We (Mount Carmel) play against Divine Child, the Michigan state champion, tonight at 7 PM at UIC.

 

No offense but I hate you guys and the school (hell I almost went there) You guys beat our baseball team (Carmel has an outstanding team) solid b-ball team, and football. You guys all around suck. :P

I didn't get the whole story, but you quit over a number? In a few years, you will regret it.

 

I didn't quit over a number solely. I quit over the Coach being consistently disrespectful, rude and shoddy and the fact that I never got any playing time even when he'd just told me that I'd be getting some playing time. All the Coach ever did was treat me like s*** until he finally crossed the line.

 

Why stay on a team where I won't even get to play? I can warm up on my own, thanks. And my teammates were, by and large, jagoffs with the Coach's approval.

 

You might say I'm selfish bot quitting. I don't think what I did was. On our team, you don't even earn your spot through tryouts -- you earn it through the Coach putting you on, and often that choice is made through "age" and "experience." It's not worth it. I'll join a Summer League instead.

If that's the sport I loved, I would rather be playin games and practicing.

I'll second this.

LaPorte 9 Crown Point(#3 in Indiana) 4

Conant beat Barrington 4-1 and are leading the msl alone in first place. Sophomore austin wright threw a two hitter, this is a guy to watch he had 13 ks and can hit the 90s.

Where do you/did you go?

Family comes first to me. And trust me, I love baseball more than just about anything but I could not pass up the opportunity to visit my godfather who I havent seen since I was like 9, and also to experience the wild outdoors of Alaska. What's done is done and I do not regret going to Alaska one bit.

Your coach lets you go on spring break?...IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEASON?

 

At my school we are required to stay home for Spring Break...and our vacation is always before the games begin.

If I abandoned the team to go on vacation, a pink slip would be waiting in my locker when I got back.

I went to Bishop Noll first till I was a soph., then went to Washington H.S. That's where we played Carmel and other good teams.

Yea when I heard that I was like... DAMN!! :o I guess their pitching wasn't the same as last year. :lol: Dafnis (one of the studs on our team) shut you guys out twice last year I think in one of them he had a no-hitter till like the 6th but I believe he got like 15K's and 2BB with only 3-5 hits from your school. If only he took baseball more seriously (could hit/pitch) wasn't so lazy, and wasn't a cub fan (had to put that in there) I think he probably would have had the best potential to succeed in college get drafted pretty high, and probably make it (or sniffed) the bigs. Good talent wasted but I still know two guys who can do the things I just listed.. :)

That team is horrible. They lost to f***ign Westinghouse. WESTINGHOUSE! The guy who came in for the starting pitcher was pretty good. He had some good stuff and kept our batters of balance. I think we still scored lik 5 off him in 2 innings...and we only played 5.

Haha. This is Brooks' first head-to-head win against Washington. Before today, I think it was 0-5 or 0-6. Not anymore lol. :P

Is that George Washington? Like the school that played in the OF regional for basketball?

LaPorte 13 Lake Central 0

Lake Central is #2 in the state of Indiana. Ad we rocked their ace going to Valpo University.

They don't seem like a school that would be a baseball type. Suprising to me, a suburbanite though.

Considering we have so many damn races in that school, plus every particular person liking other stuff, and being it's a public school.. I wouldn't say surprising. But I know where your comming from on this. Other than this year, we have had a damn solid baseball team, and damn outstanding bastketball team, and an average football team (just listing the 3 main sports not counting our very solid soccer team etc..)

Yeah I just kinda assumed they were Hillcrest-ish, good hoops, decent football, baddd baseball.

Curious, do you know anyone on the Conant hockey team? Cause we knocked them out of the state playoffs.

Yes that would be Ranko indeed. Our team got off to a rough start for our standards with 3 losses but this week we beat #4 Crown Point and #2 Lake Central, both handily. This are defintely looking up.
