Hey Coaches I have found a new way not to lose. If you lose just state that it was your JV and not your varsity. If you win, then it is a varsity game. Who enters a varsity tournament and then takes your JV. I would like to know when Franklin moved #34 Johnson to pitching JV. To go along with this they also moved Kelly, thomas, Neatherland,bradford,and Crooke. Hey look we both started 6 of the same players in both games along with the same pitchers. I guess that Franklin Parish just didn't trust their players. Yes they beat Ruston and Wossman but who else have they beat in their district.
I can live with being beat , I whave been beaten and will get beaten again. Coaches that know me know that I do not play games. If I get beaten, i take it and go on. If I didn't II would not schedual Neville, West Ouachita, Southwood and Sterlington.I am not scared of being beaten but want my wins when I am lucky enough to get one. Franklin Parish should look at theirselves and know that they will have to beat some most of their District games to get into the playoffs. by changing a lose to maintain their ratings may not mean that they get in.

we're going to need to get a ruling on this tournament from the lhsaa, or the softball coaches association. i'm sorry coaches, but i am caught in the middle on this issue. i was not there like you were and i have no idea if this was varsity or jv.

can someone please call coach nielson at st amant, or bj at the lhsaa and get an official ruling for all of us. you guys and gals can explain this much better than i could because you were there.

Ken, This si not your fault nor is it up to yopu to decide. This is a decision that the coach and supporters of Franklin Parish must live with. They are ,like us, trying to keep their power ratings up. With the way teams are bracketed, wins and losses are very important. the system will work as long as everyone plays the same. However it is unjust when some don't. I will contact someone for a ruling just for satisfaction, but I know now that it will not effect the ratings. thanks agin for your help.
