I agree Nevada.
Sometimes thing are bad before they get good. People suffer all the time if the reward is worth it. I started working three crew three years ago. My first games I was thinking "this is boring". The more I worked it however the better it got. You get more off ball coverage is an advantage I like. Pay is still a issue at State games for smaller schools. 1A and 2A is still two crew. I had the boys championship game and believe you me i was run preety hard. We still run 2 crew for C and JV games but most all our V games are three crew. I'm sure in time the rest of the world will come around and see the advantages outweigh the cost.

The strength of your partner didn't help that much either with such a big rivalry game. You do get more off the ball coverage and there certainly are some major advantages to 3-crew but if you hustle, work hard, work and communicate well with your partner you can call a good game too. Coming from a 2-crew specialist.

Specialist? I'm sure you are special, just not in the way you are thinking.
Is the weather getting any warmer?

They are 3A I believe and they didn't even make state. They were favored for regions and didn't get it done. I called the 3A regional at Grace.

Really. I thought they would be pretty good this year. I watched them a couple times last year when I was up there to do some games. I went to HS with their administrator and his son is the point guard - pretty good little point guard as I remember.
