”Finish
Strong!!!”
The 2009 regular
season is down to the final 3 games already!
This season
has absolutely flown by. Now comes the part of the schedule where
every game, every quarter, every play matters…the stretch
run! Three perennial powerhouses lie in the way….Akron St
Vincent St Mary, Ursuline and Columbus Bishop Watterson. This is
the time of year when, as the saying goes….big time players,
make big time plays in big time games! Two separate groups of Irishmen,
followed by a flock of Eagles are who stand between us and the 2009
OHSAA play-offs.
We’re
currently ranked 1st in the DIII – Region 9 computer play-off
standings. We are also currently ranked #1 in the State of Ohio
in the AP Division III rankings. To remain in the top four, the
Cards will have to finish the season strong. The first step is this
week against ASVSM. The last two trips there have been some of our
toughest battles in years. The Irish will no doubt have revenge
on their minds and that part of the game, the mental part is huge.
The Cards need to be prepared for this stretch run, as all three
teams we face will also be facing the play-off standings in their
respective regions. It’s crunch time gentlemen….let’s
see who wants it more….let’s see what you got!
This week is
Mission #8. The ASVSM Irish! Take care of business, men!
Best of luck to Coach Fecko, the coaching staff and the 2009 Cardinal
Mooney Cardinals!
Always,
The Rock
