chances R

No matter how you look at it.....it's a knock! But if that's how you want to see it.....Bearden beat the other teams....now all a loser (mj's words, not mine) but that being the case Bearden is the BEST loser....and the State Champions.

BigG, through your contacts, would you be able to have those with the info forward any post-season awards to you for posting? It is frustrating to try and find a source for this info...and coachT seems to be the ONLY place for good soccer info.

I agree with mujhb. Overall, there is only one good reason to play HS and club soccer. That's because you are having fun. This includes hard work and dedication to your sport and your team-mates. If you enjoy it, and feel that you would continue to do so in college, then by all means pursue those goals with a passion. If not, and you don't enjoy it now, it sure won't be fun later in college. And yes, an education may be even better at other schools, so D1 is not the 'ultimate', unless you set that out to be your goal. It is just like the NCAA commercial says, 99% of you will do something else after college other than sport. That is why the players need to enjoy the moment, set and achieve their goals with hopefully soccer as a means of paying the way while you enjoy (and work) your way through which ever school meets your needs. As far as ODP goes, most players and parents I talk with don't seem to enjoy it, and feel they do not get their money's worth. It is also noticable that many of the top club players do not participate in ODP, so it is not necessarily the 'best of the best' which I have been led to believe. It may be more of asset to those that need the exposure, don't know, but just seems that way to me. I do feel that using different coaches would be preferrable with the least bias, and also a better teaching environment.

.......AND.....last time I checked Seniors are UPPERclassmen...

Maybe so, but this thread is about UNDERCLASSMEN

Still waiting for that score from last nite to be posted
