    Is there any detailed info on the scope of the work to be performed? The only thing I saw in a newspaper blurb was there was an issue with the concrete coatings that were applied a couple of years ago. I hope the Enlow turf is getting replaced as it has been 15 seasons. I suspect it will be because the turf at Reitz and Central was replaced in recent years. Did EVSC ever do anything about the lighting at Bowl? I was out of town for our game at the Bowl this year..

    I wish it were possible to restore the interior areas of Enlow accessible from the top of the home grandstand. They have been gated off for decades. 

    All I know it’s a paint issue, but there has to more to this.

    The more I look at their roster and who will be returning - along with a definite QB1 under center - I think Castle will be extremely tough next year. 

     

    Definitely will be in my Top 3 predictions, I believe that Soph QB they have could be QB1.

    The 3A "gauntlet" sectional - Heritage Hills, Memorial, Gibson Southern, Mater Dei, Southridge, Vincennes, Mt. Vernon, Princeton

     

    Every loves Sectional 32….I mean Sectional 30 now. Would be nice if they switched back over to S32, but I doubt it

    Just to be clear…based on the new reclassification rules and the new enrollment updates, this is what class each team will be in next season? 

    3A - Vincennes, Memorial, Mater Dei

    4A - Jasper, Central, Reitz, Bosse, Harrison

    5A - Castle, North

     

    Besides Mater Dei (Close to the 3A/2A cut), looks correct to me. Do you know when the sectional realignments come out?

    Does Coach Goebel remain as the longest tenured head coach in the SIAC?  Or has 40+ years patrolling the sidelines as an coordinator/HC come to an end? 

    I would hate for an unsuccessful two point conversion against 12(!) defenders to be his last play call as a coach. 

     

    I would say he will be coaching the sidelines once again unless you have info indicating otherwise

    RIP to Memorial’s time in sectional 24.

    13-1 with 4 sectional titles over 5 years was not a bad run. 

    4A postseason in 5 years:

    17-4

    4 Sectional Championships

    2 Regional Championships

    1 Semi-State Championship 

    1 State Championship 

    Not too shabby and was just a couple of plays away from playing in a second 4A State Game in 2021 in the SS

    Memorial should have its best team since the 2017-2019 era. It will be very interesting to see how the IHSAA sets up the 3A sectionals down here. 

     Mooresville and Martinsville are pretty good 4A programs who are probably both itching to see what they can do without EC standing in their way. 

    I believe Mooresville got pushed to sectional 22, but I’m guessing the IHSAA will do more re arranging the Sectionals and what not. But yes, the Regional matchup should be intriguing this year.

    This may also be the type of team that loses a few games in the regular season but then gets on a roll in the playoffs once they figure some things out.

    I agree, Sectional 24 will be quite interesting now with Memorial currently back down in 3A. I’m guessing Reitz/Jasper will be the ones that are favored in that, since idk who BNL loses or returns. Whoever wins it could have a legit shot making it to Semi-State, since EC moved up to 5A.

    I think they will be capable of it. They do lose a lot of key players who started for 3 years, which is not easy to replace. But I think they return just enough and have talent coming up that they will still be good. I think there is a good chance Memorial takes the crown, especially if they have Fisher. However, Reitz has won 18 straight conference games and is top dog until proven otherwise.

    WAY too early 2024 power rankings 😆

    1. Reitz

    2. Memorial

    3. North

    4. Jasper

    5. Mater Dei

    6. Castle

    7. Vincennes

    8. Bosse

    9. Harrison

    10. Central

    Pretty much a short preview, Memorial and North will definitely be up there since they return 14+ starters. Reitz does take a hit losing a lot offensively, but returns a few on defense. Jasper is Jasper. I think Mater Dei will see more improvement this season. Castle’s offense should be great again returning nearly all of their WRs and McCool. The storyline for Vincennes is who will replace Hunt, but returning Mccrary is huge for the Alices. Losing Wagner is a massive hit for Bosse, no idea who they turn to now offensively. Might be another long season for Harrison and Central.

    Of course there will be more discussions over the next few months, but I think those should be a good start for now. 

    Returning starter percentages will be posted in a couple of weeks. And will be updated once Calpreps releases their 2024 Preview in the summer.
