Thoughts on the game?

In the playoffs anything can happen, I believe the Vikings need to come out and play like they have nothing to lose because really they don't

Last game of season for Symmes.

Where is malvern?

osu,

26: Welcome to MALVERN, OH.

4 hours? Seems weird to have a district that big. Won't be able to go that far but Good Luck to the Vikings!

osu,

I thought the same thing. I am not sure how they assign the regions though.

Green, Notre Dame, and East are in another region.

And I just noticed that Portsmouth ND and Sciotoville are in a different region then SV. Here is a link with a map of the state for each Division. Each shows how the four regions in each division are sectioned off. http://www.ohsaa.org/sports/ft/boys/2009/RegMaps.pdf

Good luck to the Vikings from the Tartans of Sciotoville!

LETS GO BLUE!

Just some doggone bad luck for the Vikings. I thought they could beat GCC or Rosecrans, but this is the worst team they could play from this region.
Hopefully they pull off the shocker, but it would be just that - a shocker.

Go Symmes Valley!

Malvern IMO

This game will be over at halftime!!! Malvern in a big way.

Symmes Valley is the most southern team in region 23 with South Gallia being second.

Good luck Vikings, bring the victory back to southern Ohio!

GO VIKINGS!

Congratulations Vikings!! 22 other teams in our region will be at home Saturday night. You should be proud of yourselves. We'll be there to cheer you on Saturday night. Do your best and at the end of the game we will all be proud to be Vikings.

Go Vikings

Everyone out in the Valley needs all the support they can get this week. I am sure that ALL involved will be putting in the time and effort that is needed to put themselves in the best possible position to bring home a victory for the school.
Stay focused, work hard, pay attention to detail and NEVER GIVE up. I seriously think that if SV get's by this first round game, they have have a very good shot at winning the region.

SV000000, nice post! I know everyone worked very hard this season to be in the postion they are in. Now, everyone needs to get behind them.

Good Luck to Symmes Valley, I hope you pull it off!!!
I don't know anything about the two teams, but Symmes Valley is a SOC team, and I hope the win.

Everybody from Minford, will be pulling for you!!!!!


Proud to be a Falcon!!! The SOC II Champs!!!

This should be us instead of Symmes Valley, but I am rooting for you anyway. Hopefully you can win one for this part of the state.

Malvern wins easy.

How much do you know about Malvern Paladin? What type of offense do they run? What is their base defense?

Best of luck to Rusty and SV . MD

Let's go Symmes Valley...Oak Hill will be cheering on the SOC!!

I love the SOC 1 and SOC 2 conference and the support they show for each other when it comes to playoff time. They'll fight each other to the end when the season and game is on, but get behind everyone when the playoffs come. That is just the way it should be too.
Good luck to the Oaks as well.

Good Luck Symmes Valley

Congrats to the symmes valley players, coaches, and everyone involved!! The community is behind you 100%...just go out there leave it all on the field guys and hold nothing back!! I agree with riverball....I am very impressed with the class that the oaks are showing towards symmes valley...i too would like to wish them the best of luck...im hoping to make it to the game on friday night.

LETS GO YOU MIGHTY VIKINGS, WRECK MALVERN.

Hasn't Paladin been wrong before on Symmes Valley in the plays?

YES

How do the two teams match up up front? I know that Malvern runs a form of the spread but what defense do they run.

Lets go Vikings you are a great bunch of kids from the freshman up to the seniors I have had the pleasure to watch these young men from the time my oldest was in the 3rd grade. I do not recall missing a game you have played. If there was ever a closer group of Vikings I do not remember them. Kyle run them over, boomer sack them many times, Billy,Cory,Jordan and Nick don't stop driving, Drew and Hunter shut down the ends, Justin,Tyler,Evan,Jacob hit the holes hard, Cody lead,guide and direct this team you can go far. And last but not least Garrett and Grant listen to your mother! Seniors I am not ready for B-DUBS yet, lets win a few more!!!!!

Im going to Pick the Vikings in a slobberknocker....

Symmes Valley 14
Malvern 13

They could use a little help from the "Waterloo Wonders" in this one and since they won't have that help: Malvern 28 Symmes Valley 14.

Good luck to the Vikings...play hard and represent your community

I use to go watch Malvern a lot on Saturday afternoon before they had lights at their stadium.

I have also watched them play at Newcomerstown a time or two.

Though it's been a while since I have been there I still try and follow their league and even made a trip to watch Strasburg this season.

My friend said this is one of the better teams Malvern has had maybe better than they were last season.

I think they win big.
