Field Conditions

I see Central Cambria has changed their game on Friday to Saint Francis. Is there any other changes for this weekend because of field conditions.

Agree. Clairton and Wade are still blaming that soggy field at CT instead of owning the fact that Berlin was the superior team and played on the same soggy field.223113 wrote:Something interesting I've noticed, over the years:

Odd how that works out.
This is true.......to an extent. I think it largely depends on the strengths of each team. If a team who relies on speed, backs who can cut, quick passes, spread type offenses will not be as efficient as a team that runs 60 times a game. The speedy team may be the better team but will not play as on a sloppy field. But, it should never be an excuse for losing, you just can't ignore that it may change the game in some way.223113 wrote:Something interesting I've noticed, over the years:

So, maybe field conditions can expose which team can overcome unexpected adversity better. And, maybe it exposes the "one trick pony", so to speak.CCDevil2012 wrote:This is true.......to an extent.
