Last year I was highly critical that the Ozarks wasn’t very well represented on the football academic all-state team. A grand total of 16 teams and 47 players from the Ozarks made it last year. Well let’s give a big round of applause to all the coaches who took the time to nominate [...]

The 2009 Missouri Football Coaches Association All-State Teams have been announced and class 3 is dominated by Ozarks squads. Cassville leads the way with 6 first team, 2 second team, and 2 third team selections. And Coach David Large repeated as class 3 coach of the year. Rogersville grabbed 4 picks overall including [...] Folks, this is telling it like it is. Caleb Schaffitzel selected offensive and defensive player of the year in the Mid-Lakes conference. Schaffitzel was also a unanimous selection on both the first team offense and defense, as was Zach Wallace of Skyline. Fair Grove’s Jason O’Neal was selected as coach of the year. [...] A great Saturday of football. Some great performances, a couple of fantastic finishes, and three area teams took a step closer to state titles. The Big 8 had a big day. And a future high school legend took his last trip to the end zone. CLASS 1 Valle Catholic 42, Miller 6 Just a dominant effort by the [...] Alright folks. Quarterfinal Saturday. Here’s what to look for. CLASS 1 Valle Catholic (12-0) at Miller (10-2) After getting the past their recent nemesis, Thayer, the Cardinals come up against an even more formidable challenge in Valle Catholic. The Warriors have scored an astonishing 125 points in their first two playoff games. And average over 45 ppg on [...] CLASS 1 Adrian 28, Greenfield 25 (OT) After Jamie Gray gave Greenfield the fourth quarter lead, Adrian got a TD and 2 point conversion with 2 seconds left to send the game to overtime. Greenfield had the ball first, was held, and Jordan Bryant converted a 37 yard FG to give them some points. But Adrian’s Skylar [...] Monday night is rematch night. Seven of the ten games feature teams playing each other for the second time this year. Six of those being replays of district games. Two of the remaining three are repeats of games from last year. Some things are quite different, some are exactly the same. Here’s what to look [...] It was almost a perfect night to be an eagle on the gridiron. 4 out of 5 Eagle teams playing won including Pierce City knocking off undefeated Warsaw. Fair Grove, Mt. View-Liberty, and Nixa also soared to wins. Only Jasper falls from the feathered football ranks. Enough with the bird puns. A great night of football [...] “Playoffs?” – Jim Mora Yes, coach. We’re talking about the playoffs. Because they’re here. Thirty teams from the Ozarks seek the state championship in five different classifications. Thirty teams are done for the year. At least nine more schools will start basketball practice after tomorrow night. Here’s what to watch for. CLASS 1 Lockwood (6-4) at Thayer (8-1) This [...] It was simply a glorious couple of nights for football. While I enjoy catching a game indoors, I think football should be played outside. The elements are part of the game. And Thursday night was a football cathedral. Wind & rain. Mud & muck. Slipping, sliding, sloshing. It was beautiful man. A perfect end to [...] |
