10 points for creativity, 0 points for Lech though...Pioneerprideguy wrote:I'd say Bill Lechner. Most of his kids come from a public school program and have to be re-taught the game of hockey. When he & his staff go out and evaluate which kids they are going after, they realize they are gonna have to put in a great deal of work to get these kids to play up to the private school standards. This is not easy! What we are seeing now is Lech is starting to put certain coaches in place at various public youth associations to get these kids better prepared when the Hill coaches come around and offer them a place to play. It is amazing the success Lech has had when you take a step back & look at what comes to his door each year. Please public schools, prepare your kids better!

There are a lot more small, public schools and many large ones they could learn from too. We can only hope for two state tournamnents some day (Public and Private) and let them meet and play each other...on an outdoor rink somewhere.

I wasn't aware that they played hockey up north, let alone, good hockey. I notified Lech who notified the school administration who will now send their scout team up there. We realize the talent there is still raw, but we feel like with the right coaching, we could make something of it. Thanks for the tips & keep them coming.Neutron 14 wrote:You have to be kidding us with your arrogance. This is what is wrong with private schools and their screwed up thinking.
