NW up 24

Did not see a blowout happening.

Northwest is well coached, they are also playing as a team.

20 point win for NW. Got a shot next week to go to the regionals.

Knowbody will admit it but Portsmouth won't be as good next year. I'm not sure Coach knew exactly what he was getting into.

Portsmouth will need guys to step up again like they did against Piketon. Breech & Loper both had nice offensive games. They’ll need to duplicate that against the Mohawks. Portsmouth likes to get out and play fast, and really press you on defense. I’ll be interested to see if NW can handle those 2 things. On the other hand I’ll be interested to see how Physical Portsmouth gets with NW and can Portsmouth defend the 3 ball, numerous teams have attacked the Trojans via the 3 this season, although I think they’ve gotten better at defending it. Should be a great crowd on hand at the Convo. Go Trojans!

Congrats to Northwest on the win. Portsmouth didn’t play well, but you have to credit the NW defense a lot, causing a lot of turnovers. Berry got his, but had absolutely no scoring help outside of Loper with a few and some garbage time buckets. Trojans took a ton of bad shots, were out muscled, missed a ton of free throws and could not defend the 3. I mentioned defending the 3 being a problem early in the season, they had done better but were exposed again in this game. Overall Portsmouth played very undisciplined basketball. Didn’t play as a team, a lot of complaining to the refs and just careless shots and passes, played with a lot of frustration. Brutal way to end the season. With that said it was awesome to get back to the convo under coach Lisath. Program is in good hands, just need some kids to come out and develop. Next year looks a bit bleak with a lack of talent and kids returning. Looking forward to the NW & Burg game next week.

Portsmouth has been inconsistent all year they would beat a team by 20 then turn around and get blowed out by by the same team imo portsmouth played horrible today they just looked out of sink and just happy to be there I'll give northwest credit for taking advantage of portsmouth woes but NW looked pretty darn good. Especially free throw shooting. Burg v/s NW gonna be a good one !! I'll take Burg in a close one

Who won’t admit it? Portsmouth loses a bunch of seniors, and their jv team and incoming freshmen class are both really down. Unless they can load up on multiple transfers, looking like a real tough 2-3 year stretch coming up in P-town.*

Good win by NW. NW may have played in the middle SOC this year but all their playmakers have played in the BIG SOC every year previously, so all the talk about about strength of schedule went out the window. Portsmouth had a great season they should be proud.

Their numbers are almost double to south webster who stayed in the good soc cause a harder schedule prepares you tournament . NW elected to play with the weak soc and talk smack all year long . Portsmouth wins big

Good call Casper!

You know how the wanker rolls , always throwing poop against the wall hoping for something to stick so he can say I told you so and makes him thinks he's smart

he predict Portsmouth to be below 500 at the start of the season so he had to hang around a long time to get his woody but his step brother will take care of it for him

Congrats to NW! This group of kids has been fun to watch since Jr High.

Not surprised they won, but I am surprised by the margin, NW has 2 REALLY good players and all 5 starters are good, they play well together and know their roles.

Posted: **Mon Mar 04, 2024 6:48 am**

biggest surprise of the day yesterday. NW played the best team ball at both ends. That was about as sorry of a performance that I've every seen from PHS, its hard for me to believe that there is no talent in that school on the hardwood. Because outside of Berry, I'm not sure many of those on the roster start for the other teams that played yesterday. More missed layups and blown defensive assignments than you could count.

Congrats to NW, executed the game plan to perfection

Posted: **Mon Mar 04, 2024 7:29 am**

I had to opportunity to see all the games yesterday. There were some good games. As far as the Northwest vs PHS. The better coached team, the more disciplined team, the smarter team and the team that executed the best won! In each of those areas it wasn’t even close. The NW coach had his kids prepared and did a masterful job with controlling tempo. I would say it was a master class in coaching.

Posted: **Mon Mar 04, 2024 7:43 am**

As stated earlier, Portsmouth, and all the OVC teams yesterday for that matter, hadn't played against defenses they saw yesterday. Northwest made their shots and played great defense. Berry got his, as normal, but their secondary scorers had no chance.

I am sorry you are correct people with any knowledge will admit it. Will Coach make it 3 to 5 years if he doesn't get some transfers or will he have had enough. He still never played very much press use 8 or 10 players and run run run. He has less of chance to do that next few season. It's easy to do all that and win when you have 8 or so athletes.

Agreed. Coach Scarberry has always been underrated IMO.
