CN wraps up the Region 1 AAA Championship! Good job guys!!!

HHCA 7

HHP 2

Pinewood - 2 (4-1 in PK's)
PG - 1

PG scored on a PK in the 55th minute...awful call. Pinewood with many chances finally scored in the 74th when Allen flicked a long throw near post. In PK's pinewood's Spearman, Allen, Sweet, and Corella hit while PG missed twice. Pinewood wraps up Region 2 AAA Championship for the fourth year in a row.

Pinewood is loosing strength while others are gaining.......Hammond may surprize them next week, I would not be shocked. I'm pulling for the Sky Hawks to win it all now! I like their timing.

Sidenet,

Pinewood losing strength? You would have had to have been at the PG game to understand just how well their keeper played to keep them in the match.

Hammond will have to get past a big and physical Hilton Head Christian to get to a match with Pinewood.

It appears that HHP's size and strength had nothing to do with the score, 3-0 Hammond , I heard. I'm still pulling for the underdogs on Wednesday.

any predictions on tomorrow's games?

prediction: 2 winners and 2 loosers

CN over PG in OT
PP should win but Hammond might just make it a battle to the end.

With sensational coaching tactics from Adrian Pinasco and a never say die attitude from Hammond I call the upset 1-0 Hammond over PP.

good call...

Pinewood - 7
Hammond - 0

any news on the PG CN game?

Sensational "coaching tactics" are better described as "must-see theatrics". Let me explain...no there is too much, let me sum up...

Halftime 3-0 Pinewood. Pinasco goes straight to midfield and is turned around immediately by a no-nonsense center ref. Back at the bench, Pinasco melts down kicking soccer balls in every direction (one carried 50+ to the trees) then stomps off to the edge of the woods behind the bench. There he is met by a Hammond parent (a mother, dang she got there quick) that has a melt down on Pinasco then stomps off stopping by the goal on their end. Pinasco sends team to corner and plops down on bench with head hanging. Meltdown Mom apparently thinks of something else to say and starts back towards bench when she is headed off be her son (who had a good game BTW). Son physically turns Meltdown Mom around and sends her back to the goal. Team gathers in corner and Meltdown Mom pulls classic misdirection play, avoids everyone, and gets back in Pinasco's face on the bench. Referee spots ball to start second half and Meltdown Mom is still shaking finger in Pinasco's face. Linesman asks Hammond section to get someone over there to get her away from bench so game can resume. Another kid's dad (I assume) escorts her to fan side of field where she briefly continues to argue with that dad and two others before venturing into the stands to argue with more dads. Pinewood wins 7-0.

Can you really call Hammond's leader a "coach"? What a shocking display tonight in Summerville. I don't know what kind of theatrics this guy is used to getting away with in Columbia, but it was as poor a sportsmanship attitude that I have ever seen. Did anyone else get hit with his spit? He got an earful from Military Mom, no doubt!

Cardinal Newman 3-0 Porter-Gaud ... Congrats to former Brookland-Cayce soccer standouts Will Eudy, Benjie Poston, and David Faulkenberry on guiding the Cardinals to the State Finals!

I have seen first hand what an amazing coach Pinasco is. He is extremely passionate about the sport and his team. I also have seen first hand how Hammond parents can be obnoxious. I was not at the game, however it seems Pinasco was coaching and a parent was out of line. I am sure the parents irresponsible action did not help Hammond in the second half. I hate to hear that this happened for the kids sake and for coach Pinasco. They deserve better than out of control parents embarrassing them and the school. Congratulations to coach Pinasco and Hammond for a succesful season.

it seems that what was expected at the start of the season is only three more days away. Pinewood v.s Cardinal Newman, should be a very good game to watch.

The Hammond parent involved has been around soccer for a number of years and shoud fully understand that there is absolutely no justification for a parent to EVER address a coach, especially approach the sidelines, during any game. There was simply no excuse for her actions and the other Hammond parents were disgusted by her conduct. While Pinewood was obviously the better team, she caused a distraction that took a way from the coaching as well as the players in the second half. There simply is no justification in the distraction she created. This is the first time I have ever witnessed such behavior by a parent. Not to mention how embarrassing it had to be for her son. The coach was upset over some missed fundamentals by the Hammond players and as many coaches, was frustrated by those actions. Either way, Hammond can be proud of a successful season and the progress their program has made and will continue to make. Her actions were quite a damper on an otherwise successful season. The ref should have probably asked her to leave but that action may have resulted in an additional card to Adrian which would have resulted in a red card. He obviously was not going to start the second half until the parent was removed and she was no leaving on her own accord.

Just reinforces my opinion of private school parents. As a DI when I've had private school kids, they look horrified when TOLD to do something. That's why my kids go/went to public schools! That and the fact I don't have the money to send them to private schools!

