Triple a academy

[BSWildcat]

Didn't know they were playing without king McClure. This team is the real deal. Even without their leading scorer. Even without McClure I see them beating Mumford fairly easy Saturday.

[/quote] Heard King hurt his knee but will be back to play ball in month or so. AAA seems to be too strong for 1-A. A charter school with one definite high D-1 guard and possibly 2 more playing high-mid D-1 against 1-A kids.

[/quote] Exactly how does this school qualify to be in Class 1-A?? No way a 1A school has that much talent in one year.

This might answer your question.

Academics, Attitude and Athletics are the FOCUS of the curriculum provided to each student. Academically, the curriculum offered is based upon the continuum of developing skills provided at FOCUS Learning Academy.

That is off their school website.

[/quote]Their players have been together since middle school and use to  play on the same summer team, AAA Academy.

[Guest Air Bisquit]

They have students from 15 different school districts from around the DFW area.
That is a heck of a recruiting region..  ;D ;D

Used to? Don't they still play on the same Summer AAU team. I read where they're using the same uniforms. Boys and Girls.

Does the UIL have the option of placing these charter and/or private schools in a classifacation that goes beyond enrollment? Seems like a private all boys school in Houston was placed in a higher division because the student population was just that, all boys. Might be a good idea to add a couple more A's to the Triple A Academy to level the field.

You could put Triple A, Yates, Texas Christian and Utep and a few others in their own conference.

[uknowit2]

Could add those 2 A's after NC.

[/quote]Interesting. Thanks for the information. Sounds like an even playing field to me. ::) I wonder how many kids from SA and Mumford are NCAA hopefuls?

[/quote]yep. That's what they need to do, but I won't hold my breath. What will it take for the UIL to address these types of situations which seem to be coming up more frequently Every year?

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

im still trying to figure out how these teams can participate in a UIL district but the UIL denied Prime Prep.  ;D
