Shameless Vanity. Vote in USA Today contest for my nephew
5/29/20`5 | me

Posted on 05/29/2015 9:16:46 AM PDT by Fizzie

St. Margaret's Tartans are in the USA Today final round for best HS boys lacrosse team in the country! St. Margaret's won the Southern California title recently, which is as high as HS teams can progress. (There is no state or national championship.)

Thanks to friends like you voting in the 1st two rounds, St. Margaret's finished #3 in the country in Round 2 voting, and 1st in bracket. (Bracket and popular vote weren't necessarily in synch, depending on bracket) . In the final vote, it's all popular vote, which is serious business. (Dopey way of determining the best boy's lacrosse team, but I didn't write the rules.) I am just rooting for St. Margaret's, and hoping you will too.

Now, it's down to 10 teams for the next 8 days, beginning on Friday, 6/29 noon EDT, 11AM CDT, 10AM MDT, and 9AM PDT. Multiple voting is allowed, and ENCOURAGED. http://contest.usatodayhss.com/

Please pass this on to your friends, and even acquaintances. Every vote helps, as St. Margaret's has some formidable competition who are very organized in racking up the votes.

St. Margaret's is not daunted by massive competition. They demonstrated that in their "against all odds" games this year.

"I Am Not A Robot" bot-catcher on the voting site is a pain, but quickly you will be able to identify pizzas and ice cream . Pass the time while sitting on "hold" with tour favorite utility company.

Thank you, Freepers. We do what we need to do when we need to do it. Sometimes, things are not as important as saving our country. But we know what we can do,

Thank you, and St. Margaret's Lacrosse team thanks you too!

Thanks to all of you!
This is going for 7 days, so it’s a marathon, and vote more than once if you can. Important to verify your vote with the I am Not a Robot checkoff, and then pick out the items they want you to pick out.
Keep it going, Freepers!

St. Margaret’s came in #3 in the country for the USA Today Boys Lacrosse contest.
The top two teams surpassed everyone by over 80,000 votes, which makes you wonder about the voting integrity.(Computer intervention??)
But am very proud St. Margaret’s placed 3rd fair and square.
Thank you Freepers!
