I might have to disagree to an extent.  I was at a McGavock game one year and the PA announcer was very over the top.  When our QB gave a great fake and took the ball around the end, the PA guy said over loudspeaker, it’s a fake he’s coming around this side, somebody needs to make a tackle.  That is uncalled for and definitely a wrong way to do it.  I have heard plenty of good ones and plenty of bad ones too!  Smyrna used to have a terrible one back in the 90’s.  

talking about PA announcers is peak offseason

Thank you!  Way off course.  Go from a coaching search to a battle of PA announcers.  SMH

It was a joke that turned into a serious conversation...which is fine for a "message board". It happens all the time. But, we are done now...so back to the coaching search :) Who ya got taking over? How's the talent coming back at FCHS? Can they compete in years to come? It's been a tough decade or more over there.

so to sum this up, opposing teams dont like our PA announcer because he is too loud and is an unapologetic supporter of the home team who he is employed by? Personally as someone who needs names shared for play by play purposes i enjoy going to games where i can hear on the opposing sidelines the names of kids who score, etc... Summit has a very loud PA announcer who is obviously a huge supporter of the Spartans but i left that stadium having had a good time! The PA announcer should be a supporter of the home team with respect to the visiting team and he does that very well      

Summit's PA is by far the worst that I have seen in my 45+ years of going to games as far as class, sportsmanship, and just overall ability.  He really puts a stain on an otherwise good atmosphere.

    • 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.
