Letter To The Editor
First , I would like to say that as the son of a member of the 82nd Airborne (Vietnam) and the father of a Marine who served three tours in Iraq, thank you for your service. I would like to address your recent article titled Evolution of LCC-1 High School Soccer. You repeatedly state that there are sufficient student-athletes to support a soccer program; however, toward the end of the article, you indicate that the program would be coed and operate on a junior varsity schedule. This suggests that there may not be enough students within the district to field either a boys' or girls' team independently.
