[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SJCHS had a great team last year and a very good one this year.  
They like to ask why Prep and other schools won't schedule them.
They are partly to blame.  SJCHS wants/has to schedule out of conference games early.  Prep and Landon do not practice year round like SJCHS, and SJCHS only wants to schedule Prep and Landon in the first couple of weeks of the season.  Prep is just getting warmed up and getting their team together, and Landon, who I hear has a lot of multi-sport kids and didn't even have its team selected before their spring break, do not want to play a team in mid-season form when they are just getting started.  If SJCHS would agree to schedule other local powerhouses later in the season, when the field is more level, maybe other local programs would be willing to schedule those games.  
Blah Blah Blah,  Bullis-they also play year round as a team.  The only teams that follow the rules in the IAC are Prep and Landon.  Bullis, StA, and SSSA all practice as teams throughout the year in violation of IAC Rules.

Maybe the WCAC will divide into two divisions and that would open up room in the schedule for Ireton to schedule appropriate competition and and SJCHS to schedule more appropriate competition.   [/quote]

Now the excuse is they aren’t ready to play SJC when the season starts?  Probably the most truthful thing I’ve read here from an IAC parent.

It’s not about players wanting to transfer to SJC.  It’s about coaches knowing they aren’t ready to play the local powerhouse down the street.   [/quote]

When everyone at SJCHS plays year round and Prep or Landon doesn't play year round and many Prep and Landon kids play more than one sport, both teams will not be equally prepared at the start of the season.  That isn't an excuse, that is a fact.

Why won't SJCHS agree to play non conference teams later in the year when those teams are ready to play?  [/quote]

Prep wouldn’t even play St. Anthony’s when they were in town to play St. John’s the second week in April.  They said no thanks.  Guess they weren’t ready in April for that level of game either.  Take a look at the prep schedule.  The first half is much tougher than the 2nd half of the season.   #ducking [/quote]
