Distrct 11-AAA in 2014


Recommended Posts

They did pretty good from what I saw. They will no doubt be improved, but I dont know how much that will show in the win-loss column. Even their non-district schedule is pretty tough for an established school, much less a new program

They play two 11-AAA schools, one good and one bad. That will give us an idea on where Stweie is.

Centennial has always had talent. When Rector arrived is when he did something with the talent and won. This is the first year in a while that their fanbase hasn't been all over these message boards saying that they will win district and have a chance to go to state. However, if they can turn either Roth or Conner Rietveld into a great QB then the sky is the limit for this team. Maybe not state, but they could contend for a district title.

 

Centennial has not always had talent.  Enrollment was decimated when Indy opened and dropped to around 1200.  2008 was a good year due to a senior laden OL, Drew Kelly coming back to football and speed to burn with Scales, Jackson and Kemp.  That class graduated and with the same coaching staff, they go a combined 3-17 over the next two years.  Nick Saban would have had trouble going .500 with some of those teams.

 

Rector is a good coach, changed the culture and gets a lot out of his players.  At the same time, he hit the transfer lottery with Tomlin and Sanders.  Without Tomlin, they struggled last year, even with an SEC caliber receiver in Hall. If the passing game doesn't improve this year, teams will stack the box to stop Sanders and the offense will sputter.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
