High school football

[BK19]

Starts this friday go lesueur/henderson giants

[Bluegill1510]

Alright! Who are the favored teams this year in the (out) state regions? I already know Eden Prarie will win Class 5A, so lets see what you guys got to say for the smaller schools? I hear Brainerd has another good team, as does Becker. How about down south teams, and any sneaky teams up north?? (East GF, Stephan-Argyle, I-Falls, Greenway, etc.?) Lets here it!

[Burnham]

it actually started tonight due to labor day...

[BK19]

Yeah there was some games last night but les/hen starts tonight although I don't think they will be as good as last year I think holy family will win the section and GSL will win state again

[bassNspear]

GSL has alot of catching up to do. There always good come crunch time, we will have to see

I agree Bill. I think HF will take the section this year. I heard rumor HF was supposed to have a new field this year (artifical turf). I rode by there today after work and it's still the same 'ol grass.

The Giants have some work to do after seeing the game tonight. But glad to see they came back in the 2nd qtr to take the lead and not look back.

Looking at the talent pool the Giants have coming up, next year and the year after will be good years for LSH. Especially if Swanny can continue to improve at the QB spot. He did a great job tonight considering he's only a Sophmore. But still a little work to do.

Doesn't sound like GSL was doing any catching up tonight.

[BK19]

Yeah lsh does have some work to do field goals and xtra pointe for sure and swanny needs to work on holding onto the ball after it is snapped he has been having problems with that science practice started but I was glad to him get the start so he has a few years to go gsl yeah 41 to zip wow it will be an interesting year that's for sure

41-Donut has double meaning in Hutchinson now. What the heck is going on there? I guess that switch to smaller schools is leaving the town with some indigestion. Going to have to make some changes from Missota to Wright.

[Dave S]

That GSL machine just keeps rolling. After hearing of the teams that were put into our section this year, GSL has my full support.

Becker lost to STMA 14-7 at their place, but by all accounts from parents it was a "good game"... sloppy on both sides with penalties etc... Hate to see 2 big time rivals have to play week one, but that is the schedule. Hopefully we get em at sections.

[Burnham]

yea week one always sucks...

[Bluegill1510]

GSL kicked some [PoorWordUsage], glad to see it! No real upsets around the St. Cloud area, my hometown of Foley beat up on scum Lac Qui Parle team (their never any good) 41-7. Albany looks tough again for conference, but they lack in size on the lines. Mississippi "Nine" conference looks pretty wide open, no real favorites. Man I feel old school that there isn't a Rum River Conference anymore, in which I played in..every team went their separate ways!

[FORD FOREVER]

No go Central Raiders you have it all wrong

[Dave S]

If I remember right, the plays called by the Central Raiders in last years 9th grade game was very similar to the GSL play book.

A sign of things to come?

I'll stick to my guns and "claim" that next year will be a good one for LSH. BK19's son and my son are both in a good class of players. A close knit group that resembles the team from a couple years ago that had Savage and Prax.

[bassNspear]

ya, GSL smoked hutch last week! They have a new offence line, but man they looked good! Shows how they get ready to play a game. Smart coaching!

[BK19]

yes sounds like next year will be a great one any i should know you what is your sons name ?

BK19,

your wife and son were nice enough to give him a ride home when his bike broke down and he threw it in the ditch.

I said "Hi" on my way out of the game Friday night, but you had your mind on other things.

[BK19]

Oh ok yeah I was probably just trying to get outta there maybe I'll see ya friday at the game

[Dave S]

I know what you mean about trying to get outta there. It can be a chore.

I'll more than likely be there.

[james_walleye]

My father announces for my hometown boys down in Grand Meadow so I took my kids down there last night and saw something pretty amazing. In the first 14 minutes of the game a kid brought back 2 INT's over 50 yards for TD's, a punt return over 50 yards for a TD, and threw 2 TD's for around 30 yards a piece.

[riverrat56]

Now thats impressive!

[BK19]

Well lesueur/henderson lost against belle plaine 14 to 12 it really frustrates me when they always try for 2 pat instead of kicking for 1 I believe the 2 point should only be used IE: when you are down by 2 with a few seconds left in the game not when you are down 14 zip with 2 quarters left grrrr

[LMITOUT]

Three games into the season and GSL hasn't allowed a single point. That's some tough D.
