I wonder why people are upset about the Needham situation. It's high school soccer. A sectional or state championship is not going to determine whether someone gets into Harvard. It may be great to have a jacket with "state champs" on the back but in the scheme of things it really doesn't matter. People who are complaining should look at it in a way that someone thinks enough of the school system to place their child there. There may be a short term inconvenience but the long term benefit may be worth it for the child. Take it as a source of pride that kids want to attend the school system and not leave it.

There is a lot more to this. Is the coach recruiting and is it fair to able to play on a team in another town that is better than your own town. A lot of kids would love the chance to play on a good team but they play where they live and make the best of it. Sorry I see it as cheating one or another on everyones part

Why is it that Needham seems to be always embroiled in these soccer dramas? Is it THE soccer town in MA or is there more to the story?

Needham vs Weymouth 1-1 and look at Needham high school's other team they are all doing well. Must be something in the water or maybe just living close by helps too

What are the current Baystaet standings? Looks to be pretty competitive this year. Should be an interesting October.
