Summer School Ends

Tonight is the last local summer meeting before the association qualifying meeting this Sat. Last chance to ask questions and remove any doubt. Doubtful that will work.

The differences between High School ball and College are quite stark. It's still football, but in college there are so many exceptions to the rules. Some penalties are previous spot, some are spot fouls. Penalty enforcements are like 'all-but-one', but then again, not really. It reminds me of grammar class - why bother having a rule when there are so many exceptions.

It really isn't that bad, but it feels that way at the beginning. The study group has really helped stop the temptation to compare HS with College. You just have to let go of HS rules and look at the version of the game independently.
