Vanlue most likely is done. I'm just waiting on a news article that makes it official. I think they only returned maybe 8 kids totalThey seem to always be in question, but I've heard more concerns about Vanlue this year than ever. Cory-Rawson was in question too but now have changed conferences and hired a young, new coach who seems to have enough kids out to field a team
Those 2 probably should be 8 man teams going forwardWhich teams on the brink might not be able to pull it together this year?

I mean, it’s June. They are scheduled to play a full conference schedule. They must think they have some sort of chance at this point, otherwise this kind of thing got Hardin-Northern the boot.I would be shocked if Dayton Jefferson Township plays football this season. They never played due to covid last year.

That makes sense, for some reason I thought it was an immediate switchStill in the BVC for two more years
St. Bernard is another one down there that’s struggling big with numbers.Which teams on the brink might not be able to pull it together this year?

well, they share a field with a private catholic in the same neighborhood that can recruit as they please.St. Bernard is another one down there that’s struggling big with numbers.
Yeah, but SB-EP football staring down the barrel has been in the cards for a while. Really small inner-ring “suburb” districts have faced uphill battles (see: Richmond Heights up in Cleveland area), and the resurgence of Bacon (plus the availability of other options + transience in population) doesn’t help matters.well, they share a field with a private catholic in the same neighborhood that can recruit as they please.
Don't quote me here, but of the schools mentioned so far here's what I found from googling/their athletic websites --Because I am a huge fan of this topic and it NEVER gets old, how many of these said schools field soccer teams?

These schools have soccer: Cincinnati Country Day, Finneytown (3-time state champ), Cory-Rawson, and Mathews (co-ed)
These schools don't: MVCA, Vanlue, Jefferson Township, Sebring, Federal Hocking
I’ve heard st Thomas aquinas not sure how true
Wow. that's something. some of the catholic schools would fit real well but there's no chance the publics allow that. who would logically replace the two?both would fit well in the MVC.I know Finneytown had about 30 kids on the roster at the start of last season.
They (along with Deer Park) are both in dire need of a league change.
Finneytown hasn't won a CHL league game since 2014.
Don't think that will ever happen at St Thomas. Too many Alumni backers. Don't worry they will get the players.Aquinas very seriously considering 8 man this fall.

I would like to think so but this came from someone who is very, very close to the program. They still dont have a coach yet. It will be interesting whatvthe next few weeks brings.Don't think that will ever happen at St Thomas. Too many Alumni backers. Don't worry they will get the players.
i would think Harrison and Norwood would be the best fits?Very few legitimate replacement options.
I haven't heard their names come up yet but I think Northwest and Mt. Healthy would be two solid additions. They'd give the league a boost in football and basketball and there wouldn't be a net loss in any other sports.

Is the losing getting to the kids and fewer are coming out or are the numbers in the district going down? I graduated from Finneytown in 2005, but haven't lived in Cincinnati since so I'm not up on happenings in Finneytown besides the new schools coming.
