Please do not label all South fans as rednecks and classless. Every school has fans that seemingly cannot control themselves. I think some people just like to draw attention to themselves, but all they are doing is drawing bad publicity for the school that they support and embarrassing their children. /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

I must be lost, I thought this was the volleyball forum. Not! I just had to respond to sshsvbdad09. I have always believed that the coach from CH was good. I think that South would benefit from her coaching. Any coach worth their salt would encourage each girl to become a team player instead of totally depending on a select few. I know that there will always be some players that are better than others, but it takes a 5 girls on the floor to make a team. A great coach is one who can take a group of girls with some talent and make them a winning team (example, Barbara Campbell, Brentwood). I do not think this has been the case at South. You do not keep saying that we can not replace so and so and expect the others to have much confidence. I have never liked a one or two girl team at the benefit of the rest of the team. South has some good players, they just need to be reminded of that (go get them GC and AJ). South also has some talented young players coming up the rank and we should be looking forward to some great teams in the years to come.

I have to disagreed with you about the referees being horrible the whole time. I was there for most of the games and although there were some bad calls made and calls that were not made, I felt like the referees did a good job. I disagree with letting the official keep the book and also the scoreboard (if this was the case?). As a person who kept the book for my team, it is really difficult to keep up with the points played in the book and then trying to add points to the scoreboard. Also, as a scorekeeper, we would always confer with each other about what we had versus what the scoreboard showed. In my opinion, the score in Page/Boyd fifth game was not correct; did this cost Page the match, we will never know. I am sure you would like to think that you have the best referees, but I wonder how many times the fans from 11-AAA complained about bad calls during your season. I can assure you that the referee from District 1-AAA is accustomed to seeing volleyball played at a fast pace. Don't you think it only fair that each district have the opportunity to have referees at the State Tournament?
