Yeah, noticed it earlier but bit my tongue, it’s not the inherent hypocrisy that bothers me quite so much as the complete lack of self-awareness it takes to actually boast about it.

Found it.

There’s another thread for this....actually 3 others.... I won’t be as blunt as Stax.

One was and declined. Can’t speak as to the other.

Rodenberg at Roncalli has won 2 Ohio State Championships (Moeller) and 1 Kentucky State Championship (Covington Catholic) so I am taking it as a given that he will know how to deal with the kid’s emotions. BTW, is anyone aware of another coach that has done something like this in multiple states?

Well, 3 Circle City teams at LOS (Covenant Christian, Chatard and Roncalli). It does look like Heritage Christian played the closest to WeBo but, unfortunately, weren’t able to pull off the Regional win. I think the last time a conference put 3 teams in LOS was the NIC in 2011 (St.Joe, SB Washington and Penn) but, unfortunately, none won. I haven’t checked, but 3 teams at LOS sounds like something the Hoosier Conference, the SAC and the SIAC may have done in the past as well. How many, if any, CCC teams walk out with a victory? Curious, what is the most championships a single conference has won in a year?

Is that what he has been doing? Dropped the Star several years ago.

Just better than Merrillville D1 players, apparently.

They bumped up the very first year of the SF when you needed 4 points to stay up. Then the IHSAA put them in the sectional with Roncalli (which they won the first year) and they then lost to New Pal in Regional (actually closely contested until late 4th Quarter) at the start of New Pal’s run up to 5A. The next year they lost to Roncalli in Sectional after beating them in the regular season. They fell 3 points short. Now it only takes 2 points.

Had to look that up....I have very much lived in a bubble, apparently.

Indy Northwest Space Pioneers (now closed)

Perfect.

Looks like he did since he is the only one.....

Ouch......that’s known all the way up in the Region?

Zack Martin....

Total aside, but a little related, for anyone who might enjoy historic fiction I’d suggest you give the late David Gemmell’s “Troy” trilogy a look - starting with “Troy: The Lord of the Silver Bow”. Most enjoyable historic fiction series I have ever read....and I’ve read a bit.

Delphi Oracles.....just how “Classic” is that.

I knew what play you were referencing before I even linked to it. It was actually Chatard's only penalty of the game, I believe. No foul (at least in my viewing) but I had to replay it to catch it so I absolutely understand why the flag was thrown. Ironically, knowing how the kid plays, I was surprised that it was him....then upon rewatching it I realized he didn't - he was pushed. That was the same crew as last year and I thought they did a great job both years. Fortunately, the call ended up having no effect on the game.

Both CC and Heritage Christian are members of the Circle City Conference and actively compete in every conference sport excepting football.

Next year it will be Roncalli and Chatard.

I mentioned this elsewhere but will repeat it. The WHME-46 team that did the game last night are THE BEST. I’ve watched a lot of HS football over the years from all over the state but, outside of the State Championship productions, no one does nearly as great a job broadcasting HS football as the WHME-46 team. A really professional broadcast.

Bo was in the booth for them last year because one of the broadcast trio was ailing last season. I’ve seen 3 broadcasts by WHME-46 these last 2 years. I’ve not seen any other HS sports broadcasts in Indiana (outside of the State Championship games) that comes anywhere CLOSE to what WHME does. They are pros. The IHSAA would do well to have them do at least one of the State Championship games.

You could measure the shift of Roncalli fortunes by simply watching the annual CYO results (with the exception of the 2 years prior to this year). The Archdiocese school’s outcomes are almost always directly tied to historic CYO outcomes.

Scifres has only been gone 4 years (including this year) out of those last 15 years Grandpa B referenced. They actually have had excellent teams 2 of those 4 years he’s been gone. Your point doesn’t follow....but then, when does it ever?

Might want to keep that thought on the down-low, the loonies over on Facebook already have the pitchforks and torches out and are marching in the streets about it.
