The in county rivalry between Dickson (0-1) and Creek Wood (1-0) once had an obvious gap between “big brother” and “little brother.” On Friday night the Cougars found out that eventually little brother grows up. Dickson struggled to find any offensive rhythm, outside of a three minute stretch in the second quarter. That offensive slump paired with Creek Wood’s impressive running game led to a shocking 39-12 loss in the season opener. Creek Wood jumped out early with a four and a half, ten play drive, that covered 65 yards. A blocked extra point gave the Cougars a little momentum before entering their first drive down 6-0.Read More →

Dickson County racked up their fifth consecutive district tournament championship Saturday night with a 53-41 win of Centennial. The win gives the Lady Cougars a fourth straight District 11AAA title rivaling Lady Cougar softball for district dominance. On the court the result was seldom in doubt once the ball was in the air. Dickson jumped out to a 9-1 lead in the first quarter and ballooned the margin out to 19-6 at the end of the quarter. Centennial was slowed by an injury to Ashleigh Hardin, their starting center, and Dickson exploited the advantage to its fullest, repeatedly attacking the paint with Kailey Rosenbaum.

The Lady Cougars set the tone early and blew away Centennial 65-37. The win comes against arguably the second best team in District 11AAA and gives Dickson a full game advantage over the rest of the league as the last remaining unbeaten team within the district. Kailey Rosenbaum and Emily Beard both found early rhythm against a frustrated Centennial squad who seemed surprised by Dickson’s physicality. That physicality showed up in the first quarter with Rosenbaum banging down low on the first two buckets of the game. That sparked a 14-0 Lady Cougar run to start the game. From their the game was out ofRead More →

Darian Burns had a career game but the Cougars still fell short against Wilson Central, 58-49. Everything went according to plan in the first quarter for Dickson. Six points in the paint and three triples gave the offense balance and the defense forced Wilson Central into bad shots from way outside. Couple the poor shooting with a pair of turnovers that led to points and the Cougars had a 16-8 lead after one period. It didn’t take long for the Wildcats to adjust though. In the second quarter they refocused and moved their attack inside the perimeter to take advantage of size mismatches inside. 10Read More →

Dickson County started off hot from beyond the arch.

The lack of offensive firepower quickly showed up for Dickson. After Rosenbaum’sRead More →
