Friday night, Smith became the first to 40 wins, and Parrish became just one of five coaches to win 30 playoff games in MPSSAA history. Conner needs one victory to grow the ‘Club 30’ number to six. Wallich would become the 11th coach in MPSSAA history with 24 post-season wins, with a win.
The ‘30 Club’ looks to double what it was coming into the season over the next two years no matter the outcomes of this weekend’s games. With Parrish in, and Conner at the doorstep, it’s seemingly possible, especially with this playoff expansion, that Franklin’s Coach Anthony Burgos, Wallich, Douglass’ Coach JC Pinkney and River Hill’s Coach Brian Van Deusen makes it ten with 30, should all coach the next two years.
Of the twenty coaches that have won at least 18 post-season games, ten are active.

Four intriguing games to close the 2019 season:
Catoctin vs Dunbar - Catoctin's 41-0 blowout of Fort Hill can't be overlooked, nor can Dunbar's narrow 42-38 win over Lake Clifton in Playoff Week #2. Catoctin in a close one.
MIddletown vs Potomac - A virtual toss-up. Middletown's incredible comeback against Elkton could give them the edge going into this game.
Damascus vs Linganore - Two of the premiere programs in Maryland lock horns. Having Mr. Bresee on their team may be the difference maker for the Hornets.
Wise vs Northwest - If any of the games are one-sided, this should be the one.
Happy Holidays and Happy Off-Season to all!

Congrats to my guy, DaLawn, and his Pumas, on their 4th 4A state title in 5 years, and their 5th in 8 years. He always has his talented units so prepared. Very proud of him. The Pumas produced close to 500 yards of offense, and held the Jaguars scoreless in the second half.
