I heard PVI's 27's are super loaded and strong[/quote]

Why are PVI #s down so much? Didnt even have enough players for a JV team this year?[/quote]

Did PVI take down their teams link? I don't see it on the site.

In an effort to be all everything to everyone, schools across the board just have too many sports thereby watering down the core sports. Schools in the WCAC and IAC offer around 25-30+ sports and they include varsity letter sports like fencing, riflery, squash, ultimate frisbee and so on. I think GZ has 3 rugby teams so now a much smaller male-populated school like PVI feels like it needs rugby.  The trickle down effect is there is a lack of focus on the larger roster and core sports of a school. Athletic director's time is consumed by scheduling and practice schedules and all the other things involved in trying to support such small sports. This takes away time from developing programs to support the core sports. For example, Fall and winter should be used to develop basketball, baseball and lacrosse.

Of course DCUM will scream about inclusivity and dei for all. I'm all for the fringe sports to exist on the club level, but if schools want stronger programs they need to focus on what they can do well and not just on what they can do. [/quote]

That had zero to do with the situation at PVI. Are you really trying to say that PVI needs to focus less on fencing and more on basketball?  The lacrosse issue is a lacrosse related issue PVI will soon be just like Ireton and Oconnel in lacrosse. [/quote]

I love how dcum immediately focuses on one thing and then injects another because they are so offended at everything.  Yes, schools like PVI should get rid of ancillary varsity letter sports like fencing, squash and others in order to provide more attention, skills and development clinics for core sports. In PVI's case, get rid of fencing and have more skills clinics so the school can have JV lacrosse. [/quote]
