Every year HS teams must re-load but to think schools like SE, Syosset , LV can replace some of those lost pieces is insane. SE lost the best HS FO in the country and Syosset a HS top 5 attackman in the country. Those 2 have proven their merit on the national stage as well as the 2017 college season. It's possible they can be successful but in the words of Coach Boone " you can't replace a Gerry Bertier , next question". Titans did win ( in the movie , in real life Bertier gets paralyzed after the Championship) but w/o guys like that you need a great coaching job and real team chemistry.


Public High School teams can't "re-load".... they can just pull from who attends the school. Larger districts like, Syosset, Smithtown & Massapequa have a little more of the ability to back-fill talented seniors who graduate due to the size of the districts. There are a lot more players that you have access to....but there is no recruiting to re-load.

Much more difficult for the smaller districts to do this given the numbers in the district
