The Rest of the Story. . .
When we started the year we had:
3 seniors (4 with Sierra Nordick - 1st year out)
2 juniors
4 sophomores
4 freshmen (5 with Maria Diaz - 1st year out)
4 8th graders
THE INJURIES. . .
*Senior Kelcey Lass (varsity starter) went out in December with a season ending knee injury.
*One of the sophomore b-squad members(Emma Strand) went down in early February with a season ending knee injury
*Senior Katie Mattern (varsity starter) had season ending surgery on her foot on February 9th.
AS A RESULT. . .
--->These recent injuries have forced us to NOT allow two of the sophomores(Haley Hoyer & Chelsea Bjerke) to play on b-squad any more as they are now full time varsity and we only have 7 players to play at that level. Playing 3 halves is just not feasible as they get worn down playing a full varsity game.
--->We can no longer play the other sophomore(Ann Ouren) full time on b-squad as she now has become our second player off the bench and she needs to be eligible for both the first and second halves of the varsity game.
---> Kendra Coleman(9th Grader) is now our first player off the bench on varsity and so having her play a half of b-squad and then a full varsity game is asking too much so she can no longer play b-team ball.
AS A CONSEQUENCE OF THIS. . .
Our ninth graders had been playing up at the b-squad level all year so we would have enough to fill a team. Along with these 9th graders, we have had our 8th graders occassionally play up at the b-squad level. There are only a few 8th graders in our conference that have the strength and skill to play b-squad ball so having these four players play at this level wasn't exactly a desired situation.
After the junior high season we invited our 7th graders to join up with the 8th graders to play at the C-Squad level. This would hopefully give our 8th graders a better experience as they could at least go against 9th graders instead of sophomores and juniors. This means that the only players we have left to play b-squad were:
3 - Ninth graders (Michaela Gray - Abby Feist - Alejandra Sevedra)
So we are in a situation where we must play the 8th graders at the b-squad level again but this time with out the help of any sophomores.
SO WE DECIDED. . .
Because the players that now make up the b-squad now look more like a C-squad, I have done a little rescheduling. . .
**Breckenridge game we played a c-squad and no b-squad.
**Barnesville game we will play a c-squad and no b-squad.
**DGF game we will only play a varsity squad (They don't have a c-team)
**Frazee game we will play a c-squad and no b-squad.
**Crookston game is a varsity only event at Concordia.
So now you know. . . .THE REST OF THE STORY.
Good Day!
