MC Freshman go undefeated
- Thread starter feeto
- Start date
That might be a stretch.
If only we could have the realization of a matchup with the mythical Bartlett 2005 team.
Were any IMG scouts at the game?
... and if that trade for Samson Evans didn't hit a snag.
When I was there we had the undefeated shirts made before the last game. Granted the last game was against Leo.
They could only hope to be that good in the future!

That was the greatest freshmen team of all time. They ended up being pretty good. I think they lost to MS in the quarters in a really tight game.
While encouraging, Fr records mean little.
Years ago I was at a Shepard @ Oak Lawn game.Oak Lawn sophs won 36-8.They were going crazy.Asked the kid why the celebration though they played good.He said the year before Shepard "A" team beat them 40 to 6 & Shepard "B" team beat them 46-8.
I believe that the freshmen won lost records do not mean a thing. From freshman year to the wise year you get transfers, expulsions, lack of development, loss of interest and a myriad of other factors that may reduce their effectiveness. It could be anything. I would say enjoy the moment and kudos to the boys for the accomplishment!
I think more importantly are the number of kids.
St Laurence had a nice sized frosh team. Rice had the biggest one I saw this year. Think they were at around 60 with MC right there with them.
Schools need to work to keep kids interested and working the diamonds in the rough as specialized sports and for the CCL transfers can have a negative impact over time.

I do agree. Yes, lower level victories do not mean automatic success at the upper level, but for the moment, it's good fodder for the fans, and I'm thinking it's good for the programs and their morale.
SR's lower levels should be a combined 16 - 2. I will take that any day, everyday and all the time. Congrats to the Caravan on winning the Freshmen Blue championship.
34-0......2 outstanding running backs. Fast aggressive defense, Jordan Lynch's little brother at QB.... Sophs are 6-1 (Montini game cancelled with weather last Sat).
Players grow....players quit....players transfer....these kids haven't even started seriously lifting yet, so no, you can't gage it, but it is still encouraging! SR, BR, and LA all had good teams and PC had a couple kids playing up, so MC could have had 4 L's. That being said, they had a great team

A very competitive Blue is good for everyone involved. I know MC will be in the Green, but, at least next year, MC will be playing two Blue teams.
Any idea what they're (Catholic League) going to do for 2019? There's going to be some kind of shakeup, I thought I heard.
Any vultures from IMG or Phillips hanging around the field after the game?
