He will turn 19 before the school year starts. I was under impression that would make one ineligible but HEAT posted below that is not the case.

i thought that was the rule too

Covid changed some things.

Covid changed some things.

COVID didn’t change anything . Rule is if your 19 on June 15 or later you are eligible. . That’s all sports . Basketball starts in November

Inderkum Returns ALOT. From seeing alot of the Teams. MC/Inderkum will be 1 and 2 again. And as I see people talking.. Yes, Sheldon will always be in the Mix. ALWAYS.

I think every team should play within the enrollment period. Didn’t say Riordan should play D5. But how can two teams play D4, one is penalized and moves to D2 and the other is rewarded and moves to D5 and that team didn’t even make the finals. This doesn’t make any bit of sense. Play your division. If you want a open or D1 as it was back in the day, petition up. But the movement in all of this is hilarious to me and explains why one dude in the junior and senior class combined nationally ranked was in the building. Sure many have gone the prep school route. But many pros and not time college players stay. Riordan back in the day knocked out two future NBA players in D3. Bring that back. To watch a a few teams with 10 or more losses in a state title game is pretty weak in my book. And to have a team like St Joes who is 0-11 in league to even be in the conversation, come on. I love the Pilots, but why are they even in the sectionals.

I agree that schools should play in their enrollment division and if they have the track record and want to play up, they can petition the NCS to move up.

So what is your point . And if your a coach you would know this doesn’t matter

I think the ‘point’ he may have been making is that kids who turn ‘19’ in the summer are generally preparing for their sophomore year of college, not their senior year of high school.

No Harm No Foul

I’m assuming most of us know examples of kids starting school a bit later, or being held back early on (for a myriad of reasons), which made them a bit older than their classmates as they progressed through their education. But to turn 19 before one’s senior year even begins, seems a bit Cray-Cray (IMHO).

On the brightside, he was eligible to drive Carpool before his Frosh year began. 🚗

I will tell this story again, it's been awhile. I went to what's considered the toughest problem school in the country. John Marshall Junior High.
The book " Under Cover Teacher " was written about the school.
We went 7th- 8th- and 9th grade. There was a kid In my class left back three years, and he was going on 18 years old. I kid you not.
The Principle took some newspaper clippings, climbed to the roof and committed suicide.
Any story I hear about kids being to old, I think back to my school.

Here's wishing you great hoops

Back to the original topic of this thread... Just from the large numbers of really good players that many of the top teams have returning (hopefully), NorCal should be really strong next year.
