HAPPY VALLEY – With lightning flashing just a couple of ridges away, six middle schools came to Warrior Hill on Friday evening to kick off the 2021 season with a Middle School Jamboree featuring six area schools.
Boone, East, Hampton, Cloudland, Happy Valley, and T.A. Dugger were licking their chops to get in some final action even if it was only an eight-minute quarter as fans filtered in between quarters to support this school.
Hampton, Boone, and T.A. Dugger were able to take their respective quarters with all teams flashing signs of the exciting upcoming season.
Action gets underway this week for some of the middle school teams including T.A. Dugger who opens on the road Thursday in Greeneville which is always an entertaining showdown.
