Lol why does anyone comment? Weird question. Again.. just a topic about turf.
I'm not talking about what tax my dollars buy me and try to pretend like the spending done by schools, on their own students, is any sort of societal problem. It's laughable.
These conversations have to get old for some of you, don't they?
For sure a different category then the rest. Cathedral, Ev Memorial, Ev Mater Dei, SB Wash, Ritter, Boone Grove, Scecina, Cov Christian, FW Snider. Those are the schools I have as not having their own field.
There are no 6As without turf. FW Carroll was the last one.
As mentioned Castle, Mishawaka, FW NS, Concord, and the two TH HS in 5A don't have turf.
I also have Cathedral and FW Snider as the schools in these classes that don't have their own field. I did a breakdown off all the teams with turf and have kept that graph for about 4 years now and have updated it. When they come out with the new sectionals I will update it and check again. We are nearing 50% of the state as having turf.
lol... play the Indy 6A regional....... in Indy? What's so hard about that? Why would the 6A regional be in the South? makes zero sense. Heaven forbid ANYONE in Indy ever have to drive anywhere? Good grief. I have zero sympathy if your 30 min drive had to be 45 mins. Zero.
Find the nicest stadium on the southside of Indy that's neutral site and play it there. We drive 2.5 hours for a regional game and have drive that far for a sectional, as well, multiple times.
We have neutral sites in basketball, baseball, and volleyball.... I would like to see it attempted in football. I think they do that in college too right?
NO!!!! We HATE innovative ideas!!!! 😂
The more and more we go from our turf to grass.. just isn't close. Turf you literally always know what you're getting, and basically don't have to worry about any sort of slick surface.
Last year in the sectional it poured for a good 2 hours round 1.. we waited it out, started at like 930.... it was as if it didn't rain at all. I can't of an advantage for grass. I'm also a guy that loved the rain and mud.. loved. I'm glad we've found something better though.
Yep. Just request access to my document and it will show you the whole state broken down by sectional.
I had to get a new username btw. Did everything I could to login to the old one. Wouldn't work.
Have you not been paying attention?
Feeder system is legit, mostly really good coaches coaching those teams, Sturgeon takes a back seat to no one, and they've produced two D1 kids recently.
Yeah.. a top tier basketball program.
Outside of Bloom S, in the 812, there's no one that has a better one.
