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 [...] 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 [...] Some teams rise up when the stakes are high. Others fall flatter than a Kansas wheat field. Seeing a team make the transition from one who falls to one who stands strong can be exhilarating. Watching a team go the other way can be painful beyond all measure. Friday’s action showed off some of [...] When did basketball season start? Seriously. 54-41? 60-41? 69-63? 7-6? Oh wait, that’s more like it. Yes it was an offense happy week 6. But the defense was still out there. Nixa & Camdenton played a 7-6 headknocker. Pierce City & Miller only put up 25 points combined, and even #1 Monett only managed 14 [...] We’ll be at the halfway point after tonight. That means the weekly rankings, undefeated list, & winless list will debut this season next week. Both lists have been shrinking each week & I think the same happens tonight. At least two winless teams will get their first W as we have two 0-4 [...] “Oh, it’s on. It’s definitely on.” – Double Down Trent, Swingers Yeah, that’s right. Three weeks of chaos is enough. I’m bringing the heat this week. Takin’ it to the house. Goin’ all the way. Throwin’ down at the hoedown. No double digit misses this week, no sir. In fact, I wouldn’t [...] |
