I heard directly from Coach Specht's mouth last night that the decision to not schedule Trinity was his decision as he makes final decisions on the schedule. He said it had nothing to do with being scared or intimidated by anyone and if anything, he laughed at the notion. It was purely due to the Harbin system and the fact that Trinity and St. Edwards share too many common opponents with X and it makes the tier two Harbin points problematic. By scheduling other teams with more variety in their schedule it makes obtaining those points easier.

Maybe the 9th region all A.

Which hill? I heard Park Hills...

which 8th graders made a roster?

Camels have only made it to the region 4 times in the last 10 years.

Sorry I meant before this year. Your use of the word "consistently" implies that it's a regular occurence.

BB, Scott, and CCHS consistently at the top??? not sure i agree with that. they have had some decent teams over the years and brossart consistently overachieves based of their size, but when was the last time any of these teams have been in a regional final? even pc has won the region and been to a second final in the past 10 years. they have a much better case than the other three schools.

Maybe in order to get a guaranteed win they should have scheduled Boone.

If you choose to look at this as a state championship then you maybe you should decline to participate in the 9th region tournament and compete for the opportunity to go to Rupp where the REAL state championship is played and recognized. Why should NC get to double dip? Can Trinity play football in the AA division? In the end, it's a great accomplishment but I don't think you will find many on here or anywhere else that will consider the All A a true state championship for basketball.

This!

The real irony is this thread started out as a discussion about X and Trinity and was quickly taken over by the birds like so many other threads. The funny thing is the birds won't man up and play either X or Trinity, yet openly discuss in other threads their desire for national prominence.

Grant is a good coach but the better coach is Booher. He proved it last night plus he has a sweet 16.

Considering your kids on the team why don't you fill us in?

Simple answer, send them to Brossart because they will get a better education.

I don't see Dale calling to try to get a regular season game on the schedule with Trinity.

A few of them are from the omega rockets.

Heppler is okay. Big strong kid but I think a lot of kids have caught up to him. Combs and Stringer are in a totally different league.

Looks awesome. On a slightly related note, how will the team be? Who will take over the reins now that Durham is graduating?

I have no idea on the whole consolidation rumor, however I was told by a senior administrator several years ago before the economy slowed that Campbell County would most definitely be opening a new high school in the northern part of the county in the near future. While the economy is still very poor, the new Arcadia subdivision in Alexandria appears to be underway. This will bring another 1500 or so homes to the area and will require the school board to make some decisions in the next few years.

You may be right on Cooper. I would say if you are looking purely at Freshman talent it's Beechwood and it's not even close. Several of their top freshman will be playing JV or possibly varsity so it won't reflect on their freshman record.

what are the transfer rules without having a bonafide change of address?

Cheeseman, McNeil, and Moeves were really selling it.

These are the kind if kids that are in for a rude awakening one day when they have a boss they may not like but have bills to pay.

I remember several years ago in the youth AAU circles all you heard about was Walton this and Walton that. They were building a powerhouse program. They are no closer today than they were 5-6 years ago. Just a bunch of parents making noise.

Nate will be missed but Camels are young and will be fun to watch next year.
