We also had one starter this year who couldn't play because of grades, but he got to play during spring break.[/quote]Thats crazy
dualdellortos Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 The reason players become eligible during holiday breaks of AT LEAST one week is because the UIL has deemed that those week(s) would be beyond the normal three week punishment for failing a class. At XMAS, a player may pass the 3rd six weeks, but his grades won't be reported and collected until teachers can proof everything when they return from holiday break. So a player would miss another two weeks of eligiblity (basketball mostly). They feel it is better to let an ineligible kid get a week they shouldn't get than have an eligible kid miss more time than he deserved to miss.Not saying I agree. Just sayin......
Chazz Michael Michaels Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 I kinda like that rule actually.
andy.

Liberty and Livingston were both missing several starters, which changed the whole outlook of the games. District 38 might be better, but [b]it was more timing than talent.[/b][/quote]...and there is the only nominee for the most ridiculous thing i've heard all year.grow up and accept it, eh?
Lumraider22 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 lol all that matters is that the cubs move on and the jags dont
Lum-raider10 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 Hamshire, don't get on here acting like you can beat us again, that was our first game and we improved a lot. You guys lost to central as well

hj_hawk_60 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Posted March 23, 2010 I agree HF has come along way.. especially for a first year varsity team to make it 2 rounds deep in the playoffs is a major accomplishment.. weither they would beat Lumberton if they played again im not sure, but we'll never know
spectator34 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 To foreveradog and hj_hawk_60 : Thanks for the support towards HF. Better luck next year Lumberton ;D

Lumraider22 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 I think that HF indeed played with a lot of heart. Lumberton as well. The game could go either way, but if lumberton went into the game expecting an easy win, they should be prepared for a repeat of their playoff loss.
coach_stockmalone Posted March 24, 2010 Report Posted March 24, 2010 First of all, missing starters does make a difference to a 3A first year program, but maybe not to an established 4A squad. Why is everyone all over HF as a first year program? Liberty is a first year program and they made the play-offs as well. District 40 slapped district 38 anyway, so the conversation about which district is better (37 or 38) doesn't even matter.

wasone03 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 i would say the only team that got "slapped" was first year hampshire fannett. who beat 37's second place team.
dualdellortos Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 Waller slaps alot of people. They are GOOD!
Chazz Michael Michaels Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 We hung with Waller in the first half, but I agree that Waller did slap us around kinda like Chris Brown slaps around Rihanna in the second. Waller could easily dominate most of the teams in our area though.

Lumraider22 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 Liberty does deserve respect for how far they have come for a first year varsity team as well. That is without a doubt. The only thing that makes HF's situation a little more spectacular is the fact that they came ahead of LCM and Central in district. Coming ahead of two 4a teams in district is pretty great if you ask me. Then going on to defeat vidor.. As close as the game was, HF deserves a lot of respect with how far they have come.I thought they were gonna be obnoxious and all bark no bite, but they held pretty strong.
Chazz Michael Michaels Posted March 25, 2010 Report Posted March 25, 2010 I agree Congrats to liberty for a good year as well.

raideroldtimer Posted March 27, 2010 Report Posted March 27, 2010 [quote name="_Alan_" post="779830" timestamp="1269147448"]1. 2. png defeated 4. liberty1. 2.nederland defeated 3. livingston3.hamshire fannett defeated 2. vidor4.bmt central defeated 1. lumberton [/quote]You know this is all fine and dandy. I realize this is just the boys side of it here but after the 3rd playoff games are said and done, which district still has any of it's teams left? Could it be the Lady Raiders from district 37?
thoroughbred57 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Posted March 27, 2010 Way to go 37! Lumberton is so awesome and 38 is just pathetic...how many 37 teams were in the 3rd round?????? ONE! where were the rest of the awesome 37's last night? At home or watching 3 from 38 still playing (or 1 from 37)...SO, this means that 37 is the best? I love soccer and the people who comment about the sport ;D ???
WellRead Posted March 27, 2010 Report Posted March 27, 2010 There is little doubt 38 was the stronger district this year. When you play more competitive teams you tend to get stronger - this is the difference between 37 and 38 - thanks to the wisdom of UIL allgnment two years ago. Hopefully the new allignment due out April 1st will address this problem. That said, the Lumberton Lady Raiders are to be congratulated for perservering through the district handicap, upending foes from the stronger district, and being the only team left in the playoffs. Oh, and thanks for the love, 57. ;D
