Carefull with the Webb stream. It has been very subpar this year. Probably why the stadium has still been full from 3-6. I would pop on that Nixa game if you havent seen that great wall of pancakes with the little cherry on top running behind it. Defense will give up a lot. If a team can stop that run then they can take them down.
Watched Nixa at Webb and got to see the future Olympian and NFL lineman.
Proximity Friday is the Webb game … have not had a chance to watch Platte County in person in a long time. Covered Aurora at Platte County in 1999, saw them at the dome in 2000, covered the semifinal at Carl Junction in 2001 and the following week watched them win another title and 2002 covered the Seneca at Platte County game where they held a 2,600 yard running back to under 50 yards.
Have always had respect for the program, Coach Sherman was very polite and professional all the times we spoke and enjoyed conversations with him the Dome. He was one of many coaches who would come up to the press box and talk with the media and when interviews were done, he would hold court and share some stories.
Chip Sherman and Fred Bouchard were both coaches from other parts of the state that Anvil Welch and I would enjoy catching up with when we were in St. Louis for championship weekend.
