Sad development out of Hillcrest.

Without that kid Hillcrest is probably worse than Marshfield

Without him, I think they’re still better than Marshfield and Rog, and could at least be relatively competitive against CJ (MAYBE)
But with him out, and three other two-way starters out including (one of which is who I think their defensive captain is) Marshfield is going to give them problems.
Hillcrest JV QB isn’t bad, he’s just not 6’2 210 with the size and speed and and the deep ball. He’s smaller, but he plays hard and runs hard and can throw an accurate ball, just not near as deep.
He moved the ball downfield on multiple possessions against WP Varsity D the other night, just ended with turnover on downs.

Funny thing is, they may lose to Marshfield on Friday and still beat Rog once they get the other starters back from injury(don’t know how serious the leg injury is with one of them)

Possible it’s a situation similar to what used to be the case in Joplin. When they joined the coc each of the middle schools had their own team and apparently they couldn’t compete with the other coc districts that had all their eggs in one basket so to speak. Now they combine them, A and B teams play COC and I guess they have C teams as well that play a different schedule entirely, mostly smaller schools in the area.

I don’t know enough about SPS to speculate if such a thing would even be possible there. Seems like it would be really complicated and not worth the effort.

My daughter played junior high basketball at CJ during the last year that each Joplin middle school had their own girls basketball team. Joplin girls basketball is bad enough for whatever reason but those teams split into 3 teams was horrific.

That ain’t a new thing. Nixa athletics have had their fair share of move ins over the years. JP is just smart enough to get them to play football no matter the cost. Bball player that needs to shoot hoops before school during football season? Sure, not a problem. Just come catch some passes on Friday night. JP gets it boys, you don’t have to be 1000% committed to football 1000% of the time to be successful.

Webb is like Kearney in a lot of ways. Both dominate Class 4 and are pedestrian in class 5. At least Webb nabbed a championship in Class 5. Kearney was sucked into a black hole during their time in Class 5 until the football gods pulled them out of purgatory and landed them back into Class 4.

As for this year's Webb team, they have no deep pass defense. Just throw the ball deep and you're assured a TD.

Kearney made the 2013 C5 semifinals ran into an all star LSW moving to their permanent C6 home. They will do just fine when they move back up.

For what it's worth Webb City played schools like Lebanon, Camdenton and KC Central back in the SWC days because they needed opponents. Travel (for football) was just as bad back then as now. But there are factors that could possibly make a re-tread of the old SWC worth considering. If the likes of Nevada and McDonald Co can compete I could see adding them, along with CJ, to Webb Carthage Joplin and Neosho. That's a decent SW Conference with room to schedule up or down depending on each schools preference.

The other thing is Jr High sports in this new conf are terrible. Not because of Lebanon and waynesville but because of all the SPS middle schools. Was talking to a parent the other day who said they've been playing these SPS middle schools in volleyball, making all these trips to Springfield and these schools don't even know how to play. So far in 3 games haven't seen even one successful overhand serve from any of those schools. The final scores are like 25-3, 25-4, etc with SPS only points being serve errors. Maybe other sports are better I don't know. But I don't see that arrangement lasting long.

I’ve been told the basketball is good at the middle school level in SPS, but one has to wonder if it will seem that way since there are so many middle schools. Could be watered down. Similar to West Plains having 6 middles schools that play basketball.

Best Missouri QBs Coming out of High School in history?

Robert Long (Macon High School 1978-1981) had a DII season to remember in 1985 for Fort Hays St. Three 400 yard passing games, four 300 yard passing games, 3398 yards on 458 attempts with 275 completions (both still school records). His name litters the career record books still. Plus, his stache is legendary.

If we’re going into that era, Harold Noirfalise of Houston, MO.
Before my time, but I’ve heard stories about him. He’s still got quite a few entries in the Missouri Southern record books as well.

Some others I saw when they played in HS

Drew Newhart(Cameron)- threw for over 10,000 yards at Missouri Western, probably the best QB they’ve had this millennium. Pretty cool that he grew up and played HS ball about 20 min from there.
(Don’t know how I mentioned Cziernewski and not this guy, the game I saw was MoCo vs Cameron in the dome LOL)

Paxton DeLaurent(Camdenton)- regardless of his stats, the guy was very good at moving around the pocket, not tucking and running it, but moving around the pressure and getting the throw made.
I believe he’s the starter at SEMO now but I could be wrong.

Toots, I would like to apologize for giving you such a hard time.
As a token of this I would like to send you a new pager. Please message me your post office box. I hope we can start clean from this moment forward.

Some of my favs that I’ve seen over the years…
Didn’t heavily follow any of these guys in college, but saw them play at some point when they were in HS

Adam Barmann(West Platte ‘03)went on to start for the Jayhawks on and off his Soph-Senior year. Even saw a decent amount of action as a true freshman there.

Adam Hinspeter(Centralia ‘04) probably statistically the best QB Missouri Southern has had in the last 20 years. His senior year was one of the last times the Lions had a winning record.
He threw for over 9,000 yards while at Southern

Eric Cziernewski (Montgomery County) was an absolute dude at CMSU(I know it’s called UCM now)
