A a a every year i get phone Calls and notes suggesting that one of the requirements for consideration for the stars and stripes All Europe football team should be a the made the All conference however listen up a the coaches did. An injustice by not voting him a fall Europe players would have to include any of the first team players we picked at our All conference a the greatest disappointment this year was not seeing. On the All conference squad. His season has been outstanding and at the minimum he performed equally As impressive As this years it Cetera. Those were some of the comments i received last year when making the selections for the 1990 All Europe selections. I know How voting for All conference can go because coaches Are Only human. If there Are players from different teams of equal ability and Only one will make the team there is the tendency of coach a to rate his athlete High and coach bus Star Low and vice versa. There also tends to be a if you vote for my Guy at this position ill vote for yours at the other position deals. I know How voting for All conference can go from another aspect. Some coaches feel that a boy should be considered for first string offence or first string defense Only because that Way More players can be Abrams that thinking is bad. The object of selecting Al conference teams is to have the Best people represented not As Many As you can. And i know How voting for All conference can go trom still another Angle. There is a belief among some athletic directors and coaches that every school should have at least one representative on the team. It is True that even the worst team can have an outstanding player but i have found during the 43 years i have been working with High school athletes that those players Are recognized by the coaches for their outstanding skills and generally receive their just rewards. However to put a players on an All conference team merely to have All schools represented is wrong for two reasons 1. It Isnit fair to the athlete to give him honors he has t earned and obviously does no to deserve. 2. It in t fair to deserving athletes who May be deprived of a once in a lifetime Opportunity to recognized As All conference All Europe or All whatever so All schools can be represented. Those Are some reasons Why All conference recognition is not a criterion for All Europe consideration. Dates have been chosen for the Germany Bennor coaches meetings to determine the 1991 All conference teams. The a Central a North and a South coaches will Convene nov. 4 at 10 . At bad Kreuz Nach Baum older and Ansbach High schools respectively. The aaa and a mentors will Convene at the Benjamin Franklin Village no club nov. 12. At 9 3ft . A a a it is Seldom indeed that a player on the losing team a team that gets thoroughly whipped can win player of the week recognition. But that is the Case this time around. Wurzburg was humbled by Wiesbaden last saturday 40-7. However nos guard Chris Decorte stood out like a sore thumb with a single handed performance a he had Ift Solo tackles including two sacks and two assists. He also blocked three Wiesbaden punts and recovered a Warrior Fumble. His achievement accents the claim above that a Good player on a poor team can make a vivid impression on an opposing coach. Offensive player of the week laurels go to Hanau s Deshawn Fogle who picked up 204 Yards in Only 12 carries and scored a touchdown in the panthers 29-0 aaa Conquest of Kaiserslautern a a a the first football playoff Champion will be determined saturday when Lakin Heath entertains Woodbridge in the .
