  1. Editorial: It's interesting that when our sports teams win a STATE playoff game or two, the whole community comes out. But when we have NATIONAL winners in an area that may lead to actual careers, the community seems kind of ho-hum about the whole thing.

    1. Simple. Sporting events such as you mention are built up too. A few months of a season, plenty of press and family talking about the team builds interest. Folks then naturally react, supporting "their" school and youth.

      This event was heard of for the first time after they won. Of course it's a great thing they won and a high five to them. But I'm sure many folks still have not heard about this nor even know about the competition. In a nutshell that's the difference. It's has nothing to do with sports but with public relations.

    2. Adding on to that, this is two children where sports teams feature many more which brings more parents and grandparents, into the conversation and hype.

      Congratulations to Elliot, Rebekah, and Zach, awesome job!
