Clinton is not seeded in b2 because of their record, rather by the size of school population. ND is in B1 because all Parochial schools are moved up 1 Division. That's been the practice for years. Think about where the team from ND is made up from. Hmmm get the point, and one more thing, do your homework before you sound off again. Have a nice day.
If you win the section as a Parochail school you automatically move up to the next class the following seasons. And I believe it is a rule that Parochail schools are put in the top half. That is what happens when schools get to recruit.
Clinton should be playing a much more challenging tourney schedule. From what I observed in the TVL this year, Clinton should be the team to beat in the next few years based on talent. I thing ND needs to be more aggressive on recruiting but they do have great coaching. Good luck to all in Section play.
Then to resolve the ND problem let's put them in Class D so they can play in the Intramural Basketball League, where any 5 to 8 kids in school who go out are instant starters, put Clinton and Holland P. in the CSC so Clinton can win it every year and Holland P. can compete for a few wins. There that resolves the problems.
Why is Clinton in this Class. All TVL schools are in B1 or A. Didn't they win their division in the TVL. We in Ilion and Herkimer don't have a chance against these bigger leagues. Something has to be done.
Wow, why all the discussion on Clinton and ND. ND is on the B1-class blog for those ND followers whining because they aren't in Class D. I'm for Mt. Markham, hope they have good luck in the Class Tournament.
and clinton doesnt even get to make cuts at there tryouts just because they have a lot of talent on there team because they work hard is why they are so good
I think ND deserves to be in B2. They are a fair team this year, not a great team like some seasons in the past. If they were in this Class they would probably be a 3 maybe 4 seed. Clinton is by far the most talented but evey game is one and done from here so any let down and you're gonnnnee. Clinton doesn't work any harder than anyone else. They just have players who play all year long.
ND is a better team than Clinton. They beat them at Clinton and blew the game at home by a few points. Clinton plays lower class non conf schools but ND always plays higher class teams.
ND better than Clinton, are you kidding me. I thought ND and Clinton were in the same league so I don't know how ND is always playing better teams. Hmmm, sounds like another ND whiner. ND won't beat Clinton for at least another 2 years. Look at the rosters and you'll get the picture. You had better start recruiting better or you will get that class D slot you want so bad.
I think ND has a good point. Clinton played games against Class A (10 games) Class B1(5 games) Class B2(3 games) Class C1 Class C2 (2 games Wat'vle twice) Class D (1 NY Mill #1 or 2 in state at the time) pretty weak schedule for a Class B2 school. I for one will be sure to be at the ND / Clinton games next year watching Clinton mop up the floor with the ND wannabees, unless ND gets out and recruites better players. Go Mt. Markham... let everyone else complain about seeds and we'll take the section.
Yes same league but check out the diff in the other 6 non conf games each team played. ND played AA and A teams only where clinton played in Waterville tourney all C teams and oh yeah played a D team(lol). Please give me a break. They were lucky to win the rematch with ND.
It's really sad to see that people feel compelled to make negative comments about any of the teams or players on blogs like this. It's time we as a regional community of "intelligent and caring" people realize that it takes two teams to play a game, that there is talent everywhere, that everyone cares about their child, brother, sister, etc. who play. Rather than tear down opponents, celebrate the talents and skills of everyone who contributes to providing our communities with great entertainment. We should be able to enjoy watching skill no matter what team prevails.
Why is ND playing AA schools in tournaments. They can't win against B2 Schools. Like I said, they need to search out better players. Good Luck in the sections just the same. I'm always rooting for the local teams no matter who they are. Goooo Mt. Mark.........
Ok, let's just watch and see what happens next year when ND and Clinton get together. I follow my team in the CSC but am always checking in on other leagues. I know most of the kids playing because of off season ball. Believe me, ND doesn't belong on the same floor with Clinton in the next few years. Watch and learn. Good Luck all......
Clinton is a more skilled team than notre Dame will ever be. Wine all you like, but in the long run Clinton will be the one to take home the Sectionals title and all the notre Dame winers can cry and complain all they like but Clinton will always come out on top no matter what team they play. Watch in the next few years notre Dame.....Clinton has got some amazing players who aren't even juniors yet watch out for them in the next few years.
Congrats to Clinton for winning the Section B2 title. I think the Section 3 (B-class) will be even stronger in the next few years based on what I've seen from the teams playing this year. There is a lot of quality younger players coming up on these teams locally. Should be fun to watch. My prediction for the CSC Division II is 1. Canastota 2. Mt. Mark. 3. Sherburne; In the TVL 1. Clinton, 2. Whitesboro 3. New Hartford I like the ND team but not much there for talent coming up. They probably have the best coaching in the TVL so that should help. No offense but the CSC Division I, III, and IV are hard to take seriously. It's like anyone who goes out is an instant starter and if you can make a layup then you are destined to be an allstar. good luck to all in 2007-08 just the same.

Why is Clinton a B2......and ND is a b1....I guess when you play non conf easy games thats where you belong.
not very nice

ND by enrollment is a Class D so dont give me your BS....and they play and beat AA's in non conf as Clinton plays C's and D's.
If you win the section as a Parochail school you automatically move up to the next class the following seasons. And I believe it is a rule that Parochail schools are put in the top half. That is what happens when schools get to recruit.
ND not a class D by enrollment. but a C, based on enrollment only, they would have been a c1
But they have won the section as a class C so they must move up by rule.
Clinton should be playing a much more challenging tourney schedule. From what I observed in the TVL this year, Clinton should be the team to beat in the next few years based on talent. I thing ND needs to be more aggressive on recruiting but they do have great coaching. Good luck to all in Section play.
ND doesn't recruit
of course not
Enrollment they are class d.....fact
Some sour grapes I think
Then to resolve the ND problem let's put them in Class D so they can play in the Intramural Basketball League, where any 5 to 8 kids in school who go out are instant starters, put Clinton and Holland P. in the CSC so Clinton can win it every year and Holland P. can compete for a few wins. There that resolves the problems.
Enrollment- Notre Dame 287 grade 10-12. tops for class D is 200. period. period.

I think Canastota has an excellent shot of taking B2. The only way they get beat is if someone outruns them because speed is something they lack.
Wow, why all the discussion on Clinton and ND. ND is on the B1-class blog for those ND followers whining because they aren't in Class D. I'm for Mt. Markham, hope they have good luck in the Class Tournament.
ND is class D, check what class the cross country team was, based on enrollment.
it's not ND followers that are whinning
or whether you are b1 or b2 is based on your class size and clinton is a smaller school than ND ever think of that?
clinton beat whitesboro and new hartford which are both a lot bigger than them
and clinton doesnt even get to make cuts at there tryouts just because they have a lot of talent on there team because they work hard is why they are so good

haha o yaa
i support all teams around here but don't say clinton stinks when they beat you and expect respect. But good luck to all the teams left.
