With the consolidation of Prairie Valley and SE Webster Grand, does anyone know how the team is looking?
 
don't know much about the players, but they do have a legitimate schedule in front of them playing 2 teams that were in the state finals last year.
 
I think will make playoffs at 5-4 with 2 losses in dist.,carrol kuemp,clarinda and 2 non-con. in manson and st. eds.Dont know anything about southwestern teams so this is just a wild guess?From what I have heard,we only lost 3 starters on last years team but that was in class A. As for the 2 schools together SEWG was not going to play varsity the next 2 yrs so I don't think there will be to many or no SEWG kids playing much so it will be still P>V. BUT PLAYING @ CLASSES UP!
 
They'll need to find a QB, but other than that, the consolidation really helped shore up some areas. Prairie Valley lost their top two rushers and their leading tackler, but picked up Tristan Ewing and Dan Eslick. Ewing ran for over 1,100 yards as a freshman for SE Webster and Eslick racked up 120 tackles and 10.5 TFL last year.
 
THANKS TM. Was hoping there was some hidden gems from SEWG. Should be a fun year again and only 8 days 3 hrs til kickoff!
 
Someone should really look into the yards the kid picked up from SEW. They won 2 games against poor teams, and were blown out in the rest. Most of the kids yards came against 2-3rd string kids. Yeah congrats on 1000 yards, but don't read too much into it.
 
He was also basically playing behind a JV line so although the yards might be skewed a little bit...it's not that bad. Regardless of how he got the yards, that is impressive for a freshman.
 
That's a little optimistic considering they also play an East Sac team in district that smoked them week 1 last year (i think score was something like 58-6) and some others in district that are on the rise.
 
Also...and I freely admit I'm not 100% sure on this...but didn't Eslick transfer/open enroll/leave and go to Ogden?
 
DUTCHMEN You are correct on the east sac score but P.V. lost 14 seniors the year before so there were a lot of new faces that have never played varsity before. also P.V. switched QBs 2nd or 3rd game in and we played east sac the 1st week so I wouldn't read to much into that. Coach really got them to play together about week 4 and won out but lost to a very good hinton team at Hinton in 1st round of playoffs!

That, I couldn't tell you. I'm not familiar with that part of the state at all; just going off of last year's stats.
 
TM,

I'll give you a little advise....

With the number of kids moving around I wouldn't make an ASSumption on teams you know nothing about based solely on last year's stats.

That goes double when there is a rural consolidation with the new district covering a massive area. It's not uncommon at all for families in one of these types of consolidations to look at the map and decide to open enroll in a neighboring district because the school can often be much closer than the district they now live in.

Looking at a map I wouldn't be surprised if there were families in the SE corner of the district who decided to hook with Ogden.

The nondistrict matchup with SE could be a tough one. I would expect the Gaels to be looking to give a little satisfaction to their baseball mates.

He asked a question, and I gave him the best answer possible with the available information. Hell, I could live in the area and be pretty familiar with most of the teams, and still not have known whether a kid decided to transfer. This is a message board. So lighten up, Francis.
 
T M,

If you were taking a test and you applied your logic to a question you did not know the answer and "gave the best answer with the best information available" I would say you made a wise choice. If you're taking a test it is normally because you are required to take it for a class, your job, or some other reason. Normally people don't take tests just for fun.

Using your logic on a high school sport message board was not a wise choice. Their is no reason for you to "chime in" and answer the question when you don't have a clue what you are talking about and even if the statistics available that you think can make you appear to give a knowledgeable answer are even relevant. All you really did was publicly display your ignorance.

Statistics can assist and support a core knowledge you already have. They are however completely useless if you lack any of the core knowledge that can make them useful. In this case whether the athlete you are claiming can help a school (based on last years stats) is even still attending that school.

Kinda like ranking teams in the preseason based on a compilation of scores from last year using a different group of athletes.

If you would like to go around applying your "logic" on these boards please feel free to continue. I actually find humor in your public displays of ignorance.

BTW, I have many times been called a name that begins with an F but Francis isn't it :)

It's a high school sports message board, not a court of law. So I was wrong. Big freaking deal. Obviously, you were here to post more accurate information than was available to most people here. But it's not like it's ridiculous to think the kid wouldn't move/open enroll to a different district. If we were all limited to discussing teams/players that we know like the backs of our hands, we'd never talk about anything around here. I mean, I guess we can't just assume that Trevor Allen is still playing at Waukee, or that Christian Rozeboom is still at Sioux Center. In this day and age, we just can't know for sure, so best not assume.

But by all means, feel free to continue acting superior.

Should be very interesting to see what kind of product they put on the field Friday @ Manson. MNW was a big rival of Prairie Valley so that adds a little something extra. One thing Southeast Valley has going for them is they do have a pretty good coaching staff.
 
I agree! I think Manson will win but I hope it is close. Last year there lines dominated the game and that is one thing I know coach can not stand so we will see. Like I said earlier it took them 3-4 games to get there feet wet last year but I think he has the callender circled for this one!!
