  1. East Noble has an Assistant AD--Brandon Durnell, the varsity basketball coach. They also have an athletic secretary. They probably could have allowed Amstutz to continue to serve in both roles if that was desired at the corporation level.
  2. I never thought we'd get to the point where late 90s/early-mid 00s Maconaquah football would derail a thread, yet here we are. I've never been more proud. The Otto Brothers (and their dad/uncle) would probably be considered one of the first families of Maconaquah sports, up there with Betzners, Maples, and Hevezis.
  3. I think even PG4 would concede that! Now combo football/basketball/track/golf manager? Nobody will ever touch Phil in that regard...
  4. Braves Basketball is back, baby. I was at a boys/girls DH against Lewis Cass a few weeks ago and the place was full. Seating has been reduced a bit with some renovations over the last few years, but there were close to 3k in attendance that night. Felt like being in there in the mid/late 90s as a kid again. Josiah Ball may end up being the best player to come out of 256 E 800 S since Corey Burns in the late 90s. Probably has a higher upside than him, too.
  5. Keep 9 games. Take the top 32 teams in all classes, split it N/S and seed them. The rest get put into regional pods and based on their record/Sagarin/whatever get a 10th game against an evenly matched opponent. That becomes their "bowl game." You want to talk about equity for the athletes--a system like this gives probably twice as many young men a chance to end their career with a win as opposed to losing by six scores in the opening round of the Sectional.
  6. ADM = Average Daily Membership. Fancy DOE jargon for the student count.
  7. Manchester shocks the world on Friday night! Last TRC team left in the tournament!
  8. Unfortunately it’s not just a football issue. Their basketball program is equally undisciplined.
  9. I think Rochester wins, but my hope is that they not only win, but humiliate that program who thought they were all of a sudden too good for the TRC.
  10. Lol no, we aren’t. I was pretty impressed with Triton. We’ve got a lot of rebuilding to do at Manchester.
  11. Oak Hill had a caveat that the entire Grant 4 get an invite. Sort of a tough ask, but totally get them wanting to stick with their county cohort. Eastern was a name I’d also heard. Not sure how far down the road that went, but certainly would be desirable if you’re one of the southern TRC schools. Maybe adding Eastern is enough to entice Oak Hill?? Eastern left the MIC due to wanting to be a big fish. I think their athletic programs would compete in the TRC, but maybe not at the championship caliber they’ve become accustomed to in the HHC.
  12. Do you mean professional educators like the Valley administrators who were intent on not upholding the bylaws to which they had signed and agreed? Should the Valley professional educators have handled this in a way that didn’t have any negative implications on their student athletes? Or is it the job of the rest of the schools in the conference to do what is best for the Valley student athletes?
  13. I'll look into your first question, but in regard to your second I think that answer would be a resounding NO. The RRC (the middle level version of the TRC, in which all schools participate) does a really good job in terms of scheduling. There may be a few programs with low numbers...but for the most part teams are fielding full teams in all of the main sports.
