For 'competitive' reasons, plus, having an established rivarly with Belpre already I think gives Warren a little edge over River Valley. Warren is NOT that great at other sports by the way. They have their moments in basketball and are usually very competitive, their football team is on parallel wit...

Hey, when you get 100 boys pulled away to go kick a little ball around (soccer) it makes having a sucessful football program very hard. Other schools don't have to worry about losing those kinds of numbers. In reality, after you take away the boys via Soccer, Golf, Cross Country, Boys Tennis - Athen...

lol ... Truly intelligent, I wish I would have thought of it myself.

Walljump ... I was refering to the 'Federal Hocking'-Eastern comparison ... Eastern does not have equal talent of the Lancers .. No way. Not many teams do though, Federal Hocking is very, very talented with Butcher, Dunfee and Cuckler. Eastern relies basically on a group of Freshmen, a couple of upp...

i8al ... Yea, I was at the Trimble/Fed Hock game last night and I was at the preview ... Trimble is solid, I like them as a team; but, compared to teams that have players like Dunfee/Butcher - the 'cats lack quickness. I think Butcher proved that last night by dumping in 32 points. Even Dunfee, who ...

Man, good question I92 ... I would probably say Chesapeake, just because they seem to always be at the convo ..lol... BUt, I haven't been to the convo the past two years so I probably couldn't answer that question.

BTW ... IT WILL BE A 'SOUTHERN' BIAS, NOT EASTERN ... lol

Here ya go ... A realistic expansion for the TVC. Ohio Division: 1. Nelsonville-York 2. Athens 3. Alexander 4. Vinton County 5. Meigs 6. Belpre 7. Wellston 8. River Valley * (Or Warren, but I don't think they will leave the SEOAL) Hocking Division: 1. Trimble 2. Fed Hock 3. Waterford 4. Eastern 5. ...

I believe I watched Stanley carry the ball a few times this season, but they were mostly fullback dives, traps and counters ... Does he have any speed? I know he's pretty solid, carries some weight and seemed like he ran hard ... But speed is a huge plus! Since Athens doesn't ever have a punishing o...

What did I tell ya ... The addition of Turly could change their outlook in a hurry ... lol

You may be right floyd about physical size and size in general but you gotta remember they won 46-22 ... when your up by that much, you don't really put forth a 'tough' effort when your already killing a team ... lol ... and they still outrebounded NY 19-15 and forced 12 turnovers in 2 quarters whic...

Floyd ... I agree Southern did in fact hit 10 three pointers in the preview ... BUT ... That is because they were facing a 2-3 zone defense, what else were they supposed to do? They have the 'gunners' to launch the three, so if a team is gonna pack it in against em, why not eh? 10-for-18 behind the...

I don't know Buckeye ... I wouldn't go as far as to say Athens could win the TVC-Ohio, I would love it if they did, but man, I just don't know. They are really trying to turn the program around and have a few nice players returning, it's just a matter of getting those numbers up and getting a few mo...

Im in ozzie!!! BTW ... I will sponser a prize this year ... For the winner, I will give two free tickets to the SOUTHEAST DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES held at the convo .. Usually they have 4 games on one day, champiosnhip saturday. Plus, Ozzie will tell ya, i'll offer a few 'cold ones' between game...

#1 ... Waterford ... - Not overwhelming choice, but the league is a bit down IMO, they look to have the best chance I think. #2 ... Southern ... - This is my 'underdog' pick to win the hocking. Ive seen all the teams play thus far, not a full game, but through the preview and scrimmages and Southern...

What is the outlook for the 'Dogs in 2009? Who replaces Tope? Biggest question im sure. HARRIS (Jr.) is a very good QB, I like him to be one of the better QB's in the area next year. SHAD McCOLLUM (Jr.) - Is a nice athlete with speed and hands, question is, do you move him to tailback? Can 6'3 Tanne...

Scioto is hard to argue with ... Portsmouth West, Portsmouth, Wheelersburg, Minford, Lucasville-Valley Perry - Not to shabby either with Sheridan, New Lex and Crooksville. Athens deserves a little credit ... Trimble made it to week 12, Nelsonville-York almost beat Liberty Union in its playoff game, ...

I would have to give the coach of the year to ... 1st - Phil Faires ... He did one heck of a job this season ... adapting to his personel I thought was very very clever and humble on his part. Not many coaches will do that and stay stubborn to their own offensive philosophies. 2nd - Ryan Adams ... H...

QB - Grant Gregory - Athens (2002)

FB - Marty Exline -Jackson (1990)

TB - Justin Gail - Nelsonville-York (1992)

WR - Jarred Humphries - Jackson (2002) - Just to get him on the field.

WR - Donnie Johnson - Gallia Academy (2002) - Same as above

I hate to rank teams anymore, but what the heck, they always make for great conversation ... #1 ... The Alexander Spartans - They are just to deep, to loaded for any team in the TVC to dethrone. #2 ... Waterford - I haven't seen em play yet, just guessing here and going off last year and what people...

The Spartans looked great! Whitney is very, very good ... Heather McClain will be the 'wild card' for Alexander ... If she stays out of foul trouble, learns to use her height more, the team will be very tough to beat. Alexander is probably one of the 'deepest' teams I have seen thus far. Whitney Smi...
