I agree, 12 seniors can be a really good thing and a really bad thing. Many of the underclassman are active players for Powell. Losing twelve seniors will hurt them but with the new coach and determination from the players they should be ok.

Not entirely, with seniors comes leadership, and many of the players at Powell have experience...Lee co. is another team with many seniors, Lee co. was a top 5 team last year as well and should be watched in the region...

 

 

If you've got 11 or 12 seniors leading, who is left to do the following? I would also imagine the 10th or 11th senior probably won't be happy sitting on the bench all year either.

Many of the underclassman are active players for Powell.

 

 

That isn't possible with 11 or 12 seniors. You couldn't have MANY underclassmen.

You seem to know what you're talking about, also sound somewhat familiar with Powell... or maybe don't like them...a group of seniors never hurts a team, especially if they can all play...playing time should'nt be an option if they work hard every play, everyone needs a break.

powell seems to have a pretty good team this year :ylsuper: who are the seniors that you all speak of?

I know a few of them...Romans, Johnson, Merriman, Skidmore, Pelfrey, Dennis, Sebey, there's 4 or 5 more...

Lee co, also has a great Senior Class in Brandenburg, Fetters, Justin and Dustin Liesagang, couple more

Estill has Berryman, Sewell

Owsley - Neeley and Congleton

Yes it is. Powell had 11 juniors last year. If they all return it should make for some competitive practices and a decent team to get up and down the floor in Kyle Lively's style of play.

We aren't speaking the same language.

 

If you have 11 seniors on a 15-man varsity roster how can you have MANY underclassmen?

Theres a Freshmen team, and a JV team...that sounds like MANY underclassmen to me...atleast 15-20 other players...

I'm pretty sure that last season the JV team all juniors and one sophomore.

Exactly, only 7 players played varsity only, the others played JV, you must feel threatened by this, I'm sorry, that leaves room on the Jv team for Many underclassmen...not on the varsity

Yes, experience is experience no matter what level you play on, varsity or jv. Most of the underclassman play jv for powell. They should be ready to step up when the time comes.

There's just a LITTLE difference in varsity experience and playing on the freshmen team.

This could be the previous coach's fault...you need to have experience in order to win...which means playing everyone, even for 10 seconds.

You aren't going to have any experienced players in 08 if you keep 11 seniors in 07.
