This will be a tough year for the Breds. Josh Cain will have the show to run, so it all falls on his shoulders

[toussaints]

It's going to be NCC and Holy Cross fighting for the regional again.

Hightchew will be extremely hard to replace. I know they've got that kid that transferred from Arizona, but will he have to play defense and can he contribute defensively if he does?

Brady Thacker will be healthy, which is good news for the line.

Wonder what Wideleft01 will have to say about this one...

I agree that it will ne HC and NCC fighting for regionals. The big difference this year will be the line play. NCC has had HC's number in the past. Last year in the playoffs HC's line outplayed NCC and I look for that to be the same this year. What kind of size will NCC have on the line this year?

I dont know what their size and depth will be, but I'm with you I think HC will have the advantage on the line again.

Hope to see NCC get back to their glory days this year...

I am not saying it wont happen but HC showed some things that should scare NCC last year. In the years past NCC controlled the line. Not in the play off game thou, and I believe HC learned how to win on the line. I see this happening for a while to come.

Is the Cain girl that runs for NCC Josh's sister? She has a great set of wheels, if it runs in the family, Josh must be pretty quick too.

^ No, cousin

[Wideleft01]

First of all, that schedule is pitiful. I do expect NCC to put Highlands and Covcath on the schedule starting in 2013. It may demoralize their morale when they do, but I think Eviston will upgrade the schedule, unlike his predecessor.

NCC is kidding themselves if they think they have a solid schedule. Just a bunch of mediocre 5-5 and 4-6 teams. It's loaded with 3 and 4 seeds for the playoffs. Oh, except Beechwood and Holy Cross, both of whom will beat NCC again. I expect NCC's downward spiral from 2011 to continue for years to come.

Campbell County will beat them by a couple scores next year.

^ Good to see you back

[WideRight05]

^ Good to see the entire Wideshow involved in a thread.

[Wideleft01]

On a sidenote, who cares about baseball? It gets about the same number of fans as a decent tennis match or the bowling tourney.

Put out the NCC bait and the elusive Wideleft01 comes running.
