8-man

[Gipper]

South Newton is getting the hang of it.  So far, the Rebels are 3-2 this season and annihilated Danville Schlarman 38-0 for Homecoming.  Although it’s not tackle football in its purest form, they’re having fun out there, and that’s what really matters.

Heard that Wabash cancelled it's 11-man game against county rival Northfield and instead will host Elwood in an 8-man game on 9/25.  Northfield now travels two hours south (with diesel prices around $7) to play Indianapolis Scecina at Roncalli's field.

What a freaking mess.

I'm happy the kids get the chance to play the sport of football.  Unfortunately diesel prices aren't the fault of 15-18 yr olds.

In this age of scarcity and rising unaffordability school administrators really need to look at the costs of their extracurricular programs.  And that includes transportation costs, which are no longer relatively trivial.

"Unfortunately"?  So you are saying you believe rising diesel prices should be the fault of 15-18 year olds?

No.  it was a snarky response to a snarky comment.  Should have just stuck to "I'm happy the kids get the chance to play the sport of football."
