69-49 HC win

54-42 with 4:14 in the fourth

HC 32 LC 15. At the half

That was really cool. It puts much more of a personal touch to the players as opposed to " the other team"

I know there is some increased revenue by clearing, but what other reason is there? Are they worried there might not be enough seat? Are the seats assigned? They could just make it general admission and there would be plenty of room because obviously not many would stay for all the games. It would also make a bigger crowd for the kids to play in front of and increased concessions. The facilities are set unto handle 20000+ fans for college games. It should be able to handle that for high school.

No worries sometimes written statements don't come out as intended.

"Koz is a great coach. and I think it could be his, but for whatever reason I never got the vibe that he wants to climb any ladders? I don't know him so I could be wrong but I always assumed he was just having fun and teaching the game in his retirement. Not a knock on him, just didn't know if his goal was high pressure big program. After beating NCC he can stay at HC for the next 5 years with no pressure because of what he did this year and previous." I am not sure why wanting to stay at a small school and growing the program would preclude someone from COY. I do not think you have to have aspirations to try to go to a bigger program. Isn't being a good coach getting the most out of your players and the talent available and doing your best to make improvements? Just my two cents. After this weekend I think definitely in the hunt if not moving towards a frontrunner.

What was the attendance? Do they clear the stadium between games? Unfortunately I had to work and couldn't go.

Good luck hc in the finals. The trip is bittersweet for me. It is the first year in a long time one of my brothers is not on the team.

Agree. Good luck Indians.

I think grouping all fans with a small group of misbehaving people is not right. Most Holy Cross fans that I know are good people who respect other teams and are excited to be in the finals for the first time. As you can pick up just from reading posts on here there were many people there just watching the game and maybe cheering for HC because they are local, but not "Holy Cross fans" per se. Maybe it was them, maybe it was random people who knows but stereotyping an entire fan base that you obviously don't know in inappropriate. It would be like saying all people from Somerset commit personal fouls or try to take out players from other teams. Once again a few do not represent the whole.

I want to say this may be their 12 th year. The one significant fact is that these are some of the first kids to go all the way through the junior high and high school program. When the program began most of the players were playing for the first time as freshman. These kids had a couple of years under their belt when they started as freshman.

What happened at the end?

48-14. 2 minutes left. Hc with the ball

42-14. HC

Hc 35-14. 10:40 left in the fourth quarter

Is it on the Internet?

Congrats to HC. Each year they seem to improve. I can't remember the consensus from the other thread. Is it a rivalry yet?

31-14 NCC with 5 minutes. Should be over by now, but do not have a final.

24-14 NCC 5 minutes left in the third quarter

17-14 NCC at the half

14-14 2nd quarter after big run by NCC to tie it up

Sounds like hc is self-destructing and has a serious lack of run defense.

If he truly had "walking pneumonia" this week that made him sick enough to miss school and practice there is no way he is well enough to play in the 100 degree heat this weekend. Why just sit the first quarter I don't know? If it is a team rule about not starting due to missing practice I agree with as long as it is consistently applied it is up to the coach. Side note it is not hard to get a doctor's note for an "excused" absence even if you just have a cold so this might be why there is such a broad policy. Someone sometime took advantage and everyone suffers.

How are the teams playing?
