Had a first tonight. Two very talented 7/8 teams. Both could go head to head with a lot of HS teams. In the 2nd game of 8th grade match V fans must be starting to get rude with home girls. I had told a couple of home 7/8 boys to knock it off or get out. They shut up. As for the parents, I frankly have done so much HS basketball that I tune stuff out and rarely hear anything. Must have also been some serious whining by V fans over wanted illegal hits (They weren't) and an in the net call (she was.) Unbeknownst to me, home coach (a class act) walks over to the net, stands right beside me and addresses the fans. Tells the entire V side that their behavior was absolutely unacceptable and turns to the V coach and says, "Coach, do something." She in turn (also a class act) reams the fans and tells them it's "about the girls" and to get their act together. Before the 3rd game of the match, home coach asks if I know who school rep is for the night. I told her if she had any more trouble with the fans getting on her or her girls to let me know and I would immediately have them removed. I've never seen this at a MS
VB game. I know in HS soccer and B'ball this school is always known for outlandish bad behavior, but I've never seen anything like this in MS
VB! Have you?
