This is hard to figure. Tennison appeared to this Carthage fan to be an outstanding high school QB last December in the regional championship game. Not very many kids who can play that position that well don’t want to play it. I would guess he’s looking ahead to college ball, but he should enjoy his senior year of high school football IMHO. There will be plenty of time for college football later.

Carthage has filled out its schedule with a Week 3 game against Liberty-Eylau.

Lost in 2020 & 2021 to Carthage & China Spring, respectively.

I repeat: is he a junior (as indicated in today’s telecast) or a senior (as shown in the program for last week’s Glen Rose game)?

Would they have been able to kick a field goal? They missed one of their extra point attempts.

Is Will Henderson a junior (as shown on today’s telecast) or a senior (as shown in the program for last week’s Glen Rose game)?

Congratulations to the Buckeyes. Have done a great job of turning things around since losing to Pleasant Grove. Best of luck next week against another team that has turned things around after a tough start. I’m sure this loss will provide plenty of incentive to the young players from Carthage as they work to start yet another long winning streak. The last 3 losses by this program were followed by winning streaks of 40 (2016-2018), 41 (2019-2021), and 29 (2022-2023). So it can be done…get your heads up and go back to work, Bulldogs. You have many fans who look forward to watching you go after it with all you’ve got.

What were the PG QB’s rushing stats last week?

Sophomores start at QB & RB. The backup RB (with a senior out again with an injury) who scored the winning TD last week is a sophomore, as is a TE/receiver who has been a big contributor while playing in certain packages. One of the 2 sophomores who start at OLB also plays some offense as a TE/receiver in some packages. The other starting sophomore OLB is either the leading or 2nd leading tackler on the team. Two sophomores also start in the secondary. In addition, a talented sophomore WR has missed most of the season with an injury. Other sophomores are backups who have gotten limited action before games became blowouts and a great deal more time after games became decided.

If indeed Carthage moves to Region 3 the next 2 years, perhaps these two teams will resume playing non-district games against each other. After last week’s game, it would be mighty interesting.

My research this morning reveals that you are correct. Does anyone remember the score of the 2021 game in Carthage? I attended but don’t remember the score.

Will the Lions forfeit the Carthage game?

How many times have these 2 teams met since then?

That’s a safe statement.

34-21 Gilmer
