Looked at BEDS. Newman bounced up to 144. St Ed’s has dropped hard to 122 ( 8 man has a 120 cut so I’m not sure if they are 8 or 11). So if gariigan plays newman, they would be the bigger school.
I grew up with the closest town of Vinje. The James brothers watered their horses there it’s claimed.
They played 8 man this past year. They could have played 11 man but had a meeting to see how many would come out last fall and the numbers weren't there to play 11 man.
Didn't know about her wanting to break her mom's records. Appreciate the perspective.
She would likely have to move away from her family and friends to implement that move. She will be moving on soon enough. And facing those bigger challenges.
May have wanted to stay at 11 unless they have a larger graduating class since the state said the 120 was going to be a hard break. Rockford was forced up for two years and went 0-9, dropped down to 8 man and went to the finals.
I know. Algona would not really be much of an upgrade in competition. Stupid to transfer there. Audi plays with Molly Joyce at Garrigan. Garrigan is better than Algona.
They are happy playing together at Garrigan. They won the State Championship last year. They want to repeat as Champions. At Garrigan. They sure as hell aren’t transferring to Algona. That would make no sense at all. It would not enhance their careers.
There's absolutely no reason to turn her life upside down. She's already committed.
I chuckled a wee bit at Connor's expense when I read the last line of his story about Audi winning the discus throw at the state meet. And I quote...
"Crooks will have a year to develop her game and attempt to make the jump from high school to college sports as formidable as possible."
I don't think "formidable" was the word he was looking for in relation to her transition.

More like a newer version of Courtney Paris.
What were the main differences between Paris and Lee? I thought Lee was a good comp.
I'm expecting her to be a mix of Lisa Leslie, Candace Parker, and Lauren Jackson, but better. Anything less will be a disappointment.
