HNAC alum, Jack Kiser having a great 1st half for Notre Dame vs. USF. 

I never saw a breakdown of the Knox Judson game from last week. Can anyone speak on how that went? Looked like a defensive battle from the score.

Knox.    Just saying.  

Should be another great game with Pioneer this year. Hopefully the twins are healthy by then. Addai has had a banged up ankle and has been limited since week one and Ezra got his rolled up on last week at the start of the second half against new haven.

Chesterton is 6A in enrollment only. But still impressive for Pioneer!

Isn’t enrollment what defines class primarily??

it's not the number of kids in quarantine.  It's the fact we didn't get to practice for 10 days.  Don't talk about things when you don't know all the facts!!

You must be new here...

Both Garrett (3A) and Leo (4A) became available with Angola and DeKalb cancelling the next two weeks for quarantine after a DeKalb player tested postive. Unfortunaley for the HNAC teams looking for opponents, I would bet/guess Garret and Leo might end up playing each other this week instead. Garret could have been a good replacement opponent for either Triton or LaVille IMO.

Pioneer is currently in talk with Heritage Christian to replace Laville week 3.

Watching some highlights on YouTube and it looks like multiple formations on offense all from the gun.  They have 6’6” WR Warren who is pretty athletic and fast for his size.  Not sure what they run on defense.  

They are a spread team, primarily pass the ball. Warren graduated last year.

250 for home stands and 250 for the visitors. As far as I am aware no tickets will be sold at the gate for varsity games, but I'm not sure how JV will work?

Yeah, but when was it taken? 

I biked the Panhandle Pathway on Saturday.

The picture was taken around 8/14/2020. The maintenance staff has done a pretty good job overall keeping up with it. What you cant see in the picture is the trail of dead grass spots where it is bare dirt from mole runs all along the visitor sideline. Losing in the first round of sectionals last year really helped the maintenance staff get a head start on the field this off season 🙂

How long is the grass on the field at Royal Center? 😉 Could have a significant effect on the outcome.

Also, I agree depth will be a big issue ... especially since the forecast calls for it to be very warm.

Some people call The Pit the best field in Royal Center, some call it the Taj Mahal of the west...

But yes, the grass will probably be long, not to slow Chesterton down, just because our field is what the rest of the state calls awful.

I don't know if Maconaquah/Cass is cancelled due to Maconaquah suspended sports through 27th... Wouldn't mind seeing Cass/Triton play. 

I believe Cass picked up South Adams for week 2.

BREAK OUT THE GOATS 

Pioneer has installed new obstacles this season with the addition of mole runs. Sadly, this is not sarcasm. There are bare dirt spots (earlier than normal this year) from moles allowed to run rampant on the visitor sideline. During our self scrimmage this season we could only use half of the field because a mole trap was never removed by our maintenance staff.

Based on protocol I'd say they would have to cancel week 2 with the 14 day quarantine. Was surprised to hear they cancelled against Pioneer. Any idea who Pioneer will try and pick up?  

No idea as of yet. I was really looking forward to the Laville Pioneer matchup this year. Would have been a slugfest. Guess we'll have to hope for a sectional matchup...

How is Cass looking this year? I know they graduated a fair amount. Not sure what they had returning. 

They are young, but they have Clay Mannering on as head coach who has been coaching at the college level for a few years. Clay also has a hall of fame coach roaming the sidelines in his father Scott. Cass will be well coached and ready to play every Friday.

That's a bummer. Such a good rivalry game. 

LaVille also cancelled their week 3 game against Pioneer. Noticed on Harrell's site their week 2 game is still scheduled. Surely they are cancelled week 2 as well correct?

Pioneer plays Chesterton week 2
