Check out this great story on one of our signees in Tennessee. It is a great testimonial from the kid and Coach Alder:
Payback on old turf?

Last year, Blackman goalkeeper Paul Gilbert had a lot to deal with during his team's trip to Cookeville for the Region 4-AAA soccer tournament, which Cookeville eventually won 7-6.

Gilbert, who had transferred to Blackman from Cookeville, took 80 minutes of taunts and catcalls from the Cavalier faithful for his decision to move to Murfreesboro.

Great story. Sounds like a great student-athlete... THEY ARE OUT THERE... in all sports... LU is quickly becoming the destination... Hopefully in a few years we'll drop the "small Baptist college" references as people see us as "The Largest Evangelical University"... it has a ring to it.

A year of hard work and excellent play has paid off for a group of area soccer players.

Five local players have been named to this year's Tennessee Athletic Coaches Association's Class AAA all-state team.

Gilbert was the last line of defense for the Blaze and did not disappoint from his keeper position. The Liberty University signee posted 14 shutouts and was a first team All-District 7-AAA selection.

This is good to hear, I posted a while about about our keeper situation with no bites. I'm glad to see this posted.


When I was at Liberty I was in the same dorm as our previous keeper and a few of the other players and well a lot of the teams for that matter.
