So what does the team look like overall this year, any projections and players to watch. Playoff bound this year?
Thanks

I saw some good things, we lead at halftime. A typical scrimmage, penalties stopped a couple of drives, a couple of dropped passes. I was impressed with the D-line they seem to have good pressure, but some missed assignments from DB's gave up a couple of big plays. Hard to tell about O-line, Spalding had some studs on their defense, hopefully we don't see another player like 90 this year!

If the parents of the foolball players would make their boys ride the school bus rather than transport them in the big SUV's they would be more asertive and aggresive on the field. You have to protect yourself on the bus, no air, no music, no pizza and no sugar from mom.

IN GOD WE TRUST

you must be thinking about elementary & primary students. the SUV {car rider} ratio is much greater for this age of students. A true Pike Patriot Homeowner would support his or her local sports team instead of making them out to be soft. You call yourself a patriot and always sign off with "IN GOD WE TRUST". Think about what that means and compare that to your comment.Yes, you have a right to say what you like, just as anyone has the right to deliver their child to the front door of a public school in the cab of a tractor trailer if they wish... GO PIRATES !!!

I know what I'm talking about. I research every detail before I address a issue. I pay for the school buses only to fight the traffic jams all the soccer moms make with their little prince. Take the "soft" away now. That is whats wrong with our county and country! And quit taking them lunch pizza's!

IN GOD WE TRUST
BE STRONG RIDE THE BUS

this was a scrimmage game so the coaches were playing a lot of players that may or may not see regular season play.

i was pleased with what i saw and i think that PC will have a good season. playoffs??? maybe, just maybe. we need to see some on field leadership in a strong way from the older boys. but they definitely have the potential.
