Nokona Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Conant Cougars beat Elk Grove for the MSL Championship by 1 in OT. I wanna say that the final was 69-68 but i'm not sure. The Cougars are getting hot again. 3 out of 4 with that one loss being to St. Joes by 2 in a game they probably gave away. Watch out.

Nokona Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 hahaha. I just realized that. Anyway, the Conant baseball team will probably be .500. I quit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoArow33 Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Hey just gotta give a shout out for Immaculate Conception in Elmhurst, IL. I'm gonna be starting at catcher pitcher and centerfield this season as a junior. I just transferred here so I hope all goes well. I've put on alot of muscle since last season so I've hit the ball pretty hard. Look for us in the papers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait for Summer and Fall League though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted March 2, 2005 Author Share Posted March 2, 2005 Speaking of coaches, our varsity coach sucks. He makes us do a whole bunch of s*** we don't have to and that have nothing to do with baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartattack19 Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 Guys, I know all the stupid conditioning does not seem like it has a place in baseball, but it does help. I would love to be in that shape again, you could play a doubleheader then play floor hockey and not be tired at all! now, if i run to first i am DONE. I hated it at the time, why are we doing all of these bleacher climbs, wall sits, and basketball agility drills. I think if my team took it all seriously, we would have won more than 16 games in my four years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past ten years, my school had a .750 winning percentage combined in those years, but last year we were just barely above .500. It was mainly because nobody did anything in the offseason like lifting weights or conditioning, and it came back to bite us in the ass. The coaches learned their lesson and are beating us to death so far this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was playing catch with my best friend, overthrew him and his lung collapsed and he had to go to the hospital! Do all the work, it will pay off eventually.

SoxFan1 Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 I agree with Heartattack....conditiong pays off. And when you don;t condition, you only cheat yourself. Sonce baseball condition/practices have started, I have lost 9, almost 10, pounds and am in the best shape ever. I am ALMOST rock solid. I love seeing myself this way and it truly hepls. I am more energetic, stronger, more endurant, and I feel better overall. It really feels good. Not to mention that my curveball is awesome!

I never used to drink lots of water while playin, but last summer I caught for two teams and I learned the hard way to drink plenty of water. After every game until I brought a gallon of water with me, I would get a terrible headache after the game. Now I always have plenty of liquids with me.

SoxFan1 Posted March 11, 2005 Author Share Posted March 11, 2005 So when id everyone's 1st game. We might have some scheduled for the end of March as exhibition games but the 1st official regular season games are in April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxin' Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Our opening day is the White Sox opening day. So that kind of sucks. Tryouts start Monday, and I tweaked my rotator cuff again last night, so that is no good. Also, our coach told us not to talk about our team on the internet, and that most people on online message boards are failures and we shouldn't be on them anyways.

I don't play, but I want to say we've probably been conf champes 9 times in that span. Never produced a minor leaguer, even, or any higher than 3rd at state.

He_Gawn Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Got told yesterday that I am the number 1 starter on Varsity as of right now until our big 2 get ready. That makes me 3rd in the rotation on varsity as a sophomore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
