Chestnut Ridge

Post by footballfan1 »

I am going to post this in football forum. When was the last time a District V school won a football District Championship and wrestling and basketball in same school year? When was last time a District VI team accomplished this? I just think they are loaded with athletes right now and I heard the Middle School and Elem. levels are also looking really solid.

just curious on these questions.

Ridge has had an impressive run this year and I think in some sports they will still be on top next year (wrestling), but they are losing a very talented group of Senior athletes this year. I'm not expecting the football team to have the same success next year. They are losing a lot of Seniors who were 3 year starters and not a lot of underclassmen have much playing experience.

Are you trying to compare D5 to D6? Because other than wrestling CR would be pretty average in basketball and football had they played in D6 and wouldn't have won D6 in either of those two sports.

False- CR would have competed well in D6AA football this past year. Tyrone won it and CR played ok against them. CR really could have beaten Central who most considered the top team for much of the year.

Basketball- D5 is no comparison to D6.

Okay so they would have been above average in football and still lost...in a year they were "loaded with athletes"

I guess if the definition of OK is losing by 2 TD's on your own field to a team running the same 10 plays then yea Ridge did OK. As far as the younger players being ready and "loaded" you cant tell that yet. Things change big time even between Jr High and Varsity for many many kids.

So other people notice the no adjustments too?

CR was also the runner up in District 5/6 AA soccer.

I've noticed a very strong group of athletes at CR currently as well. I do not have this knowledge, but does anyone know if this could be the best collective group of athletes to ever go through CR at one time? I really have no history of the district to reference.
