Re: Valley football 2024

Rumor is maybe not everyone returns next year? You also have to think how good can the burg kids really be leaving their for valley? I do think they have assembled a good staff, but wouldn’t count on everyone being back. Based on how much you been on here posting about it, seems like West’s whole 2...

Re: Valley football 2024

Unlike Mr Trojan I am a fan and a parent of younger Valley kids but I saw what he saw. They were very young with 1 senior but they played hard and got better each game. I don’t how many wins that turns into next year but they will be better and deeper. They have been lifting since early November an...

Re: 1/5/24 Wheelersburg @ SW

Webster gave up 17 offensive rebounds. Refs don’t matter when you play like that.

Jeeps will be alright as Burg a potential Regional team in D3. But definitely disappointed with their effort on the boards tonight.*

Re: Minford Football

Yeah, Minford may have to move on. Football offseason weights/training firing back up this week, and they still without a head coach. Not sure who option #2 is, but I'd be giving him a call Friday evening if Lester hasn't accepted by then.*

Re: South Webster 57 Fairland 53 (Spartan Classic)

pfloyd: great rundown as always! Webster starting to have that look of a team that can make a run to State. Roberts putting up all-state numbers. And they obviously well-coached with Persin and Fenton on the bench. Upcoming matchups with Minford and Burg going to be fun to watch.*

Re: Which SE programs added impact transfers this season?

Burg: Lattimore (from Portsmouth)

Portsmouth: Loper (from Clay)

South Webster: Timothy (not a transfer, but a foreign exchange student)

That’s main ones I can think of in Scioto County.*

Re: 2024 West Senators

I think the kids themselves start the rumors because they like the attention and the feeling of being courted. Not 100% sure on all the initials but a few do not live in the district. They would have to sit back half of season. Personally this is high school. Play ball where you are at. If you want...

Re: SOC2 2024

Welcome Coach Lester former asst. coach and OC of Cincinnati Maderia High School and now the new coach of Minford Falcon HS football. I think Minford did the right thing by going outside the region to get this hire. Agreed. Best of luck to the new coach and hope the Minford community gives the new ...

Re: SOC to vote on 3 Football Divisions (Thurs.)

I don't understand the expedience in getting 3 conferences for basketball and baseball where a split was not warranted. Competition in basketball and baseball was fairly even. Football is the only sport where there has been total dominance by a couple of schools and traditionally 2 others that have...

I don’t know who was pushing for it but I think folks were looking for a solution to good play in the conference. Well sounds like it was OH and NW and sorry but if that's the case that's not what the folks were looking for. They were looking for a pass to get to play lower schools so they could bu...

Re: SOC to vote on 3 Football Divisions (Thurs.)

Just don’t see any other option short-term other than SOC schools leaving. Oak Hill to TVC needs to happen because them cancelling conference games last year was not good for anybody. It altered playoff seedings in Region 19 to some teams’ benefit, and other teams’ detriment. Northwest seems like th...
