Maryville hosted Farragut on Monday night in the eagerly anticipated first meeting between the two big district rivals of the 2012 campaign.

The Admirals were out to revenge the drubbing that they were on the end of when these two teams met last year and got the result they were looking for. However, both teams seemed to forget the occasion, and the atmosphere of the entire game was fairly subdued.
