Facts !!!!!I would put a hold on that until Nixa has won a handful of trophy’s. So far the case is dusty
Are you talking to yourself here? We really wonder sometimes.I’ve never learned how to post pictures on mosports so it’s easier for me to copy and post a tweet. Really not that difficult to understand you lazy socialist liberal living off the government teet. Get a real job.
Without him, I think they’re still better than Marshfield and Rog, and could at least be relatively competitive against CJ (MAYBE)Without that kid Hillcrest is probably worse than Marshfield
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.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.
When do you predict this will happen?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.
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.
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.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.
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.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.
If we’re going into that era, Harold Noirfalise of Houston, MO.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.
