KHS has trouble with depth they started with a strong line up and they have one or two guys off of the bench and then alot of guys that are essentially the same. They only have 3 sophmores on the team and only one of them is strong enough to play with the first team.
The Coach is trying to win games, get playing time for all of his upper class man and set a line up for the end of the year run. If they stay/get healthy - there is a starting 10 that can play with anyone - and with their keep this team could go farther than expected.
The challenge is going to be keeping this short bench team healthy - both physically and mentally. Everyone is going to have a role... and the coach is playing with the lineups, trying to figure it out... his tinkering has the potential of hurting some guys on the pitch and on the bench and squandering the chemistry.... most years khs teams have been strong enough to overcome the uncertainty... this year will be more of a challenge. They need to stick with a line up soon and let the boys gel. They need all of the big, strong and experienced boys on the pitch at the same time in the right positions and hope they stay healthy and keep their cool to make a good run this year

I completely agree with Khs's starting eleven being capable of playing with anyone. However from what i have seen they at many times in a game they are not all on the same page. If it is because the coach is "tinkering" with line up, who knows? but the team definitely does not have any depth outside their starting 11, after number 7 (dont know name) went out from game today the outsides for KHS were none existent and frankly terrible.
