Any of you HS players in the area that would like to come watch some of the best college teams in the area (all the way from OK to IN) you are more than welcome to, just let me know.

Too bad the best team in the area won't be playing :lol:


Side note: About what time is this going to be over? I have to go back home Saturday afternoon.

Like I said, the best team won't be playing, since they will be running it.

Yes... you could take second for two straight years in 3A.

Actually, I played Class 2, and my point is that I (and my teammates) have improved a lot!

Too bad every year save one it was to Richland.

Matt, you could easily take second in Class 4. I've been there as the sideshow in the series finale of the Adam Hill Experience.

I don't know about Class 4... but then again, I've never watched Liberty or Parkway Central play.

Bill wrote:I think Mizzou will not make it nationals this year based on them losing to Illx2, Northwestern, Ark, with tossup matches against Truman, and OU leaving them with a possible record of 2-12 or up to 6-8. But I could be wrong.
Is Howie on the OU team? --- (edit) Haha... I guess I could actually look at the results to find out.

We were a bit worried what would have happened to you when you stepped foot on Bourbon Street...

Bring on the beignets! (If Truman's well enough to earn a bid.)

Hello? I've been to New Orleans before! I turned 18 there! (Of course, this trip was for a national church youth group gathering).

I've been to N'awrlans twice and stood pertrified when V.Jones led the team through a sidewalk tunnel north of Canal onto Bourbon Street.

"You" as in Truman, of course. I'm not too pleased with my personal performance, yet am very proud for the team.

If our science person's able to go to New Orleans, I might be staying put. That's still very speculative.
