Comments about ‘3A high school football: Juan Diego grinds out semifinal win’

Good season for the wasps...hope Andersons injury isnt too bad. Hes a good ball player.

Why is it fair for a private school that can recruit gets to play a team like Wasatch that does not have the same options. Let all the private schools play each other.

You can atleast claim 2nd or 3rd in the public schools division of 3A.

way to go Juan Diego, region 11 rocks!!!

too bad about anderson.
juan diego will have no trouble recruiting someone 6-4 200 pounds that runs a 4.2 40 before next weeks championship game though.maybe some one from florida, california, hawaii, africa?

Keegan Anderson broke his leg and is our for championship game.

Wasatch fan, did you complain about private schools a month ago when you beat up on Judge? Didn't think so. If they would have made a few plays they could have beat JD and then what would be said?

That was a great game! I love high school football playoffs.

JD played a great game and so did Wasatch. The game was closer than the score showed, Wasatch was right in there till the 4th quarter. Hats off to both teams. Best of luck to JD next week!

Bush comment... just bush. I am a Wasatch fan... it is too bad about Anderson!

Great Season Wasatch. A fine performance for a public school!

I am sure they did complain. Why? Becasue the point is the same whether they recruited well this year or had an off year. The real point is... should they be complaining at all, it is what it is. The nature of private schools... if you build a good program, you can beat them. Look what JD did in 2A, only two championships and one if not both of those were when they had 3A enrollment but awaiting re-classification. Fact is, if Wasatch tackled better and made one more first down the last possession of the 3rd quarter, this game could have come down to the wire!

Let's go Park City... represent region 10 well!!!

To why and fan...that's ironic - "Y Fan". Sounds to me like you are a couple of sore losers. Wasatch has plenty of talent and has played well this season. Juan Diego simply shut-down the two big playmakers - the Davis kids. Nice win Juan Diego. I'm looking forward to a great game next week vs. Park City or Hurricane.

The private school whining is typical. Ask Cottonwood about their baseball team and how many of the kids (10) out of 11 are from other areas. It is called open enrollment. Kids at Private Catholic schools matriculate from - private catholic schools. Where they get a Catholic Education and pay it.

its really sad to hear about keegan. he is such a good player and a huge asset to the team. im hoping that JD can still pull out that state championship game! GO JD Soaring Eagle!

Not all athletes are Catholic. They get a free education. I know of 10 athletes in the last 5 years that went to Judge that were LDS. Don't write what you do not know.

Stop complaining about the private school thing Wasatch folks, please. Juan Diego was clearly the better team and manhandled us on the line. And to be honest, after watching the Park City debacle a few weeks ago, what could we hope to do against the winner of the two PUBLIC schools tomorrow anyway?

Be happy, give congrats to the opponent, thank the coaches and players, and move on. It was a great season and one we should be proud of. Being a semifinal team is a great accomplishment.

At least be honest and tell it like it is. I agree, there is no place for the whining. However, it is all schools=open enrollment, private schools=open enrollment+tuition assistance. Again, it is what it is and tuition assistance is probably not a huge factor but it does make a difference.

Oh yeah, that is horrible news about the Anderson kid, wow. Hard on a sentimental note for the player and tactically for the team. I think Juan Diego's good enough up front to run against 9 man fronts anyway, but this is a tough loss.

Both teams played well and it was terrific being at the stadium and watching high school football. What JD has and other teams lack is team speed. Not only are JD's skill postion players fast, their line men are fast, with great feet, on both sides of the ball. A very good team like Wasatch can hold up to the speed for a couple of qts however, after awhile it will ware you out. Wasatch, once your linemen come up to speed, you will win a state title.
