Throwing a regular kitty cat in a Lions den would be an obstacle for him. A "no win" deadly one if a miracle wouldn't happen.
Bout the same thing year in year out with public schools playing De Sales. Yes, been some close calls and very few wins by public schools unless your a big Div 1, even then De Sales has been known to hang or beat them as well in regular season.
Quit being a victim.
Katie Smith raised in Logan, played in the SEOAL, went on to college, WNBA, Olympics. Overcame obstacles associated with what was/is "Appalachia Ohio".
It is 16-18 year olds in public schools playing against 16-18 year olds in private schools. It is not like public schools play against 24 year olds from private schools.
Are you seriously telling me a graduate from Ohio University can't compete with a graduate from Harvard; if he/she from OU is willing to do what it takes to land that job?
Might want to get used to competing against kids with more "advantage"...because that is what is going to happen when you leave the bubble of mom and dad.
Just my opinion, could be wrong. I often am.
