I know that is a great job, however, only losing one guy from last years squad, I thought they would be in the top two or three again.Originally posted by ghost80:
Finishing 6th in the state (all classes) in the 4x4 is not a small feat.
Good job SE!
Of course you do know that one of the best soccer players in the Fort Dodge program's history was a St. Eds alum, right ghost?Originally posted by ghost80:
Stickman,
I think you are dead wrong about SE forcing soccer on their athletes next year. It make absolutely no sense.
First, SE has a tradition in track. There is no way the school will throw that away to either continue sharing a soccer program with FDH (who is no superpower in 3A soccer) or start with a program on their own (which would be downright ugly).
Second, SE has a tradition in baseball. There is no doubting soccer is a tough physical sport. Kids will get injured playing this game and SE's kids tend to not be the hardiest when it comes to injury. The same kids who comprised their vastly undersized football line would get tossed around like rag dolls fighting for 50/50s at mid field. There is no way SE wouldn't lose key kids on their baseball team to soccer injuries.
Third, pride. The SE faithful know SE is dominant in track and baseball. There is no way they would allow their kids to enter a program where they would have a much less chance of winning. This would include the thought that if they continued to share a program with FDH many of the new SE kids would ride the bench or play JV and not be able to beat out the FDH kids already in the program.
Good luck at state SE. You got it right by sticking to the oval. The soccer field is not in your best interest.
