There will be a Division I team and a Division II team. The Division I team is
the top team. The coaching staff will continue to evaluate our athletes on a
weekly basis to determine if they should be on the DI or DII team. There
may be an opportunity to move an athlete up or down based on an
individuals needs, grades and improvement level.
We give our athletes opportunity to try out at the position they want.
Coaches then determine if that position is best for the athlete and the team.
If the staff feels that the move could help the team at another position then
the athlete will be moved accordingly.
According to the LISD Athletic Handbook each athlete will play in every
game. However playing time will be determined in practice, games
and to the coaches discretion. It is preferred that the athlete contact the
coaching staff in regards to needed improvement or more playing time.
If an athlete gets sick or hurt the coaching staff ask
that you send a note or email about his condition. A
doctor’s note is required if the athlete is to miss for
an extended period of time.
An athlete that fails a class at the end of each six
weeks grading period will become ineligible to play
