Coach Rogers will be on The JEFF 98.7The JOCK 98.7 today at 3:25pm to talk about last night’s victory over Joplin and this weekend’s quarterfinal match against Jefferson City.
Andy Dehnart from the Reality Blurred blog has a story about three documentaries airing this week. The one that caught my eye was Kick Like A Girl.
On Thursday at 6 p.m. ET, HBO will debut Kick Like a Girl, a film produced by Jenny Mackenzie, the coach of an undefeated all-girl third-grade soccer team, the Mighty Cheetahs, that takes on teams of boys–which didn’t go over well with the boys who lost to the girls, nor to their parents. The network says the documentary “chronicles the adventures of these third-grade underdogs as they set out to prove their game skills and overcome the skepticism of opponents and parents,” and “examines the origin of gender stereotypes.”
It sounds like a good way to get ready for Saturday!

For some reason, the MSHSAA has not been updating the Class 3 state tournament bracket. With a little research, I have been able to complete the bracket.
