Megan McCrary, a 2000 graduate of Beech High School who played basketball and softball for Beech, was tragically killed in an automobile accident Friday night after a 19-year-old drunk kid with no license ran a stop sign and flashing red light in Madison slammed into the car in which she was a passenger in. Obituary in The Tennessean this morning. Such a horrific tragedy to this beautiful girl and her family, especially here at Christmas. Family has set up a memorial fund in her name at 1st State Bank in Goodlettsville. Our deepest condolences and prayers from all in the Beech community. She will be terribly missed.

I once worked with a lady in Santa Clara, California who was wrecked by her drunk prom date .... only to recover, graduate from Stanford and then be hit by a drunk nurse, headed the wrong way on a one-way street in the early morning hours.

 

Her mother was quoted as saying, "They've Killed My Daughter, Twice." There was an article by that title in Readers Digest the following month of January of (I think) 1980.

I remember her name.... "Gail. I think her last name was Tietjen (spelling is questionable).

 

I think of her so often; and at this time of year; and especially when I hear of something like this.

 

We at Unaka have so many who have died very young (though not necessarily alcohol-related). Our trophy-case has so many dedications to those who have passed, way before we felt should be their time to go. On behalf of ALL Rangers and fans, Thoughts, Prayers, Love.

    • middle school kid and a freshman from what I’m told. 
    • While one may be inclined to perceive this narrative through a lens of fiction, it behooves us to recognize the inherent robustness of its credibility. For those seeking veracity, the surest path lies in direct engagement with the primary source. Let us adhere diligently to the matter at hand, focusing our deliberations on the matter of paramount importance: the identification of the individual most suited to assume the mantle of head coach. I invite introspection and discourse regarding not only personal preferences but also the criteria defining merit and suitability for this esteemed position.
    • If it’s one single kid then that argument would make sense. He’s essentially had to replace his entire coaching staff in the first two seasons, and like it’s been pointed out only one left for a better job. The two most talented players in the area both left, and number of others are actively trying to leave, including the head basketball coaches son. Also, the rumors of financial problems and over spending by Jones. Unpaid bills, missing money, inability to fundraise, has the boosters sick of being hit up for money.    Im saying that is the definition of a poorly run disorganized program. If you want to pretend it’s a well oiled machine maybe you should take your maroon glasses off. All I know is I wouldn’t let my boys play in that kind of mess. 
    • It usually gets tiresome when posters play characters on the board, but I must admit that I’ve found some humor in wingback’s take on this art form.  However, his rundown on the potential candidates seems as much fiction as his persona!
