  1. Well its really hard to not have grandsons out there but we will be right there to keep the support going. In discussing our team with the oldest he said its definetly goiing to be the line that will need to step up. His favorite line Boys it doesnt matter how big you are/ (you just make sure no one blocks you).

  2. Randy Vanderhoof personifies what a true man should aspire to be. He is a Christian influence on his teams and is a true Ram. Coach Hoof is well respected in the community, school, church and in these boy's hearts. I believe that Coach is also a strong influence at home and loved there more than anywhere else. Coach has a passion that I truly had never seen before from the sidelines. My favorite memory was in the first game that I was apart of with the Raceland program. We were at Ashland for the opening of the 2006 season and somewhere in the early 3rd quarter a "questionable" call had been made followed by the ejection of one of our players. Coach Hoof went bonkers, pacing the sidelines and crying out in disbelief. This went on for several plays and left me wondering what was happening. Then, he stops and with his patented stern, mad face addressed the back judge and screamed with his right index finger pointed directly at him so there was no confusion as to whom coaches displeasure was directed, "That's ok, keep it up! We are going to win this game and come back here and win three in a row!" I just remember thinking, is this guy THAT intense or crazy?! I soon realized that he was as pure a man, and marched to his own beat and loved everyone. He was as fair a coach as I have ever met. Good luck to Coach Hoof and whatever life has in store for him and his family. I know one thing, God will be first and foremost in whatever coach does or where he goes.

     

    This s a very true story. We had a player right there.

  3. I agree with Option about a preview. There is some major talent in our region in baseball so I see no reason not to do a preview. Huffman at Raceland had surgery on Friday and will be out several days. It will be close to see if doctors release for spring break. Those are the reports I have been getting.

  4. Folks need to not give up on Raceland. I feel those boys will step up. I know the rep for Raceland that it is a football school. Even with that said those boys were predicted to lose since they lost the full starting line. Well they stepped up and got to the same place the other teams have. These boys know they are down players but that being said they will step up.

  5. I think Jones will play catcher. The Bonzo boy has played second. He is a possibility. Where do you think Huffman will play. He is usually in Center and comes in to pitch. Will that stay the same? Third will be Reed. Than there is Mckee. We know he will pitch but where to put the lefty. Ratcliff has played outfield. What do you think?

  6. Well i was slow on the draw. I was in Richmond and as soon as I posted I got the same word of Barr leaving. Great News for Huffman although I hadnt heard if that was for sure. Last I heard he was in the visiting stage. I would agree on the pitching we saw a few with some Varsity pitching. Should be interesting.
