Villa- Angela St. Joseph's VASJ outta Cleveland ...Friday morning at 10:30am ...

Congratulations to Coach Speed/Coach Evan Salyers !!! AND those "young" Fairland Dragons !!! on to the Big Show ... for a team that could legitimately have getting to the Final 4 in D3 as a TEAM goal before the season started - it takes a special TEAM to "reach" that lofty goal - Wow !!! outstanding - I couldn't be there in person tonight BUT I was listening the entire game via the online stream ... great second half ... I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there was a "Mr. VanHorn" sitting in the Cheap Seats tonight at the Convo that was smiling for 32 minutes by the way Kolin VanHorn played - great stuff - congratulations to both Mr, VanHorn "the elder" and Kolin VanHorn "the younger" it sounded like a great game played by the FHS big man on the inside tonight ... Best of Luck from Pfloyd here in the Hocking Hills !!!

... Absolutely ravensfan9 !!!! my bad on the omission ... nothing like "a little pressure" on that entire group of coaches ALL season and the post season LOL - wow ... good stuff !!! great TEAM and coaching staff ...

[ravensfan9]

Totally agree Pfloyd!! The expectations for this team were through the roof! They've lived up to them! That says a lot for the kids, coaches, and program.

I wasn't trying to criticize you...JD is a friend and just wanted him to get the props he deserves. You are a great fan of the game! I have nothing but the utmost respect for you!

...ravensfan9 ... I appreciate that you made sure that ALL of the coaches got their due recognition - I didn't take it as criticism at all ... never want to slight anyone especially the assistants who do so much whether that be preparing the team offensively/defensively/coming up with game plans vs the opponents - which in the post season has to be a nightmare with not much time to prep ... great job again by the entire staff and those kids who executed for the Dragons ... best of luck in C'bus !!!
