sig220 Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Depends. If you are in a position where a 3 way tie may occur with that team, most districts use the point differential tie breaker and it would behoove you to score as many as possible. If you are playing the cellar dweller, why risk injury to starters? If your 2nd and third string score a bunch, oh well. I was at a game that ended up 99 - 0, but the winning team pulled their starters at first quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invictus Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Running up the score is classless. This is HIGH SCHOOL. Winning is not the most important thing that kids should be learning at this age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WordMan2 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 If I can't stop you, you deserve to win by how many points you can out on the board. I can see bringing your 2nd or 3rd string but you still play every play hard and try to do your best. No slack attack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you cannot tell a kid who does not play as much to lay down. They have pride too and want to show the coach what they do. If your team is not very good, I say work harder and get better. Use those butt whippen's as motivation for the next year. We are raising a bunch of sissy's. Life after high school is ten times tougher. The strong survive the weak do not. Pop the titty out of their mouths. By the way, one day after high school is real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riding Solo Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I was on the Orangefield team that beat Kountze 99-0. We was leading 66-0 at half. There is not enough kids to pull every starter at the 3A level. Our coaches did the best they could. It was not the coaches fault that Kountze gave up and quit that night. They repaided the favor in basketball that same year. LOL!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfd814 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 If its a run away gaem, pull the studs....let the 2nd 3rd stringers try different positions.....that's better then the team trying not to score on you because you look so bad you cannnot get a 3 and out on your own.
