So IF STA wins state. Do you think there should be an asterisk by their name? For the record, only one kids transferred from another High School. That student athlete was Milstead. The other two (Markey's) never attended another HS prior to Aquinas. Therefore, this influx of transfers everyone says is not true. Also, Milstead had to sit out a semester of varsity athletics. He did not begin competing until after the 1st semester was over.

My next question is, what would any other coach have done if they were in Parks' place? If the Manhatten or Hutch coach for example were to hear of any kid transferring with decent talent they would welcome them with open arms. I doubt any coach would say, "sorry, we don't to illegitamize our title run".

Will the addition of the Markey's and Milstead help Aquinas' chance at a state title? Absolutly. And so will the 112 pounder (Henes I believe) as a freshman. There is no difference.

No, the real gripe you guys have is the fact that a team other than Manhatten, Hutchison, Emporia, or Goddard is vying for the team title. So rather than accept it, you have to try and tear it down. I hate to tell you this, but from the make up of this team, they are going to be around for a while. You're gonna have to learn to accept it.
