He has his on thread on the football board, but I thought I would mention him here. Wilson Cates is at the top when it comes to student athletes. He is a great role model and a great Christian. He his also a great student. The last I heard he was right at a 4.0 and I think he wants to be a doctor. And I am sure everyone knows how good of an athlete he is.

Well the way I saw him play football I believe it says a lot about his will and determination...I do wish him the best???He's playing basketball right??

My daughter got a B in driver's ed so that messed up her chances of graduationg with a 4.0. <_<:thumb: She wrecked her first car the semester after she took driver's ed. Maybe she should have received something lower than a B. :angry:

She graduated with a 3.98 and was top of her class.

 

She played basketball for 3 years and softball for 5 (started in 8th grade).

I feel that Jenna Bartsokas is an excellent example of a student-athlete. She ranks in the top 10 of her class and is always respectful--not just towards teachers but towards everybody she meets. Additionally, she is an outstanding basketball player (though she was forced to sit out this past varsity season after transferring). She is an exemplary leader both on and off the court.

I think this is such a great topic! We have a number of our girls basketball team that are in the honor court, the top 10 of their class. They also are in the top 6 or 7 on the team.

 

The one that comes to mind first is Rachel Lockhart #11, a starter for Sequatchie County Lady Indians she is a sophomore this year, she had 21 points in the game the other night aginst Grundy County. She consistently scores in the double, rebounds in the doubles, assist are 8-10 per game has been more but not consistent enought to mention. Has been stright A student always. She is an Outstanding player as well as student.

 

Rachel is hoping to play for a college somewhere, just not sure where yet. :thumb:

I would like to add Hauns Brereton from Bartlett High School to this list. Hauns is an exceptional athelete averaging over 20 ppg. He is also the leading rebounder for his team.

 

Hauns is exceptional off the court as well. He is ranked number 6 in his class of over 350 students. Hauns is active in his church. He also is an Eagle Scout. His Eagle Scout project was unique. His project was a historical trail through the Bartlett Historic district. He prepare brochure's that can be picked up at the Bartlett Chamber of Commerce and other places through out the city. For more information about his project click the following link:

It is Hauns contributions off the court as well as on the court that has Ivy League schools as well as other prestigious universities looking at him.

    • The Girls Basketball team I am a part of played for a gold ball this season. One of the biggest differences in the sports is that there is no field prep/maintenance in basketball.   Our baseball is successful and play 30 games in the regular season as well. All of the teams dedicate A LOT of time in preparing for their next opponent. 
    • “facts” or better yet ‘opinions’ had been up for weeks/months. that’s not why the thread was deleted. get over yourself. 
    • Im pretty excited about the new rules that NFHS voted to adopt. Does anyone know if this will take place in Tennessee starting this year? I think I heard/read somewhere that the TSSAA bi-laws say they have to mirror what the NFHS does, and when the NFHS offered the current weight classes as options, TSSAA didn’t adopt them until NFHS made them official. Did NFHS make these changes official starting next season or will it be similar to the weight classes where TSSAA doesn’t change what they are doing until it is  an officially official part of the NFHS rule book? It’ll be interesting to see if it is rolled out for the new TSSAA Middle School season and I saw a post where the youth wrestling in TN was going to vote on adopting it as well.  I’ll pray for all the youth coaches that will have to shoulder the confusion from all those crazy #### parents who already think they know the rules more than everyone else  . Imagine the first time their kid is taken down and a 3 goes up on the scoreboard or their kid gets pinned with only one point of contact in the cylinder. Their heads might explode. i kid, I kid. Sort of. I’m surprised ride time was brought down with all the other changes. I know some argue that it promotes stalling on top, but its been an official scoring method in college forever, so I figure it must be doing something right. Do any of you think that’ll ever be implemented? 
    • Crazy how the thread just gets deleted when facts come out.
