I think you're mad. You commented early on in another thread about the days before the magic began clicking when QND roughed up and beat up the fledgling Rockets. Bragging about kids getting injured. All you've done since 2009 is average a 6-4 record.
I don't insult the kids. I insult your POS town and its inability to attract quality families to your program. You are the antithesis to all of the arguments about football/basketball recruiting in private school high school sports. People WANT to go to Mount Carmel. People WANT to go to St. Rita. People WANT to go to St. Laurence. People WANT to go to SHG. Hell, people WANT to go to ESL. Meanwhile, in 30 years, you've gone from a 2A to a 3A to a long tenure in 4A, back to a 2A program. Families have a choice to send their kids to you and they AREN'T. That's a culture issue. And much of it has to do with the fact Quincy resembles a Sasquatch sized turd on the river. Families are literally choosing to go to your neighboring school with it's embarrassing 12.8% college readiness rate rather than pay anywhere from $2300 to $4100 per year (after assistance) to send their kids to a supposed "better" school. QHS Reading ACT scores average 19.6 while QND averages 21.5. Two points better and barely a point better than the state average?!?! And before you opine, I looked up my Jesuit institution's average... 28. As a product of a Jesuit education, you embarrass the rest of us who find value in educational and athletic achievements as a cornerstone for future success. And to hear your constant "woe is me, we're smaller than everyone else, we're trying" nonsense is painful as it screams beta energy.
And no, Lincoln and U-High don't get this kind of joy. U-High was amazing last night and wasn't trying to injure their opponent as you so bragged about in your "days of glory" 20 years ago. Minus the one alcoholic parent who paid a visit to the Rochester bleachers in Lincoln, the Railers have been light years more reasonable and understand basketball is where they will be strong in the CS8.
So, your braggodocio comments of a time long ago have been heard and you're still on the hook to explain your woeful existence. I hope your squad makes it to the playoffs. A group of us will be on the Maroa Forsyth side laughing as we watch your tearful playoff exit while you bitch about the refs. And I hope the Gods will make it happen for Maroa to destroy your ego on your home turf. Which brings to mind another item.... how is it you were so dominant within the confines of that shithole we call Quincy, but squeaked by in your only trip outside of the county? Normal put up 30. Rochester put up 38. SHG put up 50+. Chatham put up 37.
Go back into your limestone mine along the river and focus on guarding the horse glue.
