Re: What if Alex Hoenstine transferred to BG

My understanding is no.  They don't take senior transfers in any case. I will admit I'm no 100% sure of this but it is what I was told.

Re: What if Alex Hoenstine transferred to BG

What grade is he going to be in? If he is going to be a senior BG wouldn't take him. They have a school policy that states they will not take any student (male of female) who is going in to their senior season. The reason for a transfer at that point is almost always athletics (cue the next 15 posts...

Re: Tough News For BG...

You'll get no argument from me regarding the overuse of kids in the off-season. I think it's flat out ridiculous. He can commit to the schools that have told him will hold his offer anytime he likes. Teams do not like to rescind scholarship offers once they are made due to injury. It's a bad look fo...

Re: Tough News For BG...

Thankfully for him, the schools that have offered him have more integrity and experience in these situations than is exhibited in your post and kept their offers to him in place. Athletes get injured all the time and the number of players who've overcome ACL injuries is literally to many to mention....

Re: BG girls

I've been told there are 3 girls (I know their names but don't feel right putting that information on a public website without ever talking to those involved)who will not go out for basketball at BG this year. My understanding is they are playing AAU but will not play for Guilfoyle and have not part...

Re: Week Two District Playoffs Scores/Schedule

I never understood why people care what a parent pays to send their kid to a school of their choosing.  Why is it anyone's business if they can afford something or not? It's like going around the cafeteria and announcing which kids get reduced lunches.  It's so bizarre.  Public school is free, priv...

Re: HS Basketball Scores 2/8 - 2/13

BG lost 78-71 to BA. Great high school basketball game. Bellwood was up 12 or 14 at the half, BG cut it to 4 and Bellwood went back up 14. From there BG made a furious rally and tied the game with under 2 minutes to go. Davis from Bellwood hit a Steph Curry like 3 with a hand in his face to give the...

Re: Scores 1/18-1/23

Regarding the Richland/BG game, BG was up 3 at the half and played the worst 3rd qtr I've seen from them this season and was down 8 I think going in to the 4th. They pulled within 1 twice midway through the 4th and lost Richland's best 3 point shooter who both times hit shots to put them back up 4. ...

Re: Saltsburg vs Homer-Center

This should be a great game and even though I live in Altoona I'm thinking about going to it. As for District 6A, I've actually seen all 4 teams play (Saltsburg/Central, BG/CC, BC/BM, & Homer/Richland) and IMHO Homer with their overall size should be the favorite. While I think Saltsburg has a n...
