With Irmo having more youth, I agree that their time will come very soon. And yes, #7 Dunbaker, is a Sophmore.



He's a very talented kid then, I saw him juke a few people out. I'll try to remember to look at him next season, he certainly seems to be going places.

I also saw #8 for Irmo, B. Padula (SR.) comfort his teammate after the Northwestern goal and that was something you rarely see. Usually you see teammates getting mad with each other or yelling, but this guy does something totally different. He makes sure that his teammate is calm and doesn't beat himself up over it. That was one of the classiest things I have seen a player do in a long time.



He's a senior? I was afraid he might be, I remembered him playing in the last years game, and he's a tall kid, so I figured he would be an upperclassmen...it's a pity he won't be around next year, because he's got a very focused, grounded style of defense that is fun to watch.

IIRC, the kid (#19?) didn't start and was sent on that half...being in that position is awful, you can't help but feel the coach has messed up by sending you in, and it's impossible not to blame yourself--I'm willing to admit I've been there before ! It was good to see an older teammate extend a hand and help him...it was even better to see the kid score later and redeem himself.

And yes it was classy...if only our fans had matched most of our players decorum.
