You’re right. St C also playing sat in the 4A title game.

OVAC 4A has the weakest showing I have ever seen. Would be willing to wager that 1A,2A,3A, and 5A Champs would cruise through this class. Should be a good game FF and Bellaire.

Fort Frye has put together a great season in pretty quiet fashion. This team is still relatively young, but are apparently executing well.

[rickoshay]

Two freshmen, Archer And Dalton are getting a lot of floor time and are a great asset to this team.
Archer is averaging 10+ a game, and Dalton is the fastest on the team, and is very "floor savy"
With the Jr. hi. having a lot of talent, things are looking good at The Fort.

[outerbanksjake]

Bellaire has two four year starters and two three year starters. Four starters average in double figures. Bellaire is not tall with tallest at 5'9. Their strength is non stop man to man full court pressure. Weakness little height , as mentioned above and almost no contribution from 5-6 and 7 player. Get Bellaire in foul trouble and you have them in trouble.

[efarns]

Fort Frye isn't going to put any pressure on Bellaire from a size standpoint. Stylistically, they'll be looking to control the pace and win with efficient offensive possessions.

[Tigerfan]

IMO... Bellaire will press FF into a game that will take out any game plan they worked up. If FF is an "Elite" team as their posters have said, they will win this game and roll through the Districts

Fort frye is not an elite team. They are a good team that at times can be very good. They can be pressured and it will be interesting which team gets the pace they want today

Final Bellaire 36, Fort Frye 34

[mhs95_06]

FF had three shots to tie or take the lead in the last minute, the last a trey attempt to end the game. Score did not change in the last minute. Bellaire pressure D put them in position to have FF need last minute heroic shooting to beat them, but it did not happen.

That was a close one, but Beaver Local came back in 4th quarter to beat St. Clairsville 52-51 in 4A title game.
