WRC Sectional Round 1

Assuming Attica beats FC as expected, NV would host if South Putnam beats Riverton Parke in round 1. PH would host if Riverton Parke beats South Putnam in round 1. -
I'm in.

I thought I'd already seen that team a couple times in the past, but I was wrong. A lot of football to be played yet. -

Leave Your Drones at Home for the Tourney
kdets89 replied to Bobref's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I admit, I don't know the justification for the policy. I assumed it was either 1) safety concerns, or 2) ensuring compliance with FAA regulations (no flying over groups, no flying over sporting events/stadiums). I just wouldn't want to be an FAA-licensed hobbyist told that I couldn't capture video for my school in a compliant manner just because I wasn't an IHSAA broadcast partner. Now, the exemption may be granted for anyone holding an FAA license, but I'm skeptical. -

The inclusion of #3 undermines the justification for #1 & #2. -

looking for new end zone cam

Most systems come in at or around $5k. If you can budget for that, I'd definitely go with the Hi-Pod. The mechanical tilt/pan is an advantage over systems that use the Bescor electric tilt-pan head (several others). You simply can't move left/right fast enough on plays 20 yds and closer to the EZ camera using an electric tilt/pan. The mechanical tilt/pan also means you'll need less external battery power (which is required at most fields). Whichever you choose, you'll want to make sure you have the same staff operating it throughout the season. None of these systems are plug-and-play. Even the most expensive systems have cable issues, because you're still relying on a consumer camera with consumer-quality cable inputs. As for Hudl Sideline, Indy Lutheran is using it for the first time this season. It's a great solution, but reliability is an issue. The system is based on off-the-shelf components better suited for a stationary entertainment center than being lugged out each week to a football field. We've learned the hard way that every plug and port needs to be secured with a velcro strap. This includes all the power connections (wall-warts plugged into an extension cord in each case). Every HDMI cable should be secured with a velcro strap when plugged in (both at the camera and inside the cases). You'll want to buy a second AC battery pack for the pressbox case (similar to what comes in the EZ case), as Hudl seems to assume that every pressbox has power available on the roof. As long as nothing comes unplugged after you're up and running, it works pretty well. -

Triton Central 14 Lutheran 28 Final -
Franklin Community used one during a 7v7/scrimmage this past summer. Great angle. When behind the offense, it's similar to the Madden video game view than an end zone camera. Lutheran gets the same angle for all summer 7v7/scrimmages using a camera mounted on a 16' swimming pool pole. Aside from the safety regulations (which make drones a non-starter for football), the power requirements would make them cost prohibitive. Top-end consumer drones have a max flight time of about 15 minutes per battery pack. You'd need somewhere between 6-8 battery packs in order to capture a game. This just isn't practical.

Most "Dwenger" post I've seen all year. Let the season begin! -
Pretty sure that benefit only applies to the larger schools. Luers & Concordia certainly don't need non-conference games to "better" prepare them for the 3A tourney. If this happens, I'd love to see a home/home between Concordia and Indy Lutheran. It's time.

I hadn't heard that. If he stays for another semester, it would be great for the offense. As a your-year student, I'd be surprised if he made the choice to stay for another football season. The transfer players faced the loss of credits, so another semester for Ike made the medical waiver a no-brainer. I assume Oliver has the choice to graduate this spring. That could be an expensive year of football.

Little Giants have to be considered a front-runner for the NCAC. Despite losing some key players to graduation, they've got a solid core returning in all three phases. Nearly the entire DL/DB corps from a year ago will return. This defense could be scary-good next season. Linebackers graduate some key players, but a solid core will return lead by Brandon Yeagy (Sr) and Jackson Garrett (Jr). Running game will feature two stud backs, with depth. Isaac Avant (Sr), Ike James (Jr - medical waiver for missed 2018 season) each have the potential to gain 1,000 yards, if they stay healthy. If there are any carries left over, Micah Walker (Jr) and Mason Durrett (So) made the best of 4th quarter opportunities last fall. O-Line will return half of the starters, and can draw from Jr/Sr depth to fill the gaps. After a great first game, passing efficiency struggled in key games last year. QB Jake Reid (Sr) and the new receiver corps will need to use spring ball to get on the same page. RaShawn Jones (Sr) will be back, but won't be available for spring ball due to track. Reid-to-Jones could be the best deep threat in the conference, but timing will have to be better. The rest of the conference could shake out the same as last season, with some key changes. Denison graduates a lot of 4-year starters from last year's playoff team, and could be replaced by Wooster as the team to compete with Wabash/Witt. Depauw needs to decide that Chase Andries is their starting QB, and hope they can stop anyone on defense. Allegheny had been an improving program, but will have to bring in a new head coach without losing stride in order compete with the top half of the conference. Looking forward to next season! Hoping to see Wabash back in the playoffs. I'd like to see this team make it to a 2nd/3rd round match-up in Alliance. I think they'd give the Purple Raiders a better game than Denison did a couple months ago.
