Re: Boys Regional Semi Finals: Chillicothe vs. Vinton County

No-one at all said or implied that Chillicothe was/is classless. The team I saw tonight was incredible and certainly came into this game prepared for the Vikings. As a Viking Fan ( hence the name vikefan ), I thought it a tremendous compliment that a team as talented as Chilli is came as ready to pl...

Re: Boys Regional Semi Finals: Chillicothe vs. Vinton County

Congrats to the Cavs...great talent ! The Vikes were simply outplayed by a much better team. However, can anyone please explain to me why Chilli felt the need for Full Court pressure with a 40+ pt lead in the 4th qtr ? Seemed to be a great chance to get playing time for other players in expectation ...

Re: Boys Regional Semi Finals: Chillicothe vs. Vinton County

As has been the case during the entire "second " half of the season, folks are discounting the Vikings chances . Actually, the Viking squad has nothing to lose here...they have already been written off as a loss against the Chilli team. Their ball handling against full court pressure has i...

Re: 2/29 Greenfield McClain Vs. Vinton County

Words cannot express how grateful the Viking nation is to our basketball team and the pride we feel towards each of the players and coaches. This success did not happen overnight but was/is a process that involves so many people. From Bob Grillo and his amazingly dedicated volunteers who work selfli...

Re: Vinton County vs WCH @ the Convo. 2/22

Overall a well balanced scoring attack although the Vikes are going to have to improve against full court pressure. I thought that the refs might have combined hockey into the game tonight with the way Grillo was getting hammered hard on each trip down court. Finally, one foul was soooooooo obvious ...

Jake Prater and Andy Grillo were a sheer pleasure to watch. Jake had the breakout game that we all knew was coming and Andy Grillo puts the energizer bunny to shame. Although the shooting was ugly today, the thing I took away from the game was that the Vikings have a talented and deep roster of play...

Better get better sources or adjust your hearing aid Tressel, Meigs shot extremely well from the perimeter but the Vikes still prevailed by 20. Meigs has a great pool of talented long range shooters that will give others in the TVC problems as they mature. Nonetheless, congratulations to the Vikings...

The officials are there to ensure the safety of the athletes and maintain the integrity of the game by impartially enforcing the rules to the best of their ability. Yet every year we hear complaints( which if you discount 95% of due to poor losers) that demean the TVC and thus the efforts of the ath...

No excuse for not matching the efforts of the student athletes who deserve better. No respect for the TVC until we do all we can to rid ourselves of games where refs ( who couldn't/won't) work in quality leagues.

AKwhitewater...believe me when I tell you that our family counts ourselves as one of the biggest Dut Guthrie fans....it just sometimes wears on nerves when some folks speak as though the official voice of the Viking nation.
