With the base school being Lincolnton High School it is doubtful that Post 100 would get any Burns players since it's not likely that kids who live in the Burns district are closer to Lincolnton than Shelby. Of course Lincolnton High School is further away from KM and Bessemer City than Cherryville so they probably won't be getting any of those kids.
It's not really surprising to me that Lincoln County is not having a team. They didn't have one last season and Lincoln County has struggled in recent years to get enough players to have a team and keep enough to finish out the season. There is no doubt that they could put a good product on the field. Lots of talent out of East Lincoln and North Lincoln year in and year out. However, the best players for NL and EL usually have little interest in playing legion ball. As someone said, the challenge is for Post 100 to convince players from North Lincoln and Maiden to player legion ball.
Most of the players who attend East Lincoln will probably live closer to one of the Gaston County base schools than Lincolnton High so I don't see them losing many players to Post 100. Of course Post 100 could get a player or two from EL or Lincoln Charter if their domicile is close to Lincolnton High School.
My Lincolnton, it would suit me if Post 100 would go back to being called the Link Cherries. But if they do. I assure you it won't have anything to do with my name. LOL. It would be the Linc Cherries.ee
