Heard threw the grape vine that the Bracken AD thinks Bracken and St Pat play each other to much, and dropped them from the yearly X-mas tourney. Is this a little to much control for a AD and I believe 3 of those couldnt have been prevented, They were tournaments, they happen to play each other in. Maybe I'm thinking wrong, These are 2 great rivals. Need your thoughts please:banana:

I'm pretty sure this is a true fact. I was hoping it wouldn't come to this. I know St. Patrick enjoys playing in this tournament. St. Patrick has played in every christmas tourney at bchs since it began. In a normal year, a team wouldn't play each other so many times but it just worked out that way this season. They drawed each other in the Class a and the district, and it was their own fault in the christmas tourney by putting the Saints and Bracken in the same pool. I really don't understand was the people at Bracken have against St. Patrick and most imprtantly Coach Hinson.:idunno:

Bracken County is offended by the Saints Coach because, he is a Bracken County boy that the Polarbears should have locked up when he was there!!!!!!

If I'm St. Pat I wouldn't sweat it, Bracken Athletics is in shambles.

This year was kind of a perfect storm in that those two teams met in every way possible.

 

That being said, teams like Deming passed on the BC tourney for Lloyd Memorial for the fact that they played those same teams too many times already.

 

Basically, what I'm saying is that it's cool either way. It is what it is.

Bracken County atletics is in shambles I agree. Leadership is bad. Guess they miss the old AD alot more than people remember!!

Isn't this always the case.

As I was told once. All good things must end. Does this mean no playing each other in regular season... Has she stopped that

I have to think they're not trying to avoid each other totally as much as just trying to see each other maybe 3 or 4 times instead of 6. I don't think anybody is harmed by that. It's not like there isn't an abundance of holiday tournaments out there.

I think Minerva is taking St. Pat's place in the tourney!:lol:

Great,great decision. Would have said the same if Bracken had went 6-0 against them. Absurd to play the same team more than 3 times in a season if it can be prevented and if means not playing in same tournaments, so be it. Great decision by the AD. Now lets make the X-mas tourney a 10th vs. 16th region set up and we're rolling.:popcorn:
