HVA make-up Jan. 22; BHS reset Feb. 8, both at FHS
Near record effort in Lady Ads win
After high winds and snow postponed both of Farragut High School varsity basketball’s two biggest rivalry home games, District 4-4A contests versus Hardin Valley Academy and Bearden have been rescheduled according FHS athletic director Donald Dodgen.
The HVA teams will visit Lynn E. Sexton Gymnasium Monday night, Jan. 22 (originally set for Jan. 16).
Bearden’s girls and boys varsity teams will travel to Farragut Thursday, Feb. 8 (originally set for Jan. 12). Opening varsity girls tip-offs for both games will remain 6 p.m. Boys games would follow.
As of deadline at 1 p.m., Tuesday, Jan. 16, Farragut’s District 4-4A games at Maryville Friday, Jan. 19, were still to be played. However, if school is postponed Friday, those games also would be postponed.
Lady Ads 86 West 20
Meanwhile, the FHS Lady Admirals’ most recent win was, perhaps, one of its most lopsided in program history — especially among all-time road games.
Led offensively by sophomore wing KJ McNealy’s game-high 20 points, followed by junior guard Jaci Neubert’s 16, Farragut romped past District 4-4A foe Knoxville West 86-20 at KWHS, Tuesday, Jan. 9.
The Lady Ads improved to 9-10 overall and 2-0 in district.
