It's the GUM.  

 

That too.

 

One thing I loved about last night's game was the atmosphere and the fans.  Both sides did a great job making a lot of noise but did it the "right way".  I don't know the last time I went to a game with that many in the stands for a girls game.  Loved it.

 

Coach Clapp has done an amazing job with his teams on both the boys and girls side.  The score last night didn't dictate the majority of the game.  For 60 minutes, that was a back and forth match.

%100 agree.  The student sections did a great job encouraging their sides and getting hype for the great soccer moments!  I know it is difficult for high school kids to stay positive in the Page/CPA rival and they did a wonderful job last night, That makes our games so much more exciting! (I heard the only negative fans were Fairview girls that were mad at Page).  

 

Good luck tomorrow to the visor and gum chewing Big G! I will have a nice screen saver ready for you next week  :mrgreen:

What it takes to be a state title contender is probably a little different for each state classification. In the top classifications a large number of players with club backgrounds, preferably division 1 club players. Depth is important. A special player or two is a plus. And a great coach who can think on his/her feet can help to even up some of the other unbalanced factors.

 

Is money a factor? Yes, only because more affluent areas tend to have more clubs and consequently, more club players. Great fields, facilities, uniforms, and riding chartered buses all are nice to have, but they have no real impact on championships.

 

There is another factor, though a bit less apparent- emotion. Heart, passion, desire, team unity- these also can be great equalizers. 

 

On a side but related note. This is the first time that I can ever remember  an AAA state bracket that will not have a Williamson County team included. That is absolutely astonishing.

    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
