This reminds me of a summer I coached youth flag football, and one of the volunteer coaches was an actual coach for a travel tackling football team. He made his entire team sign up for the league and these kids were all bigger, faster, and had obvious playing chemistry than every other team. Obviously they blew everyone out and just took the fun out of the game. I remember their MLB was literally double the size the kids on my team and he would play way too physically.

This was on Outside the Lines yesterday. It's ridiculous. The team in question apparently just lucked into the majority of their players getting big.

Per the coach, the team was 3-6 3 years ago. majority of the current team was on that team as well, and all of the school's students come within a 13 mile radius of the school. It's not like it's some private school busing in the elite players from the next county over.

The other school's just need to grow the hell up (metaphorically, because obviously they can't literally) and take their beatings

The word you are looking for is piqued not peaked.

Looks like this school should be in Class 1A in Washington based on enrollment, but plays up to Class 2A. They are the smallest school in Class 2A by 103 kids (the Class ranges from 982 kids to 472 kids, this school has 369)

I assume "Archbishop Murphy" is a catholic school.

Granite Hills is at the lower end of 2A with 491 kids, Cedar Park Christian has 289, which places it in the lower half of 1A.

Seems like a Curtis situation up there (someone mentioned they weren't always this big or this good, so not exactly).

Speaking of Curtis... they played a great game against Jesuit last night and won 14-7. From all reports, it was a well played game by both teams.

This is how it should be. Curtis is still better than the vast majority of teams out there and will still win plenty of championships, but at least they have to now play a competitive schedule. The teams they playing in the Catholic League have the same size rosters as they do, and can hang with them.

Too bad your interest wasn't piqued instead.

Soooooo...recruiting is the issue? No way. Don't be pussies, pull a John Curtis and step up the competition.

So this is where Florida learned in. I guess they're starting to roll back into the crowd Coach Klein style.
