Phillippi: 2 goals allowed on 80 shots. That should get him into the Top 10 all-time save percentage at the state tourney. Congratulations Hill! Flip was pretty unconscious in that final.

combine that with last years save percentage, and he might have climbed into the 80s!

hey Poor Imitation, nice jab at the kid...last time I checked he was a STATE CHAMPION and an MVP who stoned the #1 and #2 teams in the state to win it all in front of 18K plus both nights....

I'm pretty sure that adds up to more than you've ever done...

The blog writer is as hateful as the people he is trying to describe (and not well).

Should STA or any private school be compelled to play AA?
It is a question that has merit for no other reason than school size.
How do these schools determine their size?
How do they attract certain individuals that are gifted atheletes, etc....?
How many special ed kids do these schools have to worry about, or D level, C level students?
Private schools are different than public schools. Do they need to be scrutinized to a greater extent becasue of that? Probably.
Should they be denied the right to participate inpublicly funded leagues?

No, in my opinion, but we know others have a different opinion.

Should they play at the highest level?
Well, that gets more complicated in my mind, and I am not sure I have formed an opinion? The blog wirter has and he is trying to use 'hate', recruiting, and other methods to convince people that public schools are as bad as privates in these areas. Why doesn't he try a positive spin?
Perhaps, he attended a public school?


Anyway, Phillippi did indeed play very well and is deserving of the recognition.


And, by the way, I 'hate' STA, but did meet some very nice STA people.

His pads were oversized. He is the second coming of J.S. Giguere.

I would be willing to bet money, that yumusakler, lee, and caschetta all had bigger pads than phillippi and he beat all three.

and I would be willing to bet (a large amount of money) that if Phillippi played for LS, and Roseau in their games, and Yumu and Lee played for HM in the game...the scores would have been alot worse

settle down little one...Yeah! congrats to HM, its already been said and done..go private schools! I just stated a fact, and you get all upset...and as far as "stoning" the #1 and #2 teams in state? the credit should go to the team defense played in front of him..Yes, Phillip played well, but his defense was awesome...rarely many good scoring chances, and almost NO rebound chances...

again, Congrats to HM!!! We are so happy for private schools!

Small schools are not even questioned or monitored, which is the entire point. I repeat: you cannot single out some while excluding others and consider that objective. You go all the way down the line, or none at all. The bias is it's lumped into a private school investigation.

My piece is to a certain extent a subjective piece, so the reader should take from it what they will. However, to deny that level of hate, all one has to do is look to Hill's win over Roseau. To them Hill didn't win in the first place. To describe the tone as anything but hate is the grossest sort of exaggeration. And time really doesn't matter. No-one has yet to explain that while we now live in a non-transfer era, there still seems to be a heck of a lot of hate brewing for privates? You provide all kinds of scrutiny--that's good to question things. But isn't it kind of mute in a non-transfer era? (Please don't ban me administrator. )

Hill-Murray>Lakeville South.

That is all. You're dismissed.
