[quote=Newjacket]Did you see the game today? That was Michael Dylan playing with and injured hand dominating on defense. Just rewatched the game on CKYSPORTS and they couldn't believe he wasn't an all state performer either. This game wasn't a fluke, he has been doing it for two years now. Chase had over a hundred yards rushing in both games this weekend. Probably the tourament MVP in my opinion. Corey was the best receiver in the entire tournament and again the announcers even stated this. Chris dominated the line on both sides of the ball. Again, these kids have done this all year, not just this weekend. It comes down to the voters being more familiar with the kids from the schools that are good every year and have played in the tournament before. We were the smallest school in the tournament and they didn't expect us to be this good. Sad part is these eighth graders are a special group and we won't see their like again for several years. We will be good next year and I think for the next several years, but probably not this good.[/QUOTE

I know that the other teams don't pick the All-State teams but I do know that we our boys were shafted. I am not trying to take anything away from the boys from any other teams but there were schools who had 4-5 players on the All State Team. If you haven't you should watch the game online and listen to what the impartial commentators had to say about our boys and how they were All State players. It doesn't take much to see that these boys are great players and play with a lot of heart. It says a lot about our boys when they can make plays and carry defenders down the field with them. You are right Michael Dylan was playing with possible a broken thumb for the second half of the game on Saturday and the whole game on Sunday but that didn't stop him from making great plays. We are very proud of our boys and know that they deserve to be All State players.
