lcm or nederland. lcm players actually applaud at the end of each game to thank their fans for coming. never hear trash coming from either program. their coaches won't tolerate it.

ok, that explains a lot...

centralmex13 are you really the coach or dis you just sign cox to your post?

first of all, mexican style is not the "real thing"...univision drama maybe, but not "the real thing". perhaps a little background on the history of the sport would help you out. i have watched the central team play and "evolve" over the years and it has gone from junk ball to cheap & dirty. your coach has no class, he walks up and down the field ranting and raving (on the actual field...not just the sidelines), allows his players to openly call out to each other telling one another to "take out" players from opposing teams...i'll let you in on a big secret...mexicans are not the only ones who can speak and understand spanish. he flat out cheats by switching jersey #'s for players who get red carded, allows tons of kids in street clothes to camp out on the sidelines during games, huuuumm....more switching involved? and you are proud of this?

obviously you have YEARS of coaching/playing expierence? wedel played and coached college ball, and took wos into ot/so games against png, nederland and lcm when he coached at wos. obviously the program has fallen off a bit since he changed schools.

why is it ok to hand it to one team and not another? we will all be waiting to see just how considerate everyone else is in the weeks to come. leger fed the ball to other people all night long, 3 goals went right through their keeper's hands...after he touched the ball, defenders played forward, even the bears keeper scored. they mixed it up all over the field...would you have preferred maybe a few charity pk's with hmmm let's say no keeper in the lc-m box? that would have been a nice gesture. this is not a youth soccer league where everyone gets a turn, keeping score is optional and players line up for their orange slices and fruit punch at the half. it is a competative sporting event. who cries "bad form" when ozen or wo-s spanks someone during football season? we all see the scores, say "ouch" and move on. lc-m plays nederland on friday...maybe their coach wanted them on a high going into that game?

would it really be soccer season in southeast texas without cold & wet?

Purple pride took a dive over at Battlin' Bear Stadium. First time in a long time that the Bears have delivered a loss to PN-G in HS Boys Soccer. Leger with the hat trick no less. Some amazing saves. Defense is playing well together. Is Wedel trying to fine tune the machine for district play? The Ned Tourney should tell a lot...

never know what will come out of that swamp that lcm calls a soccer field

the keeper for lc-m looks pretty good...he is young, but has a lot of talent.

which teams in the district are in the best physical shape? who has the best endurance?

good luck to you...enjoy your season

the all district keeper will be busy without those defenders...good luck to you guys.

huh...dan hooks gave wedel the credit, for taking soccer to the next level. the coach they have now has not built the program up, that is for sure. i feel sorry for the kids that have talent and desire over there.

the silver looked sharp, i think wos wore them last year. what years did you play for Wedel?

I think LCM is looking pretty good for the next couple of years, they had a young team last year. There were even some freshmen on the field that last game when the came back to beat Central.

Wedel really brought soccer to WOS. They had a few decent years before he got there, but he had them tie Nederland, PNG and LCM in OT that went into PK's. They have not even come close to that level of play since he left. Look what he did at LCM in the 1 year he had them.

or how many dives they can take...waste time, run out the clock, roll arounl on the ground and hold their leg or side until the other players get back into a better position on the field. of course a coach that teaches or condones that kind of play really just shows his own weakness as a coach

lcm and png always look sharp

no kidding about central cheating with players...some of those guys looked like they were pushing 20...someone needs to get school records, a yearbook, call INS or something
