TSSAA Spring Fling 2019: Five big games for Friday's high school state tournaments

State championship contests will be played in tennis, Division I baseball, softball and soccer and DI Small Division track and field as Spring Fling wraps up in Murfreesboro Friday.

Here are five things to watch:

Forrest vs. Covington baseball

The Rockets entered the Class AA state baseball tournament hovering around .500 (16-14), but rolled through the winners bracket before splitting a pair vs. Sequatchie County Thursday to earn a trip to Friday's finals at 2 p.m. at MTSU's Reese Smith Field. Forrest has allowed two or fewer runs in three of its four contests at Spring Fling.

Station Camp vs. Bearden soccer

Something will have to give when the two-time defending state champion Bison (17-2-4) take on the Bulldogs (20-3) at 4 p.m. at Richard Siegel Park's stadium. Neither team has allowed a goal in the Class AAA tournament. Station Camp and Bearden have won the past three Class AAA state titles, with the Bulldogs having captured the 2016 championship.

Siegel vs. Knoxville Halls softball

The Lady Stars will have to win the losers bracket contest (9 a.m.) against Halls at Starplex in order to reach the Class AAA state championship and get a rematch with Jefferson County (which defeated Siegel 1-0 Thursday). Siegel junior pitcher Sophie Golliver has allowed just one run total in three tournament games. Friday's 9 a.m. winner will have to defeat Jefferson County twice (beginning at 3 p.m.) to earn a state title.

Creek Wood vs. Lexington softball

The Lady Red Hawks will try to avenge a 1-0 loss to Lexington in the second round that knocked them into the losers bracket of the Class AA tournament. Creek Wood (37-6-1) has allowed just three runs total in four tournament games. The winner of the 9 a.m. Starplex contest will get Forrest (and will have to beat the Lady Rockets twice) at 3 p.m. in the championship.

Nathan Zou vs. Donovan Janicek

Central Magnet's Zou and Brentwood's Janicek will battle head-to-head for the second time in three days during Friday morning's Large Division boys state singles title match at Adams Tennis Complex (9 a.m.). Zou defeated Janicek 6-3, 6-1 in Tuesday's team tournament finals, but Janicek's Bruins won the match 4-1. Zou beat defending state champ Takuma Walker of White Station (6-4, 6-1) in the semis Thursday.
