The Centurions (7-0) are riding high on the heels of a huge win in the latest chapter of their annual war with DeSales. Don't look for a letdown against Shawnee. The Golden Eagles are nursing a 42 game losing streak.

CAL’s JV team would win this one.

CAL’s JV team would win this one.

 

Freshman team would win.

I wouldn't take a great deal of pride in the disparity between the two programs.

There are some on here who remember a time when CAL did not strike fear into opponents.

No one takes pride in this matchup Mr. Seymour. It is similar to Trinity v J-town, Mayfield v. any team in the central time zone, St. X v. Fairdale. I could go on. From what I understand Shawnee is moving to 1-A next year and will no longer be in the same district with CAL and Desales, a much needed change. It is a heck lot more difficult to suit up for Shawnee than it is for the CAL, Desales, Trinity, Mayfield and the St. X's of the world. Hopefully, these young men can take something positive from their football experience into life.

Don’t quite understand where this comment even came from. No body is bragging or even close. Shawnee is a game CAL has to play. They go into the game every year not wanting to get hurt or hurt the other team. The parents at CAL cheer when Shawnee makes a good play. CAL’s cheerleaders have went to the visitor stands in the past. Nothing but goodwill here. I think your comment is misdirected and off base. I have a lot of respect for the players sticking it out at Shawnee and the coaches that are ther trying to reestablish a program. There are some athletes on that team, but just not enough to make a difference.

I would love to see a resurgence in Shawnee’s program. They used to have a good program back in the day.

I think he was talking about the posters claiming CAL's JV or even Freshman would win. However likely, it is unfortunate and unnecessary to say. I agree that CAL fans are some of the best and don't rub it in the Shawnee faces. Nothing wrong with a game to get younger guys reps and rest for starters.

CAL 56-0.

Really?? Geez. Some people can’t read.

I apologize.

I perhaps misread the author's intent.

I could not otherwise fathom why someone would assert that a JV or Frosh team would prevail over the Varsity of another program who valiantly struggles.

WE all know it is a required game.

The meaning of then post(s) was obviously lost on me.

I hope this doesn't mean that we're not friends anymore.
