We gave up on The News Star in Monroe. We used to send them scores and they would send a reporter to the bigger games/tournaments but it all stopped a few years ago. Another coach from the area sent an email to the sports editor about the lack of coverage. I don't remember what the editor said exactly but he was pretty rude about it. They cover pretty much every HS sport except soccer.

Joseph does a good job trying to cover high school soccer in Nola.

Coverage this year in BRLA seems slower than normal

Shame on the Advocate for not covering the Catholic/University game. Hard to believe.

Shame on the Advocate for not covering the Catholic/University game. Hard to believe. How about St. Amant-Dutchtown game Tuesday? A Top 10 matchup in Division I between two rivals didn't merit any coverage.

They typically only cover one game a night during regular season. You're right, if you get one opportunity to cover, what was the marquee matchup that night? It seems that a Top 10 matchup, parish rivalry and winner getting inside track to the district title would have gotten top billing.

And still not a word from The Daily Advertiser in Lafayette! Appears the Acadiana Advocate has done a nice job in covering prep sports, including soccer.

well deserved. He’s an awesome guy and I must say the photo is very flattering as well. Good luck in the playoffs coach and hopefully we can dine at the chimes before the match!!

One thing that could help with coverage is try and stay away from Friday night games. I now Friday is High School's night but it is basketball's night and they will get the lion share of the coverage. I would recommend Thursday nights or Saturdays.
