The outcome wasnt what most of us here were hoping for, as the Tarpons hindered by a 20.8 FG percentage were defeated by Edgewater HS in the semi-final 6A game 44-34.
I was disapointed however to see no mentioned what so ever about the game online by the Herald Tribune this morning? I noted also that their coverage of area outstanding male track atheletes showed a complete lack of genuine sports journalism, as their were a number of atheletes that were not mentioned. I know their excuse will be, that they can only report what is provided to them, but if I can know who is and who isnt in track locally over 60 miles away armed only with my laptop.....I think that pretty much exposes what really is going on here with the want and desire to cover local sports by the local fish wrappers!
Again hats off to the Tarps and their semi-final appearence in boys 6A basketball!
