Then they get sassy after losing another regional title game. Heck, I would be too if coach whatIfft let me down year after year. Four failures in five years. Dang!

We don't draw from a surrounding area, we get the kids who live in Dover. Early on we had success because we had some special talent('98-'02) but it became clear that talent wasn't going to be there every year so they implemented(a year early) the spread so that even on down years Dover could compete. The formula has worked, 4 regional finals in 5 years. Is this the time to take the next step? Cards are stacked against us...but Friday night Dover will show up and compete for 48 minutes. No lead is safe(for them or the opponent) when the Tornadoes take the field.

Hello sarcasm calling yngcmhs, are you there??

yngcmhs;974303 wrote:I think some of the chip on the shoulder attitude we have comes from the diservice that you and others do us by saying all stars or handpicked team; I think it draws the students (athletes and non-athletes), alumni, faculty and parents closer. We too have a very, very special school.

We got it easy, if you were born in Dover or Dover TWP you are in. Talent and test scores be damned we are Dover.
