Dang, that's a lot to lose skill wise. Hope y'all recover.

I know for the last 4/5 years the Raiders have had numerous players injured. Are they not physically tough or mentally tough or a combination?

Thats a poor question. Injuries can happen to anyone.

Would you ask if someone was out academically if they are DUMB? I bet not.

I don’t think it is a poor question. Yes injuries happen, but year after year at the same school. I wonder why you don’t see this at SLC, Denton Ryan, Aledo, WOS, etc., however at Raider land you see it year after year after year.  I am wondering why?

I think you do see it at other schools. The correct question is why don’t they have more depth?

Lumberton have about 40-45 kids on the side line ?

Two broken collarbones, broken hand, two shoulder tears, and an unconfirmed knee injury from what I’ve heard, but, yeah, probably not mentally tough enough for your liken.

sounds like some tough luck injuries. although you can probably play with a broken hand. looks like tough luck for the Raiders. hopefully backups can come through

Hope so. He left off a concussion protocol on a major offensive starter.

I guess the inference here is Lumberton athletes are genetically inferior to the overall population?

Thats an amazing thing to state or even infer.

Maybe that’s just your perception. Definitely not my inference. It’s wayyyyy deeper than that.

Most times injuries are just dumb bad luck.  Now if the same team seems to have clusters of injuries year to year,  there may be other factors at play, such as conditioning or off season training.

I agree 100%

Broken collar bones and concussions are probably exempt from the conditioning discussion. One of the shoulder tear/separations is on a very fit athlete too.
