WOW ! Gave Another 1 away !

How did you give it away? Jackson led the vast majority of the game. Up 7 with 3:30 left?

[bighead]

Good come back ! Maybe OT ! One got away !

[svac83]

I wont say blue devils gave it away. and this is the best Jackson team i have seen in a while. But i will say this Blue Devil team right now should be beating Jackson at home or away. But they really cant seem to decide how they want to play. Once Peck entered the game unless he needed a quick breather. hey could of just feed him all night and as Jackson adjusted play off of that i think Blue Devils win going away. But they refuse to play that way except in spurts. it is very frustrating.... But Jackson played a great game enforced there will on them i give them total credit.

I think Jackson won all 3 games vs gallia . Time for Jackson to start beating up on gallia for a while .

bighead, Regarding your reference to Ed Thompson transferring to Waverly. Your reference is dead on the money, Ed transferred to Waverly from New Boston round about 1970. New Boston at that time had a team that probably would have made final four in Columbus if Ed would have played his senior year there, that's when you had just a couple divisions of schools. Your also right about Woody, Ed played 4 years with Buckeyes great linebacker I think he is still like 9th in all time tackles.Thanks bighead for recalling old memories .

blue devils looked very rusty and out of sorts tonight. good win by tigers but is going to be a disappointing season if blue devils play like that...

[bighead]

Think Ironton played in a Tour. Over the holiday break ? May be wrong !

[HoopsHotHead]

GAHS was leading after 3........what happened in the fourth?......25-8 in favor of Ironton.....comments?....thoughts as to why/how this happened

Gallia played a tough team, and a team with a great coach. LaFon adjusted to what we were running and we did not make adjustments. I can not wait until we play RV so we can make it two years in a row.

[HoopsHotHead]

I agree, LaFon is a great coach.....I also know that GAHS has some players that were ill and Peck has some ankle issues.....just curious.....

As for the RV/GAHS game.....too far ahead to even think about....

Best of luck to Coach Harrison, McCleland and Deel.....till we play you.....then GO RAIDERS!!!

Long season put this behind you move on! Back in the day at tank you was down a td before kickoff !

Blue devils were up 37-31. took ball down court and shot a 3 about 5 seconds into possession lead to a long rebound and a easy 2 a turnover on next possession a 3 pointer for Ironton. another bad shot by blue devils lead to a old fashion 3 point play by ironton. it is now 39-37 ironton and Gallia stated playing to extend the game and fouling with over 2 minutes left only down 3 or 4. Ironton made almost all their foul shots down the stretch. Blue devils were short handed but if when they were up 37-31 they would of decided to go with basic nothing but a layup offense they would of had a much better chance.

Thanks for the info svac83......best of luck to the Blue Devils!!!

[Skywalker]

I'd say the difference in the ironton game was free throws
Ironton 21-30. Gallia 5-6.

[bighead]

WoW ! I say it was.

[svac83]

Yea but 21 of those foul shots were in the last 5 minutes of game.. I know blue Devils were short handed that night but started fouling way to early

[bighead]

Thats Ironton for you!
