Class of 2009

 

Congratulations to our graduating class of 2009!  This class of 40 seniors had a combined ACT average of 23.9.  They received $2.4 million in scholarship and grant offers from the following universities and colleges: Abilene Christian University, Belmont University, Bryan College, Carson Newman College, Cumberland University, DePaul University, Faulkner University, Hanover College, Henderson State University, Lyon College, Maryville College, Middle Tennessee State University, Ohio Wesleyan University, Tusculum College, Union University, University of Pittsburgh, UT Chattanooga, Freed-Hardeman University, Harding University and Lipscomb University.  Special congratulations to valedictorian Laura Burgess and salutatorians Samantha Barrett and Andrew Kuhn.  This class included 13 graduates who have attended MTCS from Kindergarten through twelfth grade. Graduates, may God continue to bless you as you begin a new chapter in your lives. 

Touchdowns and Tunes

Please mark your calendars for the 3rd annual Touchdowns and Tunes event to be held July 31st at the Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville.  Dinner will be served at 6:30 p.m. and will be followed by a showcase of talented songwriters and performers.  Cost is $35, and tickets may be purchased in the school office or from any high school football player.  

Trap Team Accomplishments

Our trap shooters represented MTCS with great team and individual performances at the first ever AIM state shoot held at the Tennessee Clay Target Complex in Nashville on June 10th.  Our Junior team (Todd Pirtle, John Mankin, Ethan Fetz, Lucas Smith, and Trey Hill) won the Junior division championship outright by shooting a 967 out of 1000.  In addition to this great accomplishment, Austin Lowe (shooting with our other Junior team) tied for the high overall score by shooting a 197 out of 200.  Our 4th and 5th graders also did well and shot their personal best, finishing as state runner-ups.  The pre-sub team included Taylor Bolin, Garrett Sweeney, Sam Mathis, Nathan Smith, and Hunter Vaughn.  Congratulations!

New Football Website

MTCS/MTSU alumnus Jason Brunner and his broadcast partner Jeremy Smith have developed a new website devoted to Cougar Football -- www.thisiscougarfootball.com.  The site contains valuable information about our coaches, players, and opponents.  These young men also spent many hours during our fall 2008 football season recording play-by-play action of all regular season games.  They are now making CDs of these games available to Cougar fans.  Ordering information can be obtained by visiting the new website.  

DNJ All-Area Teams

Congratulations to the following athletes for being named to the Daily News Journal's All-Area Teams for 2009:  Matthew Coats, Tennis First Team; Katie Kahler, Tennis First Team; Clayton Mitchell, Soccer Second Team; Will Waldron, Soccer Honorable Mention; Abby Sweeney, Softball Honorable Mention; Michael Colvin, Baseball First Team; Andrew Kuhn, Baseball Honorable Mention.    

Tennis Region and District Championship Titles

 

Congratulations to Matthew Coats and Katie Kahler for capturing the boys and girls Region 6-A/AA singles championship titles on Monday, May 11th after picking up the District 11-A/AA singles championship titles just 6 days earlier.  John Mankin placed runner-up in the district championship and advanced to the region match where he picked up a 2nd place finish.  Matthew and Katie  advanced to the TSSAA state tournament -- marking the first time in school history that two players from the same sport have advanced to the Spring Fling.  Our boys' tennis team completed their regular season with a perfect record of 11-0, marking the first time in school history that our tennis team has gone undefeated.  The Cougars, under the leadership of Coach Lawrence Goodwyn, posted wins over Page High School (twice), Heritage Christian Academy (twice), Ezell-Harding, Marshall County (twice), Van Buren County, Spring Hill, and the much larger schools of Blackman and Riverdale and placed 2nd in the team district tournament.  Way to go, Cougars!

Soccer Team District Champions

Congratulations to our high school boys soccer team for capturing the 11-A/AA district championship on Friday, May 8th at Spring Hill High School, defeating Page High School 2-0.  They defeated East Hickman in the semi-finals of the Region Tournament on Tuesday, May 12th before falling to Columbia Academy in the Regional championship title match.  We are proud of you.

Junior High Baseball League Champions

The junior high baseball team finished 3rd in the regular season and defeated Nashville Christian in post-season play for the League Championship on Tuesday, May 12th.  The Cougars won 6-5 in extra innings.  Luke Adams was voted as an All-Conference player and named to the All-Star team, while Lucas Smith was voted MVP of the league and named to the All-Star team.  Congratulations to Coach Todd Hickey and all the Cougar players!

Regional Trap Competition

The 2009 Regional SCTP Trap competition was held May 2nd and 3rd in preparation for the Tennessee State competition later this month.  The state is divided into four regions and we participate in Region 2.  In the Middle Tennessee Region (Region 2) that the event had to be held in two separate locations because so many teams participated.  Because of the separation, the winners have just been announced. Congratulations to the varsity team for a third place tie with Coffee County by shooting a 474 out of 500 and to the Rookie team for FIRST place in Region 2 with a score of 430.  Also congratulations to Taylor Bolin who was HOA (High Over All)  in the Rookie Division breaking 97 out of 100 targets (in the pouring rain I might add) and Stockton McDaniel who was HOA runner-up in the Rookie Alternate division.  Also, our Rookies shot the highest Rookie score for the entire state!  Varsity team members are: Todd Pirtle, John Mankin, Ethan Fetz, Austin Lowe, Trey Hill.  Rookie team members are: Taylor Bolin, Garrett Sweeney, Sam Mathis, Nathan Smith, and Will Brown.  Alternates are: Hunter Vaughn and Stockton McDaniel.

DNJ President's Cup Award Winner

Congratulations to senior Andrew Kuhn, who was awarded the DNJ President's Cup Award at the All-Sports Banquet on Thursday, May 7th.  This prestigious award is given to students who excel on the field as well as in the classroom and community.  Other MTCS students receiving awards at the banquet were:  Abby Sweeney, Andrew Kuhn, Cathy Throneberry, Chelsea Foster, Clayton Mitchell, Dillon Wade, Hannah Claiborne, Heath Watson, Julia Howard, Katie Dunn, Katie Kahler, Keilani Murr, Killen Middleton, Logan Siler, Marissa Moore, Matthew Coats, Micah Farmer, Michael Colvin and Nathan Hunzicker.  We are proud of all of you.

Track Success

Congratulations to freshman Micah Farmer on winning the 400 meter dash east sub-sectional and being the first student in MTCS history to qualify for sectionals.

Junior High Soccer Season

Congratulations to our junior high boys soccer team for a successful season, posting a record of 5 wins, 4 losses, and 1 tie.  Many thanks are extended to volunteer coach Steve Wilson for the numerous long hours he devoted to working with and developing these young athletes during the season.  

Madrid/Paris Trip

The MTCS trip to Madrid and Paris in summer 2010 is sponsored by EF student tours.  The more participants we have, the less likely we are to be combined with another group.  There will definitely be a subgroup going to Italy together when the EF tour is over (extending the trip by about 4 days).  Current price including air from Nashville is about $2400 for students and $2800 for adults.  See the tour at www.eftours.com tour # 678487.
