[Landser, Amer.]

I've recently heard some tidbits that leads me to think things are going to get even better than earlier anticipated for 2010. I've heard that the level of enthusiasm is improving and a few "new" young men are joining the team. (I am not referring to incoming freshmen.)

Please do not read anything into the foregoing statement, for all I am saying is That SC just may be a little better than expected.

I have also heard that the players are working very hard in the off-season; the young men that are not participating in wrestling or basketball have a regimen that they perform, and that's a good thing.

As we all know, the district has good teams and any one team is surely capable of betting the other on a given night. I am not making any predictions, but I am saying that I think SC will do well in 2010.

Paulcssi, time will tell whether your "tidbits" of information are true or untrue. Are you just hoping that the enthusiasm level, the hard work the guys are doing, and the additional players, will boost SC's fortunes in 2010. Also, do you know for a fact that your information is not just scuttlebutt.

Finally, I would like to know, are you a Sheldon Clark fan? I would definitely think so, but if you are, I suspect that you could be hoping and dreaming.

Good luck, Cards, in your endeavors to win the district and region in 2010. But I believe you will have to work extremely hard for this to come to fruition.
