I personally would have welcomed the change this year to allow our athletes to progress during district to playing these larger programs. Yeah, it may have hurt some, maybe not. This football bunch has shown great tenacity, and likely would have been super competetive in 5A. I mean really, how many 5A schools that we would have had in a future district match would have seen a Slot-T offense or figured out in a week how to defend against it.
I went to the pep rally last night to see my senior at her last hoorah. As I sat and watched the football team being introduced, i thought to myself, damn, these guys are small. Maybe its cause I've been watching too much college ball lately or I was sitting to far away!. Never the less, it is clear that regardless of my size perception of this LH team is right or wrong, they are one tough bunch of ballers with speed and grit that can bring it.