Instead of "always right" tonight we can say "sometimes wrong". Adrian was upset over the questionable foul call with less than 2 minutes remaining. This was probably the only flaw in tonight's officiating. The resulting score definately turned the complexion of the game, especially when paired by the disgusting behavior of the Hammond parent. How much distraction can the players face?

Hammond's coach was a crazy guy. After a soft non-call on a high kick on which no one was injured, their coach screamed "Referee" over and over while walking 15 yards out onto the field. Despite his drama and "meltdown mom," PP dominated the game and earned an easy victory. The Championship vs. Cardinal Newman is on Saturday at 4:30 at Porter Gaud. Go PP.

I don't know who that parent was, however if I was the Hammond Administration I would politely ask that parent to find another school for her child to attend.

BDAD11,
Why would you punish a child for the actions of what sounds like an emotionally disturbed parent? Why not simply keep the parent away from the games? Come on! I feel sure Hammond's policies were violated and the "parent", NOT the child, will be corrected.

Hammond has some of the most arrogant families (parents AND kids) I've ever seen. Doesn't surprise me that a parent would do something like this. Disappointing, but not surprising.

On a happier note, congrats to the CN Boys Soccer team for making it to the State finals. Thanks to the PG fans who came up for the game, hope everyone made it home safe. Classless cheap shot by #14 on the CN goalie with 14 minutes to play in a 3-0 game, but other than that, things were OK. Good luck against Pinewood Prep Saturday afternoon.

In my opinion for the parent to have embarrassed Hammond, her child ,and herself the way she did crosses the line..I'm sure the code of conduct at Hammond would speak to parental conduct as well....If a parent would have enterred a classroom and verbally attacked a teacher in a manner in which the parent had to be restrained and forceably removed to me that results in forfeiture of the privilege of attending a school.This is no different.This is Pinasco's classroom, only much more public...Yes, this would cause harm to the child, but in my opinion the harm was done by the parent.....Basically, as a parent I can't believe anyone would get this upset at a teacher or coach would and want their child to continue on at that school.

As a former,teacher,coach and administator, I feel that the Administration has to draw the line and say the "You cannot treat one of our coaches(teachers) in this fashion.For those who feel that banning a parent from attending games and or other activities would accomplish this, I respect your opinion,but to me it calls for harsher measures...Again, I'm sorry for the child.I'm sure they are feeling total humiliation right about now.But administarive support for facilty and staff is also important in my book.

BD - you still don't punish the child for the parent's actions. Period. You punish the parent.

I haven't a clue as to what the parent's issue was with the coach...but you don't punish the child for the parent's poor judgement...

Also, the soccer field is in NO WAY the same situation as a classroom. The soccer field is for competing...the classroom is for learning. If she had acted that way in a classroom...you still don't punish the child for her behavior. You punish the parent. The child already suffers from the absolute embarrassment of their parent's behavior...can't imagine what that kid is hearing in the hallways today because of how his mother behaved...

amen taylorbabe
A real voice of reason!
.

There are obnoxious parents in public and private schools. Many of you who know Pinasco know that he is an exceptional and extremely passionate coach. He works hard to see his kids improve and to excel at the game of soccer. As with any passionate coach, he puts everything he has into each game. Yet, this parent has no right whatsoever to challenge that passion or question the coach in that fashion, during a game. She made the choice to step beyond the area of reasonable conduct, and if its her first incident she should be severely warned about any further occurrence. If anything at all happens again with her, she should be banned from games.

How did CN lose to Hammond, but beat PG 3-0? PG is much better than Hammond. Is CN really a good team, or are they just lucky? PP beat Hammond 6-0 and 7-0, as well as beating HHC 2-0 and 3-0, but Hammond also beat HHC 3-0. Soccer is a crazy game. Predictions for the Championship?

Let me take this opportunity to point out that public high schools charge admission to sporting events, unlike some (or most) private schools. I assume it helps offset the cost of officials and other expenses. If you are a private school parent, please don't cop an attitude to the ticket taker when it costs $$$ to get into a game. It's not their fault! I filled in at a JV game one time and couldn't believe the negativity.

PS Go Cardinal Newman and Coach Eudy!

Hammond could have beaten CN twice, the first gane went to PK's and Hammonds keeper was out. PP is by far the best SCISA team. PP wins Saturday 4-1 in a well controlled game. The distraction with the parent at half time of the Hammond PP game caused the score to be worse than it should have been.

i dont think the parent distraction had any effect on the score line...

No excuses...the CN-Hammond game @ Hammond was not one of CN's best efforts. With that being said, if they play as well as they did Wed. night, they could give PP a run for their money. I don't know who will win, but I bet you it's going to be a very close game.

