    Culver at Knox- Knox Football Team

    LaVille at Pioneer- Panthers

    North Newton at North Judson-San Pierre- Jays

    North White at Winamac- Warriors

    Triton at Caston- Trojans

    What makes you think Pioneer even has a chance to play with LaVille, let alone actually beat them?  After last years beat down in the sectional final, those Pioneer boys don’t want any part of the Lancers.

    I don't know. Even if it's not I gotta think that just by pulling through with that non-throwing arm could be a little irritating. I don't want to sound like i'm an expert on the matter either. I don't have much experience with collarbone injuries. We had a running back that hurt his mid season and was back for the first round of sectionals, but everyone's body heals different and every position on the field relies on different parts of their body more than others.

    It also depends on the type of break.  If it’s a fracture, he might be back 6-8 weeks, but if it is broken all the way through, may need surgery and done for the year.  I’ve seen both scenarios.

    I've said it before, depth is important! I think we all agree it makes it less distracting when there is a #2 capable to step in.

    Think your point of covid issue v. Triton shows us merit in the depth case as you say that LaVille had to use JV players to step in. Good for those guys that stepped up and helped the team when the team needed them.

    I hope LaVille stays healthy all season so we'll see if your projection holds true!

    One thing I’ve been concerned about was the fact that LV hasn’t been able to field a JV schedule for several years.  Was worried it would affect their depth, but like you mentioned, after a lot of those young kids got to play quality mins against Triton, they played some valuable time the rest of the way and into the off season, which is now paying off.  But would definitely like to see the numbers increase to get a JV team playing on a consistent basis.

    Ok, so what I am reading indicates that the expectation is that North Judson would be LaVille's lone challenger this season.

    To be honest, I find that hard to believe.  Bremen was a one score game twice, John Glenn was a one score game. Triton was a one score game in overtime and Knox was a one point game.  They split the season with Pioneer, even though they dominated the Panthers in the sectional.

    Hope the team stays healthy all season so we can see how they play with higher expectations and legit chance to sweep the regular season and win a conference championship!

    LaVille lost 1 senior and he did not start on either side of the ball.  All 22 starters are back, they are bigger, stronger, in better shape than last year, and this this is a group who gave up an average of 6.7 points a game.  The offense is getting a boost, former John Glenn head coach Justin Bogunia is the new offensive coordinator, and Coach Hostrawser’s defense scheme is on point every game.  They also have more depth, which is something they haven’t had in the past.   Bremen lost a lot of key players, the Triton game last year was close because LV basically played with a JV roster due to covid issues.  Pioneer, Glenn and Knox both lost key players.  That is why I feel like NJ will have the best shot.  I am sticking to my prediction, undefeated going into the sectional matchup against Andrean.  So we shall see…

    So if you look at LaVille's schedule, based on both teams playing healthy each week of the regular season, who do you see as LaVille's top four opponents? 

    Just curious  what your thoughts are.

    If a team can pass, that is where my concern is.  LV’s defense statistical against the run was lights out last year.  They have 11 returners back from that defense, plus they actually have some depth this year.  They are bigger, stronger and looked to be much better conditioned.   As far as opponents, NJ will challenge them for the top spot.  I don’t think any team will be able to run against this D with much success, and definitely don’t think any team on the schedule will be able to score enough by running to beat them.  They gave up a TD a game last season, so they are going to be tough to beat.

    PH is one of the worst programs in the state. They haven't had a winning season since before 1994, which is as far back as John Harrell's site goes. They also haven't even had a .500 season since 2007. They were 4-7 last season, which was their best record since 2013. I wouldn't start making predictions based solely on a scrimmage against a struggling program.

    Does anyone know if the large Amish population in that area has effected the PH program?

     

    Yeah, your right, I will say 2 TD’s.

    Good goals, shouldn’t that be the goal every year?

    FWIW Friend has seen Andrean twice this summer (his words) “nobody is touching Andrean in 2A, they are loaded. Watched them dismantle Valpo without Drayk Bowen playing” 

    Yes, that’s why said, anything less than a conference championship and another shot at Andrean would be considered a failure.  Only takes one game to upset a team.  In a 5-7 game series, probably not a chance of betting Andrean, but they want their one shot!
