Anyone know when brackets will be released?

I heard Stanley Pete from Laurel is going up to wrestle also.

Malvern also plays by a different set of rules than the DIAA don't they?

Sallies, MT and a few others could have scheduled caravel this year. They knew what caravel had coming back and made the choice not to do it. I think caravel would have beaten sallies worse than MP. The big boys, as you call them, didn't take the opportunity to prove it this year.

Talk like this is cheap now. Next year and the years beyond will be the test

I’d definitely say Delaware’s best bets are Stratton, Andrew’s, Lucian, Radecki, Donahue, and Cael. Still very tough for even the best in Delaware but I think these are the pound for pound best in the state right now.

I think Ricky Jewell can be added to this list as well. But besides him those are the other top guys

I think when February rolls around it’s gonna be CR Sals state final. Both these teams look great and CR is showing results in the dual while Salesianum is winning PA tournaments. They Dual at CR I believe so I hope Delaware live can get down to stream that exciting matchup.

Yeah, I thought it would have been much closer but it seemed Eddie did what he does best and brought that match to his pace and had the gas tank to finish it.

Caravel will struggle to win 5 games next season in 3A. They have beaten up on all the teams on that pathetic schedule long enough. Welcome to BIG BOY football!

There are bad teams in 3A, just not as many as in 2A

Last night CR and Caravel wrestled with CR getting a blowout win. But the featured match was Eddie Radecki vs Trevor Copes. Radecki came out on top 5-2 but overall he had control through the whole match. Fun times watching 2 state champs going at it

it was fun to watch. Radecki seemed to dominate that match and was in control of the whole match. Caravel is young this year and CR is tough. The score does not indicate the match as Radecki was in control the whole time

Caravel will struggle to win 5 games next season in 3A. They have beaten up on all the teams on that pathetic schedule long enough. Welcome to BIG BOY football!

I love Caravel pleading not to go to D3. They are undefeated in a multiyear span. They have 38 kids playing on the football team, all or most on scholarship. Howard had a gripe, they are a public school. St. Marks', the same thing start recruiting better. We all know it happens. If you dominate one division, you have built or rebuilt your program move up and take the challenge. We won every game in the last two years and won the championship game by 40 points, but we can't compete in the next division. Cry me a river!

they some good players, but they will be 2-3 probably in division, and 4-1 out of division. depending on who they play. i say 6-4

CR looked good this past weekend at Ray Oliver. I know St. Marks lost a couple guys but CR really dominated that dual meet last week

I have to throw in with Connor here. So how do we think the Bucs do next year in 3A? My sense is that at worst they are 7-3….probably better.

I stand by what I said earlier in the season, if Caravel was in 3A this year, they make the championship game and honestly I think they beat Middletown or Sallies, they compare favorably to both teams and are probably bigger than Middletown. They will be a playoff team next year in 3A. Remember Middletown has a LB that transferred from a 2A school and that kid is a hell of a player, but Caravel had their way with his defense last year, hell Archmere even had their way with his defense. That kid from Middletown is truly a great player but no greater than any of Caravel’s LBs. Talent compares very favorably in Caravel’s direction. Depth will be Caravel’s Achilles heel, they will be as good as anyone they play, starter for starter but if someone goes down or they are not in great shape, they will lose some games

Howard is not really a public school...you have to apply and be admitted to the vo-tech district, which in turn gives students their first choice of schools as best they can. Funny, almost all Howard students are city residents, more true regarding the football players. That's probably recruiting, but no one is going to touch that topic because it will get, you know, misconstrued.

LOL

By allowing the patients to run the asylum. Newark charter is not the problem, the need for Newark charter is. Christina SD, like all the other SDs in NCC, have not had people on the board who have the best interest of education in mind for the last two decades. School boards and district offices are more concerned with keeping up the facade that all is well instead of dealing with the problems they created, most specifically discipline and the lack there of.
