Not agreeing or disagreeing. But given the fact that MD got spanked twice in one day at team state, I can see the point of MD not being on par with MD teams of the past. Yes I said spanked, and yes I saw it with my own eyes.
All you have to do is look at the individual records through the year and you begin to see the point. You want to talk about "facts", what was the last MD team to enter the SIAC with a line up with a combined record of 214 wins to 86 loses?
I know there are teams that would love to have those combined stats, but hardly a MD par year.
MD may be the best in this area, but semi state is where is look for the Coaches Trophy to start slipping from their grasp.
