I thought the subject here was "tradition". Does Bell Co.
really have that much tradition going back before Hilton?
Does Belfry have much before Haywood? That's the
question. Not number of titles. Boyle Co. has 7 titles
since 1997/8? But next to no tradtion prior to that.

Think about UCLA and Wooden. 10 title in 12 years.
but NO tradition prior to that. And not a lot since.
Tradition is playing the game well for years upon
years, and even if you have a little down spell, you
come back again.

Must have missed my earlier post on Boyle.

The Rebels had three District titles in the old school points system and went to the playoffs three times in the 60's, 70's and early 80's.

Posted seasons of 9-0, 9-1, 9-2, 10-2, 9-1-1 among other winnings seasons during those years. Boyle posted wins over such programs as Danville, Harrodsburg, Henry Clay, Bardstown, Somerset, among others. Tradition was there but from '84 to '91 the Rebs had only one winning season. That's what leads so many to think Boyle just appeared on the scene with Chuck Smith. :Thumbs:
