GOOSE CREEK MEMORIAL PATRIOTS

2019 Record: 3-7 Overall; 2-5 District

6th Place in District 9-5A-I

 

The 2019 season was a rough one for new coach Shannon Carter and the Goose Creek Memorial Patriots as they finished on the outside looking in to the Class 5A, Division I playoffs.  Carter is counting on an experienced squad (eight starters return on each side of the ball) to build on last year and return the Patriots to the playoffs for the first time since 2013.

 

COACHING

Head Coach: Shannon Carter

Assistant Coaches: Daniel Ragsdale (Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks), Robert Lewis (Assistant Head Coach/Wide Receivers), Kevin Kennerly (Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers), Cameron Young (Offensive Line), Dwayne Dever (Offensive Line), Tate Gresham (Running Backs), Corey Cook (Wide Receivers), Kyle Consemiu (Tight Ends), Derek Hufnagel (Safeties), Joel McMillan (Cornerbacks), Oluwasegun Adebayo (Defensive Line), McNeil Greenridge (Defensive Line), Jamie Hutchison (Outside Linebackers), Brandon Bohanon (Linebackers)

 

OFFENSE

Eight starters return to the Goose Creek Memorial offense in 2020.  While the starting quarterback position is yet to be finalized, senior running back Brice Lane (1st team all-district) will provide some stability to the rushing game.  The passing game will have a strong receiver corp as senior wide outs Jalen Davis, Jaylon Thompson, Peter Semien and Hosea Lane all return with sophomores Ben Gatson and Omaree Crawford also expected to contribute.  Junior tackles Riley Banks (1st team all-district) and Ethan Dyson return to lead the offensive line.  Look for senior Taaron Roberts to also contribute to the Patriot offense.

 

DEFENSE

Eight starters return to the GCM 3-4 defense in 2020.  Senior defensive ends Richie Rodney (2nd team all-district) and Jaden Gilbert-Burton bring experience to the defensive line. The linebacker corp will be a strength as junior outside linebackers Jayson Gipson (2nd team all-district) and Josiah Rice return along with senior inside linebackers Bryce Johnston (2nd team all-district) and Hector Ochoa.  Junior cornerback Auriel Hector (2nd team all-district) and senior safety Dezmond Johnson return to anchor the Patriot secondary which will also include Crawford.

 

SPECIAL TEAMS

Senior Luis Acosta will handle the place kicking while Johnston will do the punting.  Kick return assignments will be finalized during fall practice.

      So you are saying a star baseball SHOULD be doing full contact football drills during the baseball season as his Baseball team prepares for the playoffs?

      Roger.  I misread your comment. Perhaps the other sports will turn the corner sometime soon.

      I'm going to agree with this. Individual drills would be fine, but a varsity baseball player should not be involved in full pad practices during the baseball season. Especially, if he is a contributing player on a playoff bound baseball team. This is irresponsible and selfish of the AD/HFC.

      If there's a specific situation that started this thread, I don't know the details.  Nor do I care.  But I do have an opinion about what I'm gathering from some of the comments. My opinion: I do believe that an AD should leave the players of a particular sport to their respective head coach during that season.  The varsity players of that sport anyway.  I believe it's a little different concerning the sub varsity players of that sport.  If an AD/HFC decides to grab some JV baseball players for some offseason football stuff during the athletics period, I don't have AS MUCH of a problem with it.  I would still consider it a common courtesy to discuss with the head coach of that particular sport to consider their thoughts on it. I also believe that ALL athletes should be lifting and running all year.  When in a particular season, I believe that the head coach of that sport should control the reigns on that topic to implement some sport specific lifting/running during their season.  But all athletes should be in the weight room year round. As far as playing multiple sports?  I'm an advocate.  I know that the popular idea is for potentially good/great players in a specific sport to "focus" on that sport.  And I agree.. but focusing on one sport doesn't mean stopping the others.  It just means prioritizing time in a way that extra work is put into that specific sport.  After hours, weekends, holidays/summer, etc..  Just because you plan on making a push into college baseball (for example) doesn't mean you can't work on baseball during other sports seasons.  That's exactly what I did.. and countless others.  Plus, it's important to maybe learn how to be a role player in a sport that you're not the best at.  Because that's coming. That's my opinion.  And I come from an era where kids played multiple sports if they knew it would be helping.  Helping their classmates.. or just contributing to school pride.  I hate knowing that there are schools that could be much more competitive if their kids would just come out.  It's hard for me to understand if I'm being honest.
