[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like lots of previous varsity players aren’t returning.  Wonder why?  Problems with Heeter?[/quote]

From what I gathered from a few shell shocked and upset parents, the new HC’s priority is to win.  If it means shedding a few players who gave their heart and soul to the school and sports program (and previously played varsity) so be it.  STA can’t have it both ways.  Include everyone only to be saddled with low performing players during practices, or focus on building and hurt the feelings of some kids.  I don’t know the right answer.  My kid is a soccer player and they cut all the time.  Lots of hurt feelings and even tears.  I guess that’s a good life lesson?  The soccer team does win though.[/quote]

I have no skin in this game, but he is never going to win playing freshmen in the IAC. Look at the strongest programs: they keep freshmen (who may be skilled, but are typically way too small) on JV and freshmen teams, where they can develop along with maybe less strong players. By the time they're all upperclassmen, they have grown together as a team. Look at Gonzaga and Bullis, almost no freshmen on the varsity field. It's not rocket science.[/quote]
