I'm sure they will look at coaches/teams that have had successful turnarounds to this point in the new PAC...

Jasper senior point guard Brooke Nottingham scored her 1000 point last night in a win vs Evansville Reitz. Brooke was the 6th Lady Wildcat to accomplish this feat and joined her brother (Tyler "TD: Nottingham) to become the first brother/sister combo to accomplish this feat at Jasper. They are my niece and nephew so I'm a little proud this morning. https://duboiscountyherald.com/b/nottingham-reaches-1000-in-senior-night-win

I was trying to figure out who was the last Central athlete to come to NP.... Castle, Mater Dei, Gibson, Mt Vernon, Day School... all of those I can think of a kid but not Central.

@DaveMosbey Any chance you will do a write up about the OT game last night between HH and NP? I went and watched the Viking wrestlers at Tell City in the PAC duals and sounds like I missed two good games (JV also went into OT.) TIA

I think if you figure in usage you can get closer to quantifying the cost. Using it 20-30 times a year at a cost of say $200k (use this number because that is what we had spent to just grass maintenance over the previous 15 years) every 15 years on sod. Compared to using it hundreds of times a year for $750k every 12 years and supposedly the initial cost is much higher than the re-surface.

I believe Green Bay went to a Hybrid field that is natural grass reinforced with synthetic fibers. Bet that cost $$$

I think the ROI would be influenced by the situation as well, for example, North Posey had a water issue that had completely ruined the track. The whole field had to be destroyed to fix the problem, it was going to cost over $200,000 to have grass put back and $700,000 to have turf. Over the last 15 years we have spent over $200,000 to try to have a decent grass field and that doesn't include watering or mowing expenses. To keep damage down the PE classes didn't use it, the Varsity or JV didn't practice on it, the band was limited with their usage, and when we host relay for life we had to keep people off it. Now everyone gets to use it, the youth league, JR High, and High School teams all practice on it. Track team will use it (especially helpful for runners with fighting shine splints,) the baseball/softball teams will have access to use it during wet practices, the boys and girls soccer teams can have games on it (although so far they don't want too,) we can include the field into our relay for life event, and the PE classes spend more time on it than any sport! No doubt the initial expense is high and we don't know yet what we don't know about its upkeep, but I can tell you it sure looks nice. Many in our community are proud of it, and we are sure using it compared to the old grass field. I think it could become a community builder with our relay for life and some other activities we plan to use it for in the future. What schools are on their 3rd turf field?

The Cowboys should be considered for contraction, the league is watered down with too many teams and the Cowboys consistently under perform. Those players are being put into a situation that is obviously dangerous to their mental and physical health. Plus the league would be better without Jerry...

If you’re saying All-time then Reitz has to be up there. Think they have 11 state titles... 9 before the tournament I think...

Just hope one day those small schools will be able to compete or even challenge the big PAC schools...😞

Figured it was a typo...

*NP 2A That's a good looking schedule for GS! Not nearly SIAC good but pretty solid, hopefully this will enable you guys to compete... 😀

Danville's roster of 59 on MaxPreps includes freshmen

Vikings kick off the year with a big win over Boonville

Congratulations Patriots! Danville hung in but ultimately the better team prevailed.

Did you like your post so much you had to quote it?

I see Danville lost to some good teams but who have they beat? Tri-West the second time they played. Anyone else?

I was thinking you guys might start liking 4A

Could you do the same? Explain how I have an inferiority complex for posting that MD has won easily the two previous times these teams played? Which supported your statement that MD has a better program. How was it playing with my mind and I needed to chill? What type of help do I need? Where did your “are you a Jew” comment go? I was actually pulling for MD today as well as the Patriots

What?

Memorial has done a lot of traveling this postseason, about 24 miles total (48 round trip.)

Well 2 out of three ain’t bad... 2011 48-14, 2014 28-14

Can beat or Will beat?