People please do not EVER attempt to launch an attack at the class and passion of Adrian Pinasco. He is a heck of a coach and anyone's kid would be lucky to have him. Any player would benefit from his knowledge and passion for the game. He motivates his players better than any man I know. You may think some of the things he does may be out of hand but he just wants to win. Other coaches could learn a great deal about this man. He studies the game at all times and constantly looks for a way to make his team and himself better. The mom in question should be banned from any future games. What an embarassment to herself and her child. She needs to seek some counseling and understand that her behavior was totally unacceptable. It is very sad to see a parent act in that manner. Thankfully my parents would never act in that manner no matter what the circumstance. The woman should be ASHAMED of herself. As for calling out Adrian Pinasco, please keep your mouth shut.

I don't know Coach Pinasco, but if any coach loses his temper and kicks numerous balls, one 50+ yards, and stomps off toward the woods has went beyond classy and passionate. At times all coaches will argue a call to a point where they may be asked to leave a game, but to go off and create a show as explained in this thread sounds like to me the coach and female parent deserves each other. You can’t let the coach off so easy just because the parent was worse than he was, she is a parent, he is a coach and they both were wrong. Neither one showed class at this game.

wow.....i had no idea that he was such a good coach i hope one day ill have a son who can learn from pinasco and his supurb coaching. then maybe when i tell my kid to stop playing his psp and go to bed he can kick the pillow up and run around the room yelling the words unreal unreal until he gets put in his place.... i guess thats just the hammond way

Sir I honestly have to disagree with you. You seem to forget the passion of this individual. Not knowing him is where you are missing out. You do not know him as a person or a coach. So please refrain from making any judgements on him until you speak to him. As for what he did, the action came out of his passion and his want for his kids to succeed. The blame lies with the parent and not the coach on this one.

squid, your sarcasm is not lost on me and I honestly hope you are not an adult. If you are then you are just embarassing yourself. Congrats.

WW, I don't know him but I hope you are right because I have heard tremendous things about Coach Pinasco and I met him at a Bridge FA Tourn. in Summerville. I'll take your word on this one and wish him luck. As for the parent, she should not confront a coach before or after a game so during a game is extremely off limits.

i actually do think hes a great coach but there are times when he becomes too "passionate" and i was reffering to those times in my previous post. i wish hammond and coach pinasco all the luck in the world next season

Pinasco is a former Boca Jr.'s player (at age 17), Got that, BOCA JR's! YES HE IS A PASSIONATE Coach, I'm sure he was a passionate player.He seems to always mean well which is more than I can say for some coaches.I would not care if he kicked a tree or a water cooler 50 yards in frustration on occasion. Maybe he needs to conform to a relaxed and less passionate style of coaching to appease the fans and a few of the parents....I think not! I , as a parent, would be more than happy to have his coaching experience with my child.I think we should keep an eye on his players, they are bound to excel.

thank you sidenet, you are the kind of people I like. You understand that a coach should not just sit there and make no comment on the game, unlike some coaches in SC... However, that is not the point. The point is I would rather have a coach that got too passionate at times, than not passionate enough. He is a heck of a motivational character and gets the best out of his players.

Pinasco is a good coach, maybe a little over the edge at times, but a good coach. However, is throwing temper tantrums after player mistakes really good for the players? I mean what is that teaching them? Does that somehow help the player in some way?

I think so. He is a hell of a motivator and will do anything to help his team. This outburst just shows how much he really cares for the game and his team. So please leave it alone.

Welshwizard,

You would say any thing to support that coach. Were you at the game to see the coach’s behavior on the side line? The coach needs to keep his emotion in check, he is representing the school, and he is the leader of that group of boys. His actions were not acceptable by any standard. Kicking and screaming, he should have been in the movies as the lead actor.

This is not the first time Adrian has demonstrated emotional behaviour. He's very passionate about the game and uses his love for the sport to motivate his players. However when he has done it and Hammond has come back to win games in which they seemed out of no one had any problems with it. It is absolutely ridiculous that a parent came onto the field. At least he is a coach and he belongs on the field. Whatever woman was on the field need's to stay as far away from a soccer field as possible and let coaches do what they know best. For Adrian, thats motivating his players and trying his best to make them successful.

Ol' Uncle Dain is astonished that some will get on this public forum and defend a coach for throwing a temper tantrum.

Inconceivable...

I guess a person with road rage is just really passionate about driving..

Gotta agree with the common sense of these last 2 posters...when a coach screams and throws or kicks things, he is called, "amazing and passionate",(and he is getting paid to teach and encourage, not berate and throw things, by the way), but when a parent loses it, she becomes "Meltdown Mom", "irresponsible and obnoxious". Why the "DOUBLE STANDARD"??

Good call Rosicky. We shouldnt just be looking at the mom here. Pinasco had a "meltdown" to. Ive seen him have several other meltdowns as well, including one that got him a red in the first ten minutes of a game over a handball at midfield. Im not saying hes a bad coach, he just chooses to go way to far sometimes and that can effect the kids in the wrong way.
