In 2004 six Blackman athletes joined together to make a team conjoined with athletes from Overton High School. Since then, the Blackman team has left Overton and combined with the newly built Stewarts Creek High School team to compete against other high schools in the area as a part of the Greater Nashville Area Scholastic Hockey (GNASH).

The team has been notorious for filling the bleachers very fast. T
he high status of the team didn’t come easy or fast. In 2004, when the team began, the stands were mainly filled with the players’ parents and a few friends. Over the years, more and more students
around Blackman and Stewarts Creek became aware that there is even a hockey team at their schools.

The season started out with the team with a shut out from Centennial, starting the season off with a downward trend. Although they are not finished with the season, the trend is steadily moving upward.

Individual players’ stats are also excelling. Top players include Colton Tincher, a senior at Blackman, with two goals and four assists; Jackson Taylor, a sophomore at Stewarts Creek; and Evan Myers, a sophomore at Stewarts Creek, with two goals and zero assists.

The one player that stands above them all is Tanner Viola, a senior at Stewarts Creek, with nine goals and one assist.
