Great School for kids in Meigs County.
5 9/19/2011
Eastern has a new coach this year. So far he's nt a very good one. They only won one game and just bearly. He doesn't let most of the kids play only certain ones and they keep playing. They need a JV team so the rest of the players can play. But he doesn't want that, they would show up the varsity team and really show how much of an coach he isn't. It sad that the second string can do a better job and have shown it but he still will not let them play. Pay to play! What a joke.
