The 2 out of states forfeits actually hurt their seed as they can’t get bonus points for those games.Behind this coaching staff in it's second year which blew the chance for back to back championships. Last year at some point during the games they pitched Joey 13 times regular season last year ruining him for the tournament. Two out of state teams forfeited giving them 2 free wins so they are going to end up with a some what reasonable seed this year. Looking at the rankings if they finish 7th and win their first playoff game Caravel would have to play Dover in the Quarter finals which is the same team they play tonight. I don't think that Caravel will be the powerhouse it was in the past with the coaching staff that is in place currently, simply based on the track record of their 10 year at HVT prior.
Bonus points are only based on the opponents win/loss percentage, and both of those teams could have a better than .500 record. Are you saying the forfeited games won't count in Caravel's official record?The 2 out of states forfeits actually hurt their seed as they can’t get bonus points for those games.
According to the playoff points Newark Charter is #2 and Dover is #4Just going by current maxpreps I know that they aren't accurate but I was just using it as a starting point.
They should be counted as unplayed and their index should be based on 18 games. I called the Episcopal scam way back then. Caravel schedules a double header and only played one to keep their pitching inline for St. Marks.Bonus points are only based on the opponents win/loss percentage, and both of those teams could have a better than .500 record.

It’s called baseball Different then any other sportI still couldn't believe my eyes watching that game last night and Caravel beating Dover. I was told that it was Dover's 4th starter and the kid threw 105 pitches and went inning for inning with Caravels #1

The DIAA rule is clear. Any postponed games need to be rescheduled at the next possible date available. No available date from 3/24??? The Episcopal game would have made 4 games in 6 days. Poor scheduling, but nothing like Salesianum's 6 in 9 days. Hell, Caravel actually had 19 games scheduled for most of the season.
Caravel should be 12-4 with their index based on 18 games.
Oh Tommie!!!
Yeah episcopal and Loyola both cancelled on caravel... caravel can’t beat a team if the other team isn’t willing to play themumm Episcopal forfeited the game to Caravel.. If Caravel cancelled the game the FFT would have went to Episcopal
Then why is the game not even Loyola’s schedule? Ummm how do you get a forfeit over someone who said they didn’t play you??Yeah episcopal and Loyola both cancelled on caravel... caravel can’t beat a team if the other team isn’t willing to play them
The only sports that I am aware of contracts actually being signed is football. All good on the explanation.it’s forfeit because they had a contract and the other team couldn’t play the game . The Loyola game was postponed due to weather and Loyola could not find a date they were willing to travel to Bear. Especially with their league schedule beginning Out of league forfeits or games don’t matter to MIAA teams as only league games count for their standings or playoff seeding. So they just took the game off their website. CA had contract they gave enough time for Loyola to try and make up and got FFT
The Loyola thing makes sense but I don't understand why Episcopal didn't play the first game of the doubleheader.[/QUOTE
I don’t know why maybe they were short on pitching , maybe their field couldn’t handle two games after rains, maybe there was a conflict in time with players other obligations. Who knows

Then why did it say postponed for forever? Moreover, play the game and take your lumps. I can also promise you that the lessor sports do not have actual contracts. Ask any AD. I did. Curious to see how the issue is resolved at the seeding meeting. Remember, just because a school posts something doesn't mean its true.and there goes Soccers CA gaming the system conspiracy theory lol BOOM!

Have a great day.
said someone from Caravel....yeah ok some sports dont have contracts mainly girl sports or socoer but they also have no recourse with the DIAA for pts if they dont play nor can they appeal for FFT points if they dont play CA had a contract and Loyola and Episcopal chose not to play and CA was able to appeal to DIAA and get a FFT because they had a contract .. its that simple ... No one was gaming anything,,,
And as was reported earlier Episcopal chose not to play two due to lack of pitching not Caravel and your assertion CA was gaming the system to beat St Marks was dead wrong..
I think Mox has done a good job going.This is getting to be a strange thread. Caravel had a good record and a solid coaching staff.
There are not a lot of Coach Nicks around. Anybody would suffer by comparison especially his immediate successor.
I do support the program go to every game and cheer for everyone on that team. As for talking to Moxley about his "throwing" program he said that I had nothing to worry about my son was in good had and the staff had his best interests at heart. That was not a whole truth because for 2 season's his shoulder has been ruined but the only thing that they this is going to help is PT and he goes 3 times a week.
Very true. Like I said, I had a hard time following the thread. Wish nothing but him and his son the best. Yes the forum is good for venting, or so at least I have heard.Ikey I can see why he is upset. His son finally makes varsity his sr year and then the injury.. I am sure its frustrating and obviously he's looking to place blame somewhere.. but like you said this forum isn't going to help or fix an issue.. works for venting though
Guy's I know that it comes of as whining about my son. Truth be told that was last year when he made varsity junior year and right as his injury set in coach pulled him aside and told him he was moving him to jv to get more rep's so that he could get back up to varsity. They handed him the score book, then I asked the questions about his situation with the team held my tongue and watched. I didn't say another word until the regular season was over and he didn't get called back up for playoffs, because after 6 games he told one of the coaches on jv that Mox said he was here to get rep's at first not do the book have a Freshman do it and put me in. It was wrong but I back his choice 100%. My rants aren't about my son even if he was healthy enough to play Cole Reynold is 6'5" you earn playing time in high school I hate daddy ball and playing favorites. I worry about the players who tell me that they hate being there but parents won't let them quit. I worry about the senior that after leaving the team for 2 years to get a medical condition under control quit because even if he was better in practice he didn't play.
Parents have gone to the ad and he is leaving at the end of the year but has asked for everyone who has a problem to put it in writing. I have been told to worry about my own kid in one of these forums, well even though I only have one son if I have coached you at one time or another you're always going to be one of my kids and I have 1 s and 3 kids on this squad.
Maybe I should just shut up sorry everyone sorry for giving a damn about fair play and the safety of young men.
