im on edina JGA and i agree, you guys played one hell of a game/tourney. we didnt expect a game at all and you guys played us to the wire. its to bad the refs were bad in all games, the call in OT was weak...we got really weak calls in the cenntential game too. great weekend

Don't generalize the GR community, please. There's plenty of people that still showed great support. Those players aren't mistreated by anyone that I know of. They're a good bunch and are treated as such. Congratulations on a good run at the state tourney. I personally only got to see the Edina game, but I came away impressed with their play, and in the reports I got on the other games, I heard nothing but good things.

I dont think its crap i played junior gold in rapids. I agree that not the whole community looks down on them but a good few do. I will stick by my word about the refs though they would love to see junior gold gone in rapids.

I think the supporters heavily out weigh the haters, look at the support on a Friday afternoon, people there on there lunch break or taking a half day off, young kids missing school and actually watching the game. I talked to Joe Stejskal at the game, Trent Klatt was there to watch. I thought it was a great weekend for Grand Rapids JG'S! Thanks mostly to Jim Morlan, if he wasn't the coach the last 10 years there might not have been a JG team.

Mr. Morlan is there to coach because he loves the game and the kids.
