to coach high school girls when they peeked in middle school.

 

I guess two substate appearances is pretty good, but at Gleason, just making it there is not good enough. That's why they'll always be one step ahead of Dresden.

Brentwood doesn't look like they're struggling to me. Big wins over Ravenwood and Centennial as of late, with no signs of slowing up. Siegenthaler is doing an excellent job of coaching a young team. I thought it would be a long year for the Lady Bruins at first too, but apparently not. They're still undefeated in the district.

[PageMan]

Brentwood appears to be back on track to me, CALL4BRUINS. I saw that Kat Butler returned to the lineup for the Centennial game and had several assists and steals. Is she a freshman? Several other players have also stepped up their game including Becca Yarbrough who I believe is the sister of former Franklin player Bennett Yarbrough. It will be an interesting game at Franklin on Jan. 21.

Brentwood's real test will be 1-4-05 against a strong Hillsboro team who will have the only missing starter from last year back from injury just in time for the Lady Bruins. Hold onto your hats it will be a fast paced game

realfan04, you are talking out both sides of your mouth. The comment was that Coach Stephenson had done a good job at Dresden. You said he didn't and then went on to say that it is hard to coach a team that peaked in middle school and that he is a pretty good coach. Which is it, Coach Stephenson didn't do a good job or the team peaked before he got them? We all want to know your expert opinion.

I watched BHS play Page. I got there at halftime and after watching a few minutes of the game, I questioned if it was a JV game. They have no speed, size, or depth to there team. They cannot even to compare to last year's team. I think it will be a very long year for the Bruins.

 

From what I have seen, the FHS coach seems to be coaching the team very well. I am not sure what happened to them against Hilsboro. I thought it would be a close came, but they ended up getting beat by 20. I'm guessing they were just having a bad night because they are a really athletic group.

givbkr2, the game might be fast paced when Hilsboro has the ball, but not when BHS does. They have no girls that can even match up with Hilsborors speed. BHS has absolutely no players that are fast, so i really don't see how it is going to be a fast paced game.
