Wow. I thought the alliance was to stop these blow outs. StF.is definitely sand bagging D2. They have beaten all teams by a 32 pt.average.
Why sand bagging? Did u ever think the other teams in D2 gotta step up their play?? They’re in D2 not by choice. The HHSAA chose this n now because they are dominating it’s their fault??? Cmon man…
No sand bagging, St. Francis didn’t even know if they would have enough players to field a team especially since their red-shirted QB was contemplating focusing on baseball and their 18 or 19 year old junior RB was considering hopping on the KPT Bus that leaves for Mililani each day.
