Ensworth vs MBA

[LittleDTO]

I go to a highschool game every week and this week I had to go to my school Franklin, hosting Brentwood. It was a pretty good game but some of my other friends saw the Ensworth-MBA game.

It was their first time watching Ensworth this year. According to them, there is a Junior rb for Ensworth who is awesome. He has some weird last name to which I cant remember (hyphenated last name). This is a guy that UT needs to keep an EYE on. If anyone can look up his name and post it, that would be great. I am typing this from my phone and dont feel like looking up the info on my slow phone browser.

[LittleDTO]

Yeah. According to my friends at the game, he looked VERY good. And against good competition as well.

According to the Tennessean he had over 300 yds rushing....yikes. :blink:

 

[TennTom]

His name is Orleans Opoku-Darkwa. ESPN says he's considering Vanderbilt.

Im going to try and attend their next home game. He is just a junior right now.

He is a solid Vandy as of now! I have seen him play. Very quick and good vision. Ensworth will be the new MBA/BA in the next 5 yrs. They are getting the talent in Middle TN. He will be on TV on Oct 30 vs Battle Ground Academy. Great game! Both should be unbeaten on the last week of the year! Watch it...he is good! I'll be for BGA (alum and son on the team) but this kid can play!!!!

Peaygolf, how do you like Tim Johnson? He was my DB/WR coach when I was at Franklin. I thought he was great.

Does BGA play MBA? If so, they probably won't be unbeaten.

They do not. BGA has Baylor, BA, Knox Webb, and Ensworth left. BGA has 4 legit 1A players and 3 other 1AA players. There qb is the real deal (Miami Ohio commit)

Tim is a class man! He is doing a great job at BGA. He works the kids hard, but they respect him alot.

BGA plays hockey with my school. Their school is so rich.

wish my HS would have had hockey or lacrosse, i would have loved to hit someone.

 

[Midfielder10]

They are both so expensive. That's why they aren't more widespread. It's growing though. Need more rinks.

I would have jumped on the opportunity to play lacrosse.

UT has club lacrosse. Its very well respected around the country. My coach played at Western Carolina and UT was a "semi-varsity" club team with buses paid coaches, recruiting etc. Its about 1,000 a year to play though.
