Last 20 years........ 1 regional title, 1 semistate title. Other than those 2 years..... no sectional titles. I guess they fail a lot.

Thing of beauty

I love the drive they just completed to basically ice it…

Well. That first drive of the 2nd half by the packers looked quite rhythmic.

Once again, let's talk about body of work. Up until this year, Harbaugh had never beaten Ohio State or made the playoffs. Somehow that equates to him being a poor football coach. Earlier this year sometime, I put together a topic discussing the who the top football program in the country were over the last five years. Surprisingly, and quietly, Michigan graced a ranking of 6, 7, or 8 I believe. Anyway, they were in the Top 10, which is pretty damn good. It just goes to show you that the only thing fans seem to measure Michigan by is their ability to beat Ohio State and make the playoffs. That's a pretty high standard. Those affiliated with Michigan should be flattered.

Warren Central had a female kicker on the team. She made history for the Warriors this past season. Jaci made most of the PATs and played soccer as well.

We have a girl player at South Decatur. She is an outside LB and RB. She earned her way on special teams last year (2020) and recovered an onside kick to seal the victory vs Springs Valley. She got some reps for us this year and will be back again for 2022.

Indian creek had JV one female kicker and one playing DB/WR. Both played very well.

Just about a perfect football game. Running the damn ball and controlling the clock. What the game was meant to be. And the fact that Navy won makes it that much sweeter.

Yeah. A shame they are in the same class as MV…co-winners?

I know that these often focus on folks that get to LOS, but I wanted to focus on some of the ones that weren't as visible and would certainly miss consideration based on more conventional methods. These aren't likely COY in the eyes of the state, but in the eyes of their communities, schools, and players the deserve a bit of recognition. Brad Bevis at South Newton - The Rebels were 1-45 for the last five seasons. This season they finished 5-5. Plenty more road to cover, but certainly a good season to build on after some handfuls of dirt were surely ready to throw on the "contraction coffin." Blake Betzner at Carroll (Flora) - Carroll hasn't seen a sectional title since 2003. To put that in context, Frankton and Lapel were still 1A back then. In his first season at Carroll, Betzner took the Cougars to a 9-4 and their first sectional title in just under a couple of decades. Andrew Tetheroh at Tri - First trip to semi-state in more than two and a half decades. Tri has typically not been a name on the radar screen in post-season, but this season they got there. Brett Jennings at Whiting - When Cain left Whiting, the program went on much harder times; especially with a mere four-game season in 2020. They were 3-11 in the last two seasons and, while 5-7, this year's finishing record, isn't great, the Oiler's scrapped their way to a sectional title showdown with Andrean. Rob Gibson at Owen Valley - OV was 12-39 over the last five seasons and hadn't seen a sectional final in more than two and a half decades. Gibson led OV to a sectional title and a 10-2 season record. I'm sure that's not all of them. Anyone else have any others?

I agree. I would even say 3A Gibson Southern finally got over the proverbial “hump” Must have been real tough choosing the coaches of the year this year 😂

These types of awards always amuse me. Of course I’m going to come across too many of you as a “hater”, but come on. Other than Mt. Vernon, these coaches all did was was expected of them coming into the season. Gimme Mason at Eastside in 2A. What that team did was phenomenal.

We have a common friend that is a Packers fan though. I would love to go, but with finals this coming week, I don’t want to use a day
