The latest blog from a retired high school teacher and coach. I am proud to be part of one of the greatest professional fraternities in America. Hoping you connect and enjoy this blog. https://www.ronglodich.com/author-blog/the-long-game

Figured someone would have posted about this already. But this absolutely one of the coolest field designs in the state. Hats off to the Speedway folks that incorporated the IMS logo and the "yard of bricks" for the 50 yard line. Great job over there on the west side.

Coach Seiss is fantastic, and an absolute benefit to IN HS Football. I would not ever say anything disparaging about the things he has brought to the "game". This also goes with Coach Busea at Crown Point! These are programs that are "Region based" and on the cusp of breaking out towards a State Finals... If not a State Championship in the ensuing years. Anyone who is a Northerner would love for a Championship in the top 2 Classes to head beyond US24 (Fort Wayne also) .... Let's be honest. As an official, I don't care who wins. As a fan, I moved and live above US24. I delve into the Indy Area on a frequent basis to officiate. I just want and need the programs in the "North" to show on a consistent basis, that they are capable of competing at the highest of levels within IN HS Football. In all actuality, It kind of harkens to the SEC/Big 10 issues of the past 10+ years. At this point the Big 10 has figured things out, and are now absolutely on par...if not better than the SEC. I can easily see that happening within IN HS Football soon.

Could be a path for more women to become officials.

There’s an awful lot to admire about the Merrillville program. It’s unfortunate that some people can’t see past a single deranged Pirate fan and appreciate all the accomplishments of Coach Seiss and his staff. They’ve done a great job.
