Does Webb City win another GAME this season?

I noticed the 8th grade was shut out by Republic but maybe that Republic class is really good.

Republic I think is getting ready to start doing some really good things.

Wasn't Webb 9-3 in 2016? ... it's easy to see how anyone jumping off the J Rod train might have been over-reacting. This team is probably going 3-9 and are led by a guy who had three losing seasons in five years at Seneca.

I don't have anything against the new guy, but Webb has had one of the state's top coaches — if not the top coach — since 1988.

Right now, I'm not sure you could make a convincing argument that they have one of the top five coaches in the COC.

2016 was 9-4. For some reason the first game (a loss to CJ) is absent from Webb's mshsaa page but it is on CJ's.

They lost the first game to a very good CJ team, a game in which Webb had a stunning ~8 turnovers. The next week they had 4 turnovers at Carthage (a C5 state semifinalist that year) and lost. Then later in the season they dropped another one to Ozark, who btw beat Carthage.

Losing 3 games in the regular season seemed atrocious at the time because look at the run that was coming to a close. Looking back none of those 4 losses were bad. They beat CJ convincingly in district then lost to the state champion in the quarter round. Really not a bad season even if it seemed that way at the time. Just had a very clumsy start that probably cost them two games that otherwise they might (?) have won.
