Maybe I'm just an ole fuddy duddy....but prior to the state championship game players were posing on the OF with some WWE championship belt or something. Thought it was extremely arrogant and something a coach wouldn't permit before the biggest game of the year.

Also wonder if there was any pressure from parents. We saw, what we presumed was the dad, get mad and yell to the coach when a sac bunt was executed, and when the kid was going into the dugout he yelled to hilm "they shouldn't have you bunting".

There was way too much of that kind of stuff all season. The Norton game was particularly ugly which was unfortunate given that the Norton coach is employed at Hoban.
