It really doesn't make sense to talk about it now, the season for the camels is over. Things don't appear to be changing in the near future, word is alot of good players won't come out for the team.

Guess it depends of what you consider good and if they really want to play.

Why would "good" players chose not to come out for the team? They've been pretty good lately, have very nice facilities, and you only get one go-around in high school!! Makes no sense to me??

I agree BG, makes no sense to me either.

True they have been pretty good lately. Potential hasn't been met the last few years' why waste all that time and effort when you know you won't be put in the best possible position to succeed. Some players would rather get a job and succeed that way.

Yeah that makes sense. Succeed in a job that pays $8 bucks an hour when you have the rest of your life to work and never play high school baseball again...good thinking. If you think its a waste of time it probably is if thats the attitude and effort they are going to put into it.

This is funny stuff. Issues about a freshman player is the problem?! Then underachievment according to the brossart athletic leader. Perhaps most of it has to do with the fact that prima donna "select" athletes are not really select when you get right down to it, or they fail to develop or they fail to work. Doesn't matter. A couple of years ago, CCHS was in the region final with a group of underachieving talent and pressed hard on Harrison in the final before losing. My bet on the Camels over the coming years will be a good payoff.

If I remember correctly that was a shut-out that was never in doubt.

It was 2005, Harrison won 4-0 in the final.

I've no idea what you're discussing when you mention a "freshman player", and am not certain if you're referencing me when you say "the Brossart athletic leader"; but since I was the one who mentioned "underachieving", I'll at least clarify my position.

 

If you'll READ my posts you'll see I pointed to CC's baseball program as being a bright spot athletically for the Camels of late, and agreed with Old Soda, as did a couple other BB fans, regarding the success of that program of late. My reference was in response to the thread topic (which I thought was the object of these boards) and meant as a general comment on "what's going on with CCHS". Do I feel that on the whole their athletics "underachieve"--Absolutely!! I think you'll find many of your own supporters who agree wholeheartedly!!

 

Why--You're probably in a better position to comment on that topic than me; so I'll allow you and others to do so if you'd care. Do I care? Not really, as it often benefits some programs I support; but I do feel for some of the kids I know which are involved, and their disappointments. The facts are that Campbell is the largest school in the 10th region per the KHSAA numbers, and frequently has very good to dominent middle school and freshman/JV teams, which seldom translates to Varsity success?? Again Why--I've got my ideas, but I'll let Shadow & company tackle that one??

This is a good place, to end this thread.
